Update: my brother says my dad is refusing to go to the hospital, but he's going to call him later and check on him. He plans to visit my dad in person tomorrow and, at the very least, get his guns.
This is FUCKED UP. I really can't even handle this.
I'm so sorry, Tep. That's a whole lot of not good.
If you are capable of doing it, do you think a call from you would convince your dad to go with your brother since you are the one that often helps him with medical issues? Is it possible a medication is causing the issues?
Timelies all!

sj, I'm sorry ltc had a bad tummy day. Mr. S was a bit wild this weekend, but no medical emergencies.
Man, if our safety guy isn't employee of the Year for 2020 I don't even know.
That's probably true most places, come to think of it.
I'm sorry, Steph. That is so stressful.
Oh, man, Steph. I'm so sorry but glad your brother is there to help deal with the situation.
I wonder if you should encourage your dad to 'play along' with your brother and prove to said brother that he has nothing to worry about -- see if that's a strategy that your brother thinks might help?
Yikes, Steph! I hope it's something as simple as a UTI (which can cause lots of crazy symptoms in the elderly!) and not anything worse.
JZ, I still can't stop thinking about how sucky this year has been to you. I'm so sorry.
