This morning my father was admitted to the hospital. At this time it is believed he might have pneumonia. He is 83 and has COPD. The hospital is going to test him for a Covid-19. Even if it is just pneumonia, due to his bad health he is at high risk.
Last week my first child was born. Since he lives in Virginia and can’t travel due to the pandemic. The thought that he may never meet his new grandson is killing me.
My father is a very good man and my best friend. So regardless of what you may think of me, I am asking for prayers. I don’t like to put my business out like this but I need all the help I can get.
Thank you.
#2 - He is in my prayers.
My Dad had COPD and when they came in and said he had to go on Hospice and it would be a matter of weeks, my heart broke. And it broke every day I would go visit and spend time with him until he passed 11 days later.
I know how I felt and I am sorry you have to feel the same.
God, I hope for the best. You are in my prayers and thoughts!
^^^^^ This ^^^^^
Nothing but respect for a man who seeks prayer in a time of need. You have my prayers for God's blessing and a full recovery for your father.
And anyway you can get a live video like FaceTime or Skype or even a photo. Go for it.
Hang in there and stay positive.
Hope your gets well!!!
John 16
You should go visit him ASAP any way you can, and G-d be with you both through this time that he may revel in the birth of your son with you.
Prayers wished for you both.
Well said. I'm pulling for him. My dad is 73 and is vulnerable too. He's STILL going into Manhattan everyday from Long Island. His immunity is shit and he gets bronchitis every year at this time of year like clock-work. My mom is 69 and diabetic too, so I know how you feel a little. God save him and everyone else that's ill.
