I just got a phone call from my brother saying father was being airlifted to Columbia Hospital.

My mother found him laying unconsious on there roof. He was trying to install a TV antenna.

Long story short I was talking with my mother when the nurse came in and said he had a Massive stroke, I asked my mom how bad is it? Is he moving,etc.

She asked the nurse, and she didn't give my mom a response that I know of. My mother said "judging by the look on her face it isn't good" My mom started crying and then hung up the phone.

Please pray for my father. I'm leaving now to head up there.

My prayers are with you and your family Brian. My father has had 2 strokes so I've been in a similar situation.

I will have you and your family in my thoughts. I am going through a similar situation with my step dad right now; blood poisoning, kidney failure, staf infection, etc... all due to brain trauma. Definitely a shitty situation, I feel for ya.

Thanks for the kind words of support everyone. We really appreciate it. We will try to update everyone when we can. It hasn't sunk in with me yet, just feels surreal.
We are just finishing packing up to make the long drive up to South Carolina.
Tim - We will be thinking of your step father at this time as well. Keep your chin up. :)
Thanks again everyone.
