My farther just had a Massive Stroke

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.

-Brian

Sucks to hear. I can only imagine that your family is as warm hearted as you are. I wish you and your family the best.

Re: My farther just had a Massive Stroke

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.

Re: My farther just had a Massive Stroke

(This is Jenny)
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.

Re: My farther just had a Massive Stroke

I hope all turns out well for your family, Brian.

My grandmother had a very serious stroke a few years ago so I can feel your pain.

Re: My farther just had a Massive Stroke

Sorry to hear. My g/f (who is 20) had a stroke a couple years ago. I hope that he recovers, and that you and your family pull through it. Wish you all the best.

Re: My farther just had a Massive Stroke

Brian- My thoughts and prayers are with your Dad and the rest of your family. I met your Mom that time I was over to your place when you were packing up. I can only guess that your Dad is as nice of a person as your mom. I pray for the best.
