Two days ago my family was gathered at the hospital,they had taken my dad off the ventilator but, he couldn't breath on his own.They put him back on it and read him his last rights. My mom had almost given up she just didn't know what to do but us kids said don't give up yet. My mom has been staying at my house threw all this. It was a long night and for me and mom pretty much a sleepless night.We were driving to the hospital early Tues morning when my sister call my mom from the hospital,my dad was off the ventilator, sitting up in bed and talking to my sister. Although he was not making a lot of sense he was breathing on his own. Only 10 hours earlier he had been given last rights.Today they moved him to CCU into his own room and has a lot of the tubes out of him. We are still waiting on the results to see if they got all of the cancer but today he is here, still pretty sick and in the hospital but, alive. That's one reason my dad is my hero and why i believe in prayers. to be cont.
