Dad is still bleeding on the inside... but they can't find where he's bleeding from.

*headdesk*

The doctor is keeping him in the hospital until the specialist comes in tomorrow.

Fuck, I hate the medical system in this country.
Dad is back in the hospital. A stitch where they took the vein in his lower leg came undone and started leaking blood into his leg, which is mildly infected. They've given him IV antibiotics, and started blood transfusions until a specialist can come in tomorrow.

It's likely he'll have to have surgery to fix where the stitching came loose. I'll have more details on that after Mom talks to the doctors.

Gods, I just wish things would go back to normal...
Here's the latest on Dad:

He's in good spirits at the hospital. After talking with the doctors, they've moved his triple bypass surgery to next Wednesday or Thursday. I do not know if he had an actual heart attack while in the car, but it took TWO nitro pills to help him on the way to the hospital. The first one barely made a dent.

As you can imagine, that scares the shit out of me.

Thanks to everyone who's given their support. I really REALLY appreciate it, especially after the last two days. I"ll keep you all informed of any changes.
As if life hasn't given me enough to deal with...

Dad is back in the hospital. He was feeling chest pains when he picked up mom from work. The hospital is keeping him overnight for observation, so it's probably not another heart attack.

Still... I didn't need this...
