I got a call that my dad was in the hospital this morning.
Growing up, my dad was always the strong one. He was never sick. He never got hurt.
But in the last year, he's been in the hospital more than ever before. Back in winter, he had heart surgery. And now they think his appendix burst, and they are removing it this morning.
All weekend long, he complained that his side hurt. But, he continued to work on the farm, take care of the animals, and play with the kiddos. He could barely stand without doubling over, but he kept moving. This morning, the pain became unbearable.
We'll take any prayers or good thoughts that you can send our way. Because of the blood thinners, and other meds he's on, surgery has it's complication. Please keep him in your prayers.

He'll be in my thoughts..Some men are so amazing and it drives you insane when they won't tell you they are in pain
My thoughts and prayers are with you! I hope everything turns out OK.
Oh no! I'm so sorry Staci! You and your family are definitely in my thought!
If you need anything let me know!
I will say a prayer he will be ok!
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family !
Wow, that must be so scary for everyone. I can't believe he was still up and working. It's a dad's job to be strong, I guess! (In situations like these I guess it's everyone else's job to be strong.) My thoughts and prayers are with your family - I hope everything goes well!
I will keep your dad in my prayers. I hope that the surgery turns out alright without any complications.
you will all be in my prayers
Hugs. I'll be keeping your Dad in my thoughts and prayers.
Sending prayers your way! I hope that everything turns out well.
He and you are definitely in my prayers.
I will be praying for your dad and your family during this difficult time. I know how hard it can be to have a loved one in the hospital.
I hope your dad is on the mend. When my brother had his appendix out he had been vomiting and had stomach pain for a week...thought it was the flu. That appendix is so tricky!
He's got our prayers!
