can I have lots of them
my father has been admitted to Sloane with pneumonia and fluid in his lungs. I had visited in the beginning of the week and I noticed he was a bit pale and wasn't really eating and he was having bathroom problems but he kept saying he was fine. My mom had a stomach virus for a few days this week and he seemed to have been catching that but yesterday he had a fever, lost his voice, lots of phlegm, and had labored breathing. My mom doesn't drive and she fought with him to go to the hospital and he refused so this morning at 6am she phoned me because he was having extreme difficulty breathing and that he wanted me to come up and take him to the hospital. When I got there he said he didn't think he could get in my car for the drive and wanted an ambulance so we called the police asking whether there was a private ambulance that would take him into the city and they said that they would send the local and regional and one of them would take him. When they both got there they were very concerned about his oxygen levels and wanted to take him to St. Anthony's saying that they thought he had pneumonia but with his medical history St. Anthony's does him no good. soo he told me he still wanted to get to Sloane so I told him he'd have to get in my car which he said ok... ambulance people were clearly doing there job was giving us a hard time but he's of sound mind and that's what he wanted and I knew many hospitals on the way so I agreed with him. The tipping point for me was when one of the ambulance guys was like St. Anthony's will get him an x-ray within a couple hours and uhm no while waiting for an xray we'd be at Sloane. Soooo with great fury I made it to Sloane in the City in under an hour from Warwick. They will be keeping him and have started anti-biotics and fluids to get him nourished since he hasn't been eating. Knock on wood his blood counts have been good for someone who has been on chemo as long as he has so hopefully he will fight this off asap.
My mom is still with him and Brent and I came home we are going to nap, shower, and go back later this afternoon.
Thank you so so so so much

Lots and lots of t&p coming your way. Hopefully the antibiotics and fluids will do the trick quickly and he'll be feeling better soon. ((Hugs))
