My Dad is not doing good. My parents are on a cruise right now. We all tried to talk my Dad out of going but he wanted to go as his brother and sister were going and they’ve never all been on a trip together.
My Mom just called this morning to tell us my Dad is in the hospital on the ship and they’re transporting him to the Seattle hospital when they dock tomorrow.
They say his lungs are full of fluid, his blood pressure is high and his oxygen level is 88. They almost intubated him last night but he improved enough that they didn’t have to.
What is happening? His choice is to get a trache. Is that what we’re looking at now? I’m so devastated. This all feels like it’s happening so quickly.
