Hello ladies,
My dad is in the Critical Care Unit in a PA hospital. He is having brain swelling and the doctors don't know why. He has a compromised immune system from the lupus he has been plagued with for 30 years along with a host of other health problems. We live around 3 hours south of him and my siblings are about 3 hours west. We are all on a wait and see about his condition. It's very nervewracking just waiting to see what the next phone call means and trying to keep it together for my kids. My dad insists that no one should come up there until they know more, but it's tough just waiting here. Please if you could just say a prayer for my dad and his doctors. Thank you. I haven't been on here posting as much as I used to, but I always keep you ladies and your intentions in my prayers.

Thanks so much, ladies. My dad is having a spinal tap today to see if what's attacking his brain is an infection or his lupus. We think the lupus would be worse because there is no cure. But I'm sure neither is good, at least an infection would be treatable with meds, though. Please keep the prayers coming. Thank you.
