My dad has been hospitalized

Me and my dad was carrying out our old oven about a week ago (a big heavy iron old fashioned oven) it was very ackward to carry it and we had to take it in sevral phases, but we got it out eventually. That night he couldn't sleep and got a real pain in his side, he also got a fever later on. We though it had something to do with the lifting, that he strained himself. He went to the doctor, the doc said he had some sort of inflamination some weird place and gave him antibiotics. However, the antibiotics didn't work, he got worse and he also got very out of breath fast. He went back to the doc and he found out it was pneumonia, they also say there's a slight chanse of a small embolism (I think that's what you guys call it)

They say it's nothing really serious and it will most likely be OK, but it's never fun to get a phone about any family member being hospitalized when you're far away in another city.
 
Hey Karky,

I hope he gets better soon.
 
Oh man that's too bad, good thing he went to the doc to get it checked out.

I had pneumonia about two months ago and I was hospitalized for four days and then out of order for a bit after that... but I was ok after everything was done.
 
Hope your pop is okay. Interesting point about 2008. Yes, if had lived 100 years, he might not have survived and he definitely would not have survived 200 years ago.
 
doesn't work out with me no. We used to go at the same time sometimes back when I lived at home, but he does different stuff than I do.
 
Hope your Dad has a speedy recovery!

My Mom got pneumonia last year. She didn't believe she really had anything serious (because she didn't feel THAT bad), but even after getting treated, it was amazing how much more tired she was for quite a long time after. So it can be a long haul on the energy systems.
 
so sorry to hear about this Karky. hope he is better soon. like right now!

yer never alone
