Thanks for caring Toogie.I am waiting for an update too - he is in South Africa and I am in Australia. It makes it so difficult. Yesterday my mom went to visit and my dad was gray in colour and in so much pain. He actually nearly passed out. You will not believe it - They lifted him up and made him try to STAND while they made the bed!!!!! He has a broken back bone!!!!!! The wounds also starting bleeding profusely again. When the doctor heard this he was FURIOUS. He went out and ordered them to make place in the Intensive Care Unit for him, so hopefully he will have better care. He lost so much blood that he needed an urgent transfusion. The doctor pricked my father's finger and no blood came out!! I will let you all know as soon as I know something. The good news is that up to now there is no infection in the brain which was a huge concern. Please continue to pray for him. He sure needs all the prayer he can get. I forgot it was Fathers Day. Here in Australia, Fathers Day is in September.
