Today was a bewildering day full of what if's and maybes peppered with should this be's. The kids are playing their various games oblivious to the plight of the elders.
This morning held lots of discussion and various scenarios. So far, Patriarch Bill has decided that on Tuesday they will remove his defibrillator. Then he will spend 6 weeks in a rehab center around people who could help him if his heart went south or stopped and they are capable of working on him. IF the infection goes away in that 6 weeks they will implant a pacemaker instead, keep him on lifetime antibiotics if the surgery goes well.
We are all buzzing. There are naysayers, hopefuls and those terrified of losing their dad. Who can know what is the right course? He no longer is active in the LDS Church and is in fact critical of the Church. He has no other religious affiliation and I fear for his bleak look into his life after death.
I pray over and over for his recovery. He doesn't seem to realize the many family member that look up to him and for him to help with his wisdom.
Please, dear Angels, whisper strong into Bill's ear and swim in his dreams; assure him of the right course of action. No matter what is, we all will be here.
