As we were literally about to leave the house for our Sunday fathers day service we had a call from my sister to say that my dad was in hospital having emergency brain surgery.
What happened was that he went in to hospital for a routine operation on his hand. Whilst being prepped he felt ill and complained of a migraine. The doctors were concerned and arranged for him to have a CT scan. This revealed a large hemorrhage and he was rushed for emergency surgery. During the surgery they found a blood clot which they removed.
Dad’s now in a high dependency unit. He has regained consciousness, but is obviously still very ill. Doctors are monitoring him very carefully, and as he gets stronger will start tests to discover what (if any) are the ramifications of the hemorrhage.
Please do pray for him (he’s called Geoff), my sister, Helen his partner, and us.
