11月21日 A Father's Nightmare "update"My mind is starting to come back slowly to normal; if one can be normal with a sick kid. Good news, not great but I will take it. I worked a full shift, hoping that someone would call and update me on Krystal. So hearing nothing made my day a rather anxious one to say the least. So as soon as my shift ended I headed for the hospital. Got to the room just in time to see her specialist and got to listen in. They stuck a camera down her throat and took a look see. They took some samples of some stuff they wanted to look at closer. But for tonight her husband is back up north to take care of the dogs and go to work. But for tonight she is under my arms once again, like a steel curtain nothing will bother her this night. She is all bruised up from where all the I.V.'s got plugged in. But other than that I will get out my sleeping bag and get comfy on the floor...LOL. Come Monday she has more tests scheduled, but that is on Monday. So the first thing she asks dear old dad is to make her "egg and bread" (a slice of bread with a hole cut out by using a water glass, fried with the egg in the hole of the bread with colby and american cheese on top) I've been making them for my daughters as my mom did for me. For at least tonight I feel a small victory, a small one, yet a victory none the less. I thank you all for your prayers and well wishes. For a moment I lost my faith but I had help from some friends that brought it back. You will never know what it is like until it happens. One day the nurses with no answers and frowns on their faces. And the next day, just the look on their faces told me all I needed. Never doubt the power of many voices calling upon He that has no name... Peace to You and My Thanks to The Almighty Mark 11月19日 A Father's NightmareA Father's Nightmare I've lived these past years with the knowledge that nothing could harm my daughters. Since her birth, she lay under my protection. She used to use my beard as her own private swing. I watched her grow from dad's little girl to dad's big girl. Married and a school teacher; she became the second woman with my name to graduate from college, and become a teacher. She like many others are good daughters of the church. A fact in this day and age is quite amazing. Yet for her this did not surprise me. Never in any type of trouble with the law. Nor did she ever bring grief to my door. If not for her mother I could love no woman more than my daughters. She stopped work today and said "daddy I am checking into the hospital" my heart sank and that feeling down deep in the pit of my gut, what evil has come to me. Seems her Doctor checked her out at the office and told her to go straight to the hospital. Surely He that has no name would not allow harm to come to my daughter. I am angry, the hospital, says it will take two hours to type her blood. When the perfect donor is waiting by this terminal. You see the blood center loves me, or should I say they love my "Iron count". Red Cells tons of them . How can a college educated woman not know her blood type. No this not one of my writings as I am in a very bad mood. I have tried to stay positive, and think good thoughts. I have tried to pray, but the prayers turn to angry words. He that has no name would not bring this pain upon me. My daughter is frightened, like the little girl who once used to have bad nightmares and crawl into daddy's bed. Now it is I who is having a father's nightmare, his child lay in a hospital bed and my protection means nothing. She is my daughter and for the first time I feel truly helpless, as her fate lay in the hands of doctors. Still I can not go to Him, for my worry, has changed to an all consuming anger, truly a Fathers Nightmare..... I forgot one little fact, her blood count is less the n 6 it should be Way higher. I will see when I get there. Peace Mark Update on My Daughter Krystal.. Last night I did not sleep well as one can imagine I grow weary with all these Medicos and the lack of answers. One of the finest Hospitals in the state is 20 min by chopper and I have a notion to get her the heck out of this hack town. But her mom will not hear of it as she would have to get a hotel room, Like I really care right now about money. Ok back to the update, Krystal had three full units of whole blood and one of Platelets. That is four in total I just wish she was my blood type instead she is her mothers. My local blood bank loves me as I have so much iron in my blood you could use it to build another tall building and no I can't leap over it; I just have the iron to make the steel. Her blood count is now 10.5 which is much better. But her blood pressure is not holding. She was 120 over 75 this morning at 6am and now she has back slid to 90 over 65 still not too bad yet but it is worrisome. The CAT scan showed nothing; so tommorow comes the MRI and then maybe we will know where all the blood is going. Her liver stats are also of some concern, as her limpets are elevated. But I think that can be caused by the low Iron count from the past 4 weeks. I am holding together so far. When I came home my wife was still at the hospital. I open the door to find my two grand kids on their own as their father had fell asleep. They where both crying , there was a crystal globe on the table and it was broken all over the kitchen floor. They could have ran and hid, but these two brave (but rather stupid) kids where picking up the broken glass in their bare feet. I have never been prouder of both of them. Still can't figure out how they did not cut their feet to shreds. So I dried their tears and then set about the clean up, took out the rugs and chairs off the floor and then proceded to get the rest of the glass up. I'll buy one just like it and no one has to know. I find it odd that as upset as I was about my daughter; the pride I have in my two grand kids sorta erased the thoughts of my Krystal in that bed. I am sorry I have not been by to thank you all in person, but I find myself with my mind unable to much of anything right now. I thank you all from deep within my soul; for your thoughts and prayers. Peace to You All Mark 11月14日 Dog bites the TankDog Bites the Tank Just when I thought nothing could get worse. I have no luck at all these days. Today at work one of those funny looking little tiny dogs bit the tank. I did not even think he broke the skin' until the owner left. It was then I noticed that my had four little holes with blood coming out. Now I have about six days before I have to start those stupid rabies shots. Oh and by the way they hurt like hell. At least they did 20 years ago. Our video surveillance is top notch. So the license number is not a problem. Please dog owners make sure you dog gets his rabies vaccine. But until I find this guy and his dog; the count down begins. T- minus six days and counting. Peace to All Mark 11月12日 I Don't CareI Don't Care Today was like any other and at the same time different. This is November in Wisconsin; the weather however is in the 50's and 60''s. This is not a normal day of Wisconsin weather this time of year. My mind was off wandering, admiring the sky, the leaves, just about everything was perfect. I then realized I was almost out of gas. Into the next gas station; usually I plan to get to my speedway where the bonus points add up rather fast. I then went in to pay at the register; and to my surprise a young lady in her late teens perhaps maybe 20 held the door open for me. This in and of itself was a little odd. For I am usually the one holding open the door for a lady. As I was walking in I noticed a car pull into the space marked ""disabled parking" I dislike the term they use so I change it a little. However she had no sticker or temporary tag displayed. This is to let others know that you are able to park in that space. Then I noticed that she was with child maybe 7months along. I thought to myself she must need to use the restroom. I was mistaken, she bought a bottle of coke and cut in front of about three of us in line. This did not offend me. What did offend me was the fact that she was using a parking place meant for someone with a disability. As I was leaving a man about forty was in a little mini van. I spoke to him and said ""nice handicapped" sticker she has there. He looked at me and then looked at the car. His reply caught me off guard. And I quote " I don't care it is none of my business" . Thought I to say something else , but I did not as I could see in his face someone that really didn't care; about anything. I thought to myself how sad; to grow old not caring about anyone or anything because it is none of my business. My friends would not we be better searved by caring a little more for our fellow man. One would hope that if more would show a little care for others, would that not make our world a better place. I mainly wonder why we show not even a simple little old fashioned courtesy. Still I wonder how a young man in his prime could not care about anything as it was "none of his business" . My friends we must care for others if we are to continue as a race, the human race. I Do Care..... Peace to you all Mark |
