Some (hopefully not terribly) bad news

Mar 30, 2012 08:31

Dad has to go in to the hospital to have part of his colon removed in May. He has ulcerative colitis, and this is part of the colon that has accumulated scar tissue. (About a foot's worth.) Hopefully it's nothing worse than that, but I'm scared for him. I trust that the doctors know what they're doing.

He'll be in the hospital for five days, and will be on a six week medical leave from work. He'll be getting medical pay, but I'll have to work a little harder to help make ends meet around here.

It may not seem like it, but I'm more worried about this than I'm letting on.

health issues, family stuff
