yeaaah...so i gave in..i figure this way people can be updated on my dad and whatnot wihtout me havin to say the same thing over and over... so lets just start from the beginningo f the month...

so my family and i went to florida...! it was super fun..all my brother and i did was get up late, eat breakfast, go down to the HUGE pools and hottubs and lay out/swim/lay out/swim, etc. so then we'd go back upstairs, make some lunch (bc my paretns were off doing whatever) and cool off for a lil bit..then go back downstairs and repeat the morning's events, then come in a little early, wear actual clothes -- sometimes i wore my bathing suit still...oops -- and then went out to dinner with our parents. then wed come home, go online for a few/watch tv, then go back downstairs for the hot tubs. yes, plural. it was quite possibly ne of the best vacations of my life. ever. mainly because we never thougth my dad would be able to go on vacation again, but we were wrong -- and i'm super happy about that! so then when we came home, my mom was peeling ridiculously..my brother and her were like allergic to the sun i think, so they wouldn't stop scratching themselves and had little red dots all over : EW. and i was just REALLLLLLLLY dark....i even had to get new makeup! yikes..! but whatever..thats startin to fade away, althoguh i peeled a bit too...boooo.... but yeah, os then after that everything was goin well...and then this past weekend (july 24th) my dad hadn't been feeling well.. so we took him to the hospital on sunday bc he couldnt breathe normally, so we ended up findin out that the stents they had put in the vessels of his heart had clogged up again...(IN FOUR MONTHS, mind you) so then they kept him there and the next day they put in a new, bigger, stent...and he was feeling healthy..so the next day(when he was supposed to come home) at 630AM his sugar came down to 25. normally, your sugar should be at 100ish. yeah, for diabetics -- thats bad f-ing news. so they ahd to basically feed straight glucose into his veins with the IV and he was back to normal. so they decided to just keep him another day. so then the next day i went in, and he waited allllll day, and so then finally the doctor came and was liek 'well...i can tell you that he could be in much worse shape, but because he's got twin vessels coming off of the left artery (or something) he's alive. so basically i advice him getting a bypass for just one vessel, and the other cardiologist doesnt believe it necessary' so then we were like 'uhh...great, oaky so then were basically just walkin on thin ice here...if he does have another heart attack, what if this time it IS fatal..?' so the doctor calmed us down and was like 'well..coem into my office this week and we'll do stress tests periodically and whatnot,' so then we brought him home. phew. thats all, folks! ummm with me : i went to the gin blossoms/vertical horizon concert last night SOLELY because it was only $5, and i didnt have anything to do! so yeah..however, i'm going to WARPED TOUR on sunday!!!! and im OH SO EXCITED about that!!! then hopeuflly holland this week? its all up to dana :-)
