S**t does happen

Dad's still in hospital, was so hard to see him lying there so helpless and strugling even to talk. He has pretty major burns, but he's doing well considering. He went in for skin grafts this morning, so it's just wait and see if they take.

When something happens to a family member it just shows you how much you love them and how much you'd struggle to be without them.

I've just spent a week with Mum at the hotel so that i can support her and visit dad in hospital. So hard to see your family member in pain. It's going to be a long road ahead. But he should pull through. but now i'm home i find it so hard to be away from dad, because i don't know how he is. And i can't see him for myself. but gotta work to earn a living. but hopefully i will fly back up and see him soon.

Hope your father is better soon esp.

In reply to your entry in my diary, my colleagues have been dobbing me in. This is the first time I have done it and probably the last. There were people at the desk when she was on the mobile. The boss tells you who have dobbed you which I think causes us some trouble at work.

I know what it like to have a family member sick and you can't be there. My father died of prostate cancer last year and I couldn't be wih him as I live more than 500ks away. Hope your father will be on the mend soon.

It must be so hard for you to leave your Dad when he is still so bad, but he is in the best possible hands.
It might be a good thing for you to have a break and fly back when you can, refreshed to spend some more time with him. You will hopefully see some improvements when you go back that you haven't seen while there this time.

Yes it is hard to see loved ones in so much pain and being unable to help is an awful feeling.

Keep in close touch with your Mum, and she can keep you updated with your Dad's progress, it will make you feel better and more informed.

Chin up, and all the best for a speedy recovery for your Dad.

Glad to read dad is making progress and you have been there for a week. Yes it is quite amazing how an accident/illness causes family members to get us all together to think about the person, the good times we have had with this person and ensure they are doing okay.

Go Esp!!!
