New prayer request for my dad:
Ever since the operation my dad has had hiccups non-stop, and today he was throwing up old blood, and told my mom that he felt like he was going to die (and for my dad, when he says something like this, he means it. He's certainly not melodramatic, and actually has a very high threshold for pain). My mom was going to drive him to a specific hospital, but when my dad couldn't even stand up my mom called 911 for an ambulance. Turns out he has pneumonia (and this is now about the 7th time in his life that he's had it ><), and needs to be treated with anibiotics. Thankfully, he's doing a lot better now, though he's absolutely exhausted from getting almost no sleep at all for the last several nights (he couldn't even sleep in his own bed the last few nights because of acid reflux). Normally he'd be able to come home, but the doctor still doesn't know why he was throwing up old blood, so they're keeping him overnight. I know God's protecting him and will see him through this, but he still could really use as many prayers as possible so God will keep protecting him and quickly help him through this ordeal and heal him. It's going to be tough to sleep tonight knowing he's not home. Please also pray he'll be able to come home tomorrow. I think I'm going to skip classes tomorrow so I can go see him.
