Peeking Between the Pages

Hi everybody, I just wanted to thank all of you for your well wishes and prayers for my Dad. He came out of his surgery good. He had a knee replacement so they have to watch for infection, blood clots and such-I guess the next 72 hrs is critical for him. I was at the hospital all day and just came home for some dinner and will head back for a few more hours. I thought I would get all this reading done while he was in surgery but to be honest I was too worried even to read. So, not sure where I’ll be for Thursdays noontime chat but hopefully I’ll be able to get some reading done tonight and tomorrow.

Anyhow, I will answer comments tomorrow. For today I just stuck them in a separate folder. I think I may be a little too tired later for the computer but I didn’t want any of you to think I’d forgotten you.

Again, thanks for the well wishes and prayers. They are greatly appreciated.

  1. Oh Dar, I was unaware of this. I’m glad the surgery went well and will pray for a speedy recovery. Make sure you take care of yourself, too! 🙂

  8. Glad to hear your dad is doing well. Get some sleep.

    How are you and J. Kaye working the noontime chat? Get of you discuss what you have read as of the day you post on your blog?

  9. Hey Dar that was good news regarding your dad…still sending prayers your way for you, your dad and your family.

  10. I really hope he recovers as soon as possible, Dar. You and your family will be in my thoughts. *Hugs*

  11. I hope your dad makes it through the next 72 hours unscathed. I have a hard time reading in hospitals. They are too nerve racking.

  12. I am very sorry about your Dad. You and your father will be in my prayer.
    G-d Speed.

  16. Focus on family! That’s what is important. So glad he’s doing well. Thank you for keeping us posted.

  17. Dar, I am so glad to hear that everything is going well with your
    Dad – I will keep you both in my thoughts and prayers for his speedy recovery.

  19. Thanks to all of you for your prayers and hugs. You all are so great. Dad was able to get up today and move around so that’s good. They’re giving him some pretty good pain killers though so he’s in la-la land most of the time (he doesn’t do pills well). So, we’ll see. He probably has at the minimum one more day in there.

    Bree, I’ve been reading and then post about what I think of the book and such. J. Kaye is really awesome with coming up with the questions and videos-my weakness. I think we balance each other out nicely.

  21. Dar,

    Glad to hear that your dad is doing well and that’s a great sign that he is up and moving around!
