Default Purr request for my dad

Cheryl wrote:
My dad is going into surgery tomorrow morning. I talked to him and
my mom tonight, and as expected, they are both apprehensive and
scared. My dad has practically turned into a skeleton. He can't
eat, can't sleep and this has been going on for a long time. I sent
him some of my ambien via mail but he hasn't told me if he tried any
to help him sleep and I'm not asking. It's up to him if he wants to
use it.
My worries are that so many I know (elderly) who go into surgery end
up with staph infections, or the malnutrition leading up to surgery
makes them vulnerable. He passed all of the pre-surgery tests but
what does that mean? Anyway, my mom is very worried and my dad even
said he is, and he doesn't normally disclose that sort of emotion.


Purrs on the way.
