    That's great news Rick! DoggyMama's dad went through something similar this week, but with him (kidney and lung cancer), fluid had built up around his kidney and was putting pressure on his lung making breathing difficult and put him back in the hospital. They went in and drained it off and that helped. Keeping your dad and your family in our prayers up here!

    Just left there...He's in better spirits....I showed him pics of a W C Scott London Best shotgun that came in the shop for an assessment and he loved it...

    His color is better as well as breathing...Looks like the cocktail they put in his IV is whupping that pneumonia...Thanks again for all the prayers and support....

    43 days...Three different hospitals, three different rehabs.....I don't know what to do guys....My heart hurts and I feel like I am on pause...Thanks to all of you for your support and prayers...I can't believe six weeks ago this man was walking around the New Albany Gun Show....I brought up my knife roll yesterday and he and my uncle and I kept passing them around and covering the roll with a blanket whenever the nurses would come in.....

    It's Scott County so they wouldn't have cared but it did make us three feel like outlaws.....They can't figure out what's wrong with him....He's in and out...They've done MRI and CAT Scan and saw nothing...They are trying to bring in a neurologist to see what's going on.....I'm here at the shop for now, too cold to leave the dog outside....Myself or Laura will head up in a bit to see what, if anything, we can do to help.....I hate seeing my mom hurt...I hate seeing my younger brother hurt...I hate seeing our wive's hurt....I'm tired of being tired...It started Friday...I hope it's just the meds....

    I haven't posted here about it for a bit.....It's just been too hard but I know many of you know my dad and I wanted to keep you up to date....

    Thanks brother.....I just left up there....The best we can figure out, and the neurologist is still coming in to check...We THINK it may be something called "ICU delirium"....It started Friday, was bad Saturday, in and out yesterday, and then full blown this morning....My uncle called me to tell me about the details, he went outside to call me, when he went back in dad had snapped out of whatever it was....Asked for food, lot's of food, and ice cream...It was the strangest thing I'd ever seen...He looked around at all of us wondering why we were all there at the same time...Said, "Is it Tuesday? When's IU play again?"

    I hope Hooiserdoc can chime in and tell me if he has every heard of this...As I was leaving mom said, "You know your dad don't want you putting him being sick on the internet..."

    I just laughed and told her "Too bad....This is my therapy and Hoosier gun owners across the state are praying for him..."

    then I told her not to tell him about this thread....

    Strangest thing....
