Dad is going back to the hospital

My dad is going back to the ER this morning. Mom came over this morning and said his weight is up. We were really hoping and praying that the new pill the doctors put him would work.
I don't know if there is any other water medication out there that will work. His kidneys are really taking a hit from ALL the medication that he is on.
Please this morning as mom and dad drive to LA VA Hospital that the doctors working will be able to figure something out for him.

My Dad!

My dad has been in the hospital since June 4. He retained to much water from his congestive heart failure. Since he has been in they have been able to get 25lbs off, but they are wanting to get about 10 more pounds off. I have come to the conclusion that this disease is nasty. It is so hard watching him go through this.  He wants to to so much, but he can't because his gets short of breath, to tired etc... the list goes on. I do have to say through all of this he never complains. Yesterday the doctors started him on a new medication hoping that it would bring his weight down, but this morning he was the same weight as yesterday morning. We are waiting for the doctor to come in to say what the next plan is going to be.
Dad has been in the hospital 6 times since March 30! That is the day my brother passed away.  This has been a hard couple of months! Please keep our family in your prayers!

Dad back in the hospital

I am sure everyone who knows me knows my dad is a very sick man. The doctor lowered the dose of one of his MANY medications that keeps the water off of him on Thursday. Well, as of yesterday he had gained almost 10 pounds. He woke up this morning having a very had time breathing. My mom loaded him up and took him to the ER at the Veterans Hospital in LA. He is still there. We don't know quite yet what the game plan is. I will keep everyone posted.
