This morning at 8:00 Dad was getting a shower and had a mini-stroke. He has been in bed unconscious since then, unable to talk, wake up, or eat food. He was starting to come out of it. His heart rate was 78, blood pressure normal, oxygen normal. This was actually the second one this week. The first one was much milder and only lasted a couple of minutes.
The manager at the house beliees that he will probably continue to have these and then one morning they will go into his room and he will be gone. We thought this was the end of the end, but it looks like he will be with us a little longer. Amy was going to drive up, but once he started to come out of it, we decided she should put it off until he has a major one. The difference per the hospice nurse is that he would NOT be coming out of the stroke.
I will go over there tonight to see how he's coming and keep ya'll informed.
