Need prayers! UPDATED

So I am home today because last night my dad collapsed and we rushed him to the hospital....I thought he was having a heart attack so I called immediately. I just got back from the hospital, they are keeping him there to monitor him because when the EMTs were here his heart beat was irregular....so they want to make sure he doesn't have one later.... That was my worst nightmare...I heard my mom calling me because my dad got up to go to the bathroom and he said he felt dizzy and laid down.... he had no pain and I don't think he passed out but as soon as I opened my door and saw him on the floor I ran to the phone. So now we wait. I am so tired...I have been up since 4!
I just freaked because never have I seen my dad need help....it is like dads are always supposed to be strong and healthy and to see him being wheeled out of the house was too much! I am just praying that everything is fine.

THANKS FOR LISTENING! (or reading )

Well he seems to be fine....they are keeping him in the hospital overnight for observations but they said his heart returned to normal beating and he hasn't felt dizzy since. He ate lunch and he is his usual self! It felt so good to see him comfy and acting like he always does! He may have to take some meds for his irregular heart beat but as long as it wasn't a heart attack I am good! They said he may have just got light headed....but his dad died of a heart attack so when I saw him laying there that is what I thought. But I still have my fingers crossed for him!

Thank you so much for all your well wishes....I can't even tell you how much it helps! And if you or any of your FH's are EMTs give them a huge hug for me! The EMT's last night were wonderful!!!

oh my god HUUUGS~!!! i hope everything is ok!!

I can so sympathize.... i've been through the 'dad being rushed to the hospital' thing tooo many times.. he's had 2 strokes and he's only in his 50s!!!!

And then he calls me this morning.. at work and says... 'I couldn't get in touch withmom im leaving for work now... but I had one of those BAAAD HEADACHES.. those ones that were symptoms of the STROKES.. but I have no other symptoms and im laid down for an hour.'

so of course i was a nervous wreck.. because it feels like 'repeats of those other scary times' so I told him to call me as soon as he got to work and now he has to call mom and i when he leaves work tonight!!!

I can sympathize with you so if you need to vent... FM ME!! im here

So sorry to hear about your dad. We had a scare similar to that with my dad last year right before my sister's wedding. You'll be in my thoughts.
