Precious and Fragile Life

Hi Everyone. There will be no real post from me today. My father had a heart attack yesterday. Fortunately, he got fast and good treatment. Consequently, he's stable and in good spirits.

Yesterday, I posted photos and videos of a beautiful sunrise. If you haven't checked out that post, please do. I am appreciating each moment of life as much as I can. I know that I'm lucky that I get to live to see another sunrise with my Dad on this Earth.
Life is precious and fragile. Let's all make the most of this day.

As you may imagine, I'm not sure what each day will bring as we move forward from what happened yesterday. Please don't worry if I go silent for a little while.

    You are all so wonderful. I just got back from seeing him, and he's recovering much better than I expected. He's still in ICU but should be out of that unit tomorrow. Thank you!

    Prayers for your dad and for you and family. My hubby has survived 3 heart attacks, 2 stints and 1 open heart by pass surgery. the first was in 2002 and each time he got better and better after treatment. the last heart surgery was 2007 and then last year he had blocked arteries surgery and a stroke. he is 81 and today is just like he used to be... My prayer for your dad is that he will come back strong from this Just like Bob did. I do understand the stress on your part completley
