Send out good vibes for Aimee October 25, 2007 ~ 10:48 am
Posted by Julie in : Deep Thoughts , trackbackI just got a phone call from ESC, telling me that Aimee’s dad is in the hospital having emergency surgery. There’s a post over at Aimee’s blog telling what’s happening, at least as far as anyone knows at this point. Aimee’s family has been having a really crap year, and they really didn’t need something else to add to it. Send out some good thoughts, wishes, prayers, whatever, that her dad makes it through this okay.
ETA: I just talked to Aimee, and they still don’t know exactly what is going on. Her dad is still in surgery, and no one has come out to tell them anything. We’re not sure if this is good news (maybe they found something and are fixing it) or not, but she could really use all the love you can send her way. The family is all flying in, so she will be surrounded by them soon, but I think that she could use the support of her blog family as well.
ETA again: He’s out of surgery now - they found and repaired a quarter-sized perforation in his stomach. They think the perforation was a response to a neurological issue - he’s non-responsive right now.
ETA 3:22 PM EST: Aimee’s dad has woken up and is able to respond with nods to questions. He’s still intubated and pretty drugged up, but he’s definitely responding to them now - this is apparently huge for an ICU patient. Keep sending out the good vibes!!

I’ll head over there shortly.
