Request for good thoughts and prayers Hi Friends. Now is my time for this. Just got off the phone literally 2 mins ago with a hospital in Europe, that my father suffered a stroke today and is in a critical condition. This is totally unreal for me... 10 mins ago I was thinking about how to wrap up my current work stint here in Singapore. After an interesting promise from my ex-gf a couple days ago that she would visit me here this weekend before I fly back to the US, and then canceling it referring to the recent earthquake in Malaysia. Then a student who promised to work in one of our projects this summer, canceling it. I did not have a min of sleep last night and it's early morning here. And then the phone call from Europe... I've never asked for sympathy like this before here, but I would like to now... Am trying to arrange changing my flights so that I can stop again in Europe and see my father. Hopefully. Thanks for listening. |
Prayers going up for you dear Haennie - and for your father. May God stand next to you as you face this. Please let us know what happens. :hug: |
Dear Haennie, many good thoughts and prayers for you and your father. Remember to keep breathing. :hug: |
All my prayers go out to your Dad and you Haennie :hug: I hope you can feel the SR love here from all your friends. D |
I'm very sorry about your father's condition, haennie. You're in my thoughts and prayers. |
Oh, Haennie. Big hugs to you. You are a wise, compassionate friend here. I join others in sending you and your father kind thoughts and prayers. You're a good daughter, my friend. |
I send out my prayers to you and your father. |
Praying for you and your father. Have a safe trip. You already know you've got a great support system here at SR if you need it. |

Thanks so much, my dear friends Dee, I do feel the SR love... more deeply than I ever could in early sobriety last year. Does that mean something? This happened suddenly, but I should say it happened at the easiest time possible for me regarding the past few weeks. Even though emotionally... the last week or so for me was though, as though I sensed something very bad was going to happen... Anxiety all day and night, insomnia, etc... I never believed in omens or premonitions, but I did feel very weird during the last week, often in ways I did not know what to do with it. So fortunately I'm good to go work-wise. And just booked a flight that will take off in ~3 hours. Only one transfer, and I should land in my home city very early tomorrow morning. I called the hospital and they let me see my dad in the morning tomorrow. I really hope there won't be any problems with the flights, but given that I am flying from Singapore to a big city in Europe, there should be options regardless. My dear friends... so good to have the practical stuff arranged for the coming day. I'm supposed to be exhausted, but I am not. Will continue to pack, take a shower, and then head to the airport. Thanks so very much again for all the immediate loving support... I did not tell all this anyone else yet in my private circuit. I think there is a reason why I told you guys first :grouphug: |
