Dad isn’t doing well. He sounds terrible. Can’t keep anything down. Their 50th wedding anniversary is next weekend.
I have him 3 options:
1) I drive an hour to their place now and take him in
2) I call 911 and he pays for an ambulance ride
3) anniversary party is cancelled

He is really looking forward to their 50th wedding anniversary party so hopefully that motivates him to go in. I told mom to take him in.

Mom is taking dad to ER. Told Mom I would call her back in an hour to check in. I have 6 siblings & we have all been communicating to convince them to go to ER.

Dad is 72 & has DM2, Hx of 2 strokes & is stubborn as hell.

Their 50th wedding anniversary is next weekend and we’re having a party which dad is really looking forward to. We want him to be able to celebrate it. If you have extra prayers or positive vibes/thoughts we could use them.

They’re at ER. They drew blood for tests. Has IV in for fluids. Hasn’t seen Dr yet. Mom said she’ll call later when they know something. Told her to call regardless of the time otherwise I’ll check in tomorrow morning.
Dad doesn’t like being there but he knows it’s where he needs to be right now.
