My dad fell down last wednesday or thursday (he did not remember) and when he would not answer the phone on thursday or Friday my brother who was out of town called the police. Aparently dad fell down and broke his hip, or broke his hip then fell down. He was down for 1-3 days before the police found him.
Came out of surgery on Sunday and seemed to be doing OK.
I managed to talk to him for about 1 minute before he went in as they were rolling him into surgery right when I called. Wished him good luck but forgot to tell him I loved him and felt really bad about that for hours.
I told him when he came out a few hours later. It was a second chance so to speak and I took it.

Tuesday I got a call at 1:30AM and calls at those hours are seldom any good. Dad had stopped breathing and was rushed to intensive care. He did not make it.

Have two sisters, one in Anchorage and one in California, my brother lives in Danville IL, where my dad lived and is taking care of arrangements. Whenever my sisters can make it in, I will be gone for a couple days but probably not until later this week.

My brother is making arrangements now. My sister Marie will be flying in from Anchorage and my other sister from California. I will be gon for a couple days leaving sometime tomorrow. Picking up my sister at Ohare from Anchorage tonight.
