Just got word that Ben's father was taken to the hospital from work this morning. He had very high blood pressure 200 over (I'm not sure the diastolic number), but 200 systolic is extremly high. They are currently running a cat scan to look for a blood clot and also running tests for a stroke or heart attack.
He was just diagnosed with Emphsema and quit smoking. He does drink heavily. He also has had a valve replacement years ago. It's killing me...I'm waiting for Ben's foreman to get my message so Ben can call me back.
I debated on whether or not to call him at work and tell him. But I'd rather he knows now and be able to see his dad just incase something terrible does happen.
Please, send his dad (Brian) whatever you've got. He is a good man and would give you the shirt off of his back. He is recently engaged and just finished his house. I would kindly appreciate good vibes, crossed paws & fingers and prayers if you've got them.
I will keep you updated as well.
Thank you,
Kristi
