In a weird sticky spot/wwyd

[shirlene29]

so..
my daughter went with her dad to visit peeps in Fl..
I get a phone call yesterday he's sick and has been admitted to the hospital..he has pneumonia and a cpl of other little minor infections..keeping him for observation because some blood work looks off

today I get a phone call hes been upgraded to icu, no platelets and an O2 SAT OF 70% on room air and 90% on non re-breather <<to non medical peeps this isn't good
and he's extremely disoriented even at 90% and can't even figure out how to use his phone

and do I want our daughter to go in and see him before they put her on a plane home

I said yes because shes almost 14 and the people that are alarmed by all of this aren't alarmists ..so now Im pretty alarmed (make sense?)



but Im an asshole if I have her come home and he dies (this is a distinct possibility)...and I'm an asshole if I request that she stay there for a little bit longer to see if he makes it around the corner, and allow her more time with her father.

what would you do?

 

[shirlene29]

oh...and calling all of his family got left to me too

What would I do? That's easy...Let her be with her father, especially if there is the possibility that he could die. Just my .02

Why would you be an asshole if you let her stay?

Let her stay.

Is this your husband? Or an ex? Do you love him?

No brainer!

 

[shirlene29]

theyre really pushing to put her on a plane home...my instinct is to let her stay

I am of course going to ask her because I haven't yet.
So far everyone is trying to keep the gravity of it from her and I think that's a mistake.


I've known these people more than twenty years now and if theyre shook up...its bad bad news...because they had a shocking death in their family theyre looking to protect her from it

I agree with everyone else I would.defiantly let her stay with her father during this time. I wish the best for you guys though and I'm sorry..

my ex husband...I care a good deal about the guy..but love him in a romantic sense, no. Not at all.

Im just the person everyone still thinks of as closest to him, which honestly really isn't true anymore. The friends he is with now are.
