Hero Hospitalised

Have you ever looked into the eyes of a man, 73yrs old, as he was being pushed along the corridors to the operating theatre? I did, a few days back... and the feeling I get is one of fear, uncertainty and confusion. His eyes tells me he felt the same as I did, but with more... "Will I still be able to wake up after the op? Will I still be able to see my children after the op? Will I be able to survive this?"

This man, is my father.....

If you have never experienced this before, let me tell you that this is NOT some kind of experience which you would ever want to gain. NEVER! As such, I sincerely hope that you, my friend, will never ever get to go through what I've been through this week.
