Just got a call from my dad with more update. I'll update you with the update I got before that 1st though. They got to the hospital and found out he had the "better" kind of stroke, a clot. Because of when he fell, and scrapped his head, they didn't want to give him a "clot buster", so they gave him some blood thinner. He gained back his mobility, and his speech wasn't as slurred. They kept him overnight. They were trying to figure out what caused the clot. Next day they were able to remove the clot, and he was doing better. His left side could move, but felt weakened. They figured he'd have to be doing physical theropy.
Today, they figured out what caused the clot. His heart was slowing down, taking longer between each beat. They had surgery and put in a pace maker. He is in intensive care right now, after the surgery, and will be moved. That's the current situation. I'll be going to Tulsa this weekend, so I'll be able to see him. No longer going to that Mazda Car event, but that was just to hang with friends anyways, now I get to save gas money? Heh.
He stood you up =/
