No clever titles tonight - it's 11.37 and I'm shattered. Den's darling Dad - Ian - was taken to Thames hospital this morning so we drove straight down to be with his mum. As we were finishing lunch the hospital phoned to say he had had a massive heart attack and was being transferred to Waikato ICU. We drove straight over - making calls on the way - and settled into ICU to wait, as Ian had been sent to the cardiac wing first. When he arrived - it was not good. I thought poor Den was going to faint and Merle (Den's mum) went as white as a sheet.
Elijah has camp tomorrow and there was nothing more I could do, so I left Den there with Merle and brought Meg and Lij home. The Dr saw them not long after - it was a massive heart attack and had he not already been in the hospital he would not have survived. Now it's a case of waiting til tomorrow to see how he is then.
