My mom and dad fly to Vegas every year for the first two rounds, they have been for the past 5 years. My dad got fed up with all the odd long locals for the cats. We have went to a lot of tourney games after the first 2 and he's a huge Ky fan and has season tickets. Last night they think he had a stroke and he's still in the ER in Vegas. My mom is going on no sleep, it was their first day of their week long vacation. I'm going on no sleep. Finally got to talk to him between test and all he said is they better be done with this crap before the cats tip, but then my mom had to take the phone as he was too weak and in pain. So stuck here, their stuck there and just hoping he's ok. Kind of a helpless feeling when someone you love is on the other side of the country. Appreciate any prayers and here's hoping for a cats win tonight.

Praying for His hand to be on your Dad and for his medical staff to be extremely vigilant in his care.

Have they administered antiplatelet or anticoagulant medication?

Prayers in the name of Jesus that He will touch your Dad.
Thinking and prayers for you too being so far away, wanting to be there but can't. Tough.

He's in and out, exhausted just flown in to Vegas from KY yesterday and then went down and out. He's worried about missing the game, but their telling him to rest while they run more test and not to worry about it. I guess it's a good sign he's still worried about the game, but that's him. Watching tonight with a heavy heart and hoping the cats can pull one out for him.

Good man. Didn’t mean to suggest you wouldn’t be there. Basketball is just a game in comparison to the real game of life.
