Ult is in the hospital!

Haven't been around the forum too much lately, but glad you're doing better.

I'll be praying for you.

Thank you. It was actually from working out. I did a set of 400 lbs on my legs, which is a warmup set for me. I stood up and felt like I had run a marathon. Weird! I decided to do the next set, which is stupid, but I did 600 lbs., stood up and could not catch my breath. I knew something was wrong so I left the gym and we called the doctor immediately. Thankfully they got me in quickly. The doctors say that my cardio training saved my life because my lungs were strong enough to take the attack on them when four of six lobes had blocks. If I had been a smoker, I would not have survived. I'm thankful to be alive.

Rock on brother! Much blessings! Good to see you back as well.

Yes Scott to echo the others it is great news that you are recovering. Scary scary stuff. Last Monday I lost a very good friend who passed from respiratory failure at 50, crushed/crushing me. So agin great to hear you are recouping well and the prognosis is good.

My dad has been in the hospital for weeks now.

He first was sent there when he started suffering from vertigo. His problems are now worsening, as he has developed problems with swallowing food and is starting to get vision problems as well (extremely light sensitive). My mother hasn't been at her house much lately, because she is constantly at the hospital with my dad. She's starting to get really worried.

Sorry to hear RF. Maybe start a separate thread and keep us informed.

I hope your dad gets better soon RF!!

Sorry to hear. Hope all turns out well.

Sorry to hear that RF, hope he gets better.

Oh, man. I will put him on my nightly prayer list, RF. Keep us posted brother.

Best wishes for your father RF.

Thanks for the support, everyone.

Best Wishes , Scott !!!
