My sister called our mom today when I was visiting with Mom. She had this story to tell about how our dad has been acting today. OMG. First of all, he is still in bad shape physically. Add to that that he has covid and he's 75. Apparently, his blood pressure was high and his oxygen saturation was in the 70's! The medics working at the nursing home he's in called an ambulance because his lips were blue, and he was very pale.

Well, what does my father do? He calls everybody liars, including my sister and insists that paramedics always want you to come to the hospital. Well, this time he NEEDED to go! The paramedics heard fluid in his lungs but no wheezing. (He has asthma like I do.) He's supposed to wear his oxygen a vast majority of the day, but he wasn't wearing it when the medics came and saw him. They changed his oxygen orders to double what it was (2L to 4L).

He then made some really mean racial slur about one of the girls trying to help him! THEN, my sister called our dad and we had him on mute and speaker phone on my mom's and my end. And he's STILL pooping on things he shouldn't! I realize that he probably feels like he's lost control of his life, but he can't function any other way. My sister said she told him "Fine do it yourself. Find your own place to live. I'm done!"! And then she relayed to me and our mom that he still thinks you have to plug a laptop into something to get on the internet. Or a satellite. My sister was like, "Dad, its WIFI..." He insists he needs a new computer.

All in all, he's acting like a 4-year-old who isn't getting his way!
