My dad is going to hospital this morning....

It is so cold this morning. 13 degrees. Which is apparently 55°F. I'm still under my blankets but I have to get up soon. Very windy and cloudy here. I've arranged a taxi for my dad to take him to the hospital. I will be going with him. Once he is settled in, I will come back home for awhile then go back once the surgery is done.
I am nervous for him as we don't know what will be done exactly. He may wake up to the tip of one toe missing or perhaps 2 toes missing. He is accepting in this as when this all first started, he almost lost all of his foot. But as life has shown us, you never know what will happen. Things were going well for his foot but now we are taking steps backwards. Hoping this will be the very last surgery he will need so he can have his foot heal completely over time.
I will be on here for a little bit then get up. For now I stay under the blankets

@Starkinds He is in the hospital right now. I am back home. I am guessing he may be having surgery right now. I will be calling the hospital a bit later to check his whereabouts.

@MommyOfEli2013 Thank you so very much. I rang the hospital about an hour ago to see where my dad's whereabouts were but he was still waiting to have surgery. So I will ring back again maybe in another hour's time or so.

@VivaLaDani13 Oh I understand, Dani! Don't worry, things will be moving in positive direction. Please pass on the cheers from your side to him. I'm sure you're already doing that. Yes, he should be sedated for a while as the procedure would be having some post effects with pain.
Let's this be those final harsh things that he would have to deal with it. There will definitely be a good and strong life for him aftermath. This episode is bad I know. Trust me, he will be super fine in couple of weeks.
