I'm in the City. My father is in ICU with septic shock from pneumonia. The emergency room doctor recommended that if we wanted to be sure to "say whatever we wanted to say to him" we should come on up last night. He seemed to be stabilizing, maybe, when we left the hospital last night, but they're giving him two units this morning.

My brother is relentlessly optimistic. I'm dubious.

I want him to be right.

I'm torn between probability and making you feel better. The probability that he'll come out of this isn't good. Then again, the doctors told me three times I was going to die in a few days and you'll notice they were wrong. I hope things turn out well for him.
