We love you guys - here is a touch of what is going on. 

My daddy has been in the hospital off and on since 7/6-he had a prostate biopsy. He has been bleeding ever since -with multiple failed attempts at fixing it. They have placed clips twice- and then also consulted surgery who placed three sutures as well -the artery is what continues to bleed. They sent him home twice and he had bled at home and had to call ambulance -both times. He's had 20 units of blood as of this am -since 7/7 and they have talked about transferring him to Knoxville to a specialist that can do the need procedure.  They state no one is capable in their region. He does have prostate cancer and they suspect some sort of leukemia or myelodysplastic  disorder, but they did a bone marrow biopsy over three weeks ago - with no results. He also sat in the ER at Holston Valley Medical Center after being brought in by ambulance with an active bleed. They put him in wheelchair and rolled him to the waiting room. With an active bleed. Sitting in a waiting room. Bleeding. My mom is a mess and won't leave his side - hasn't slept or hardly eaten since this started......she told me yesterday she is afraid they are just going to let him lay there in ICU and bleed to death ( they are saying Knoxville has no beds).  It has been a nightmare. Both Jeff and I appreciate your patience while we navigate this time.
