In the Hospital

Dad had an irregular heartbeat last night that resulted in a major dizzy spell for him including a hot flash. We took him to the VA Hospital in Fort Wayne and they decided to keep him overnight for observation. This morning the Dr. was in and decided to keep him another day because of Dad's heart history.
Dad called Uncle Howard to let him know and found out that Uncle Howard was in the hospital with internal bleeding. He was vomiting blood and they did a scope and couldn't see anything because of so much blood. They are flushing out his system and going to do another scope at 5 pm.
Uncle Howard is in the Hendersonville Hospital.
