[member=42855]waterbuffalofarmer[/member]  that is very worrying for you all and as often as people tell you not to worry in reality that is very difficult especially when you have a farm. However, you must trust in the doctors and work with them. Sometimes it is easy to think they are being too slow because we want results now. Start planning for next year now. Unfortunately, the hospital can't be worried about your animals or indeed any of the problems anyone can face when they know they have surgery ahead.  :hug:

I said something similar when OH needed op which was to be months away.   Op was done following week.  Must be a wife thing!!

WBF  hope your dad is ok.   Having a plan of what needs to be done when and by whom for the animals both for the short term while your dad is in hospital and then when he is back home is a good idea and will let you prioritise.  Shearing and hay making is a wee while away but thinking now about getting help in then will one less thing on the to do list.  What about a student in for over the summer?
One important thing though is to make sure you look after yourself and your mum.  The doctors are looking after your dad

Maybe..... we will see how it starts to pan out first :)
the most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, loving concern.
