Father Dying from Heart Failure?
My father is dying... His heart's failing. He was admitted to the ICU on friday because his lungs filled up with fluid and his heart muscle is too weak and is fading. Today, They tried to do an operation going into the artery in his leg up to his heart, but he went into cardiac arrest and his lungs failed. They stabilized him and all. But, he is sitting in the hospital dying. They give him two weeks tops. He's only 41. I mean, we had our differences and all. He hasn't been the best father. Not even close. But, he's still my father. And I love him... What the **** can I do? What the hell do I do? I'm only 16. Someone please help..

Happiness is an attitude to life that you must always keep in mind. It is much more than an emotion or feeling. To be truly happy, it is very easy; just follow these steps
Remember that nothing they can say should hurt you. You decide if you want to be hurt.
You are the owner of your life. You should not depend on anyone emotionally.
Remember that life is simple, but we humans make it complicated.
It is not about having the best home, or the latest phone model, it's about being happy with yourself.
Do what you please, but without hurting others.
Start by enjoying the most trivial pleasures, like a delicious snack or a good movie
Let us fight for a better life without feeling self-defeated.

I am really sorry about your dad. There really isn't anything you can do for his health except pray. Another thing that may help is just going to see your dad, hold his hand and tell him that you love him. Even if he isn't conscious when you see him, he will still hear you and knowing you're there will give him some comfort. Tell him that you will be okay and that he can let go. I know that it's hard, but it will also help to give you closure. I was 16 when I lost my father to cancer, so I can relate to how you're feeling. The last thing I said to my dad was that I loved him, and goodbye. The best thing you can do about this is to lean on your family. That's how I got through it. And if you are religious, lean on the Lord, and he will carry you through it too.

When i was 16 i lost my father, (very very similar to what your father is going through) and it was hard for me too. I wish i had the magic answer you are wanting, but i don't. All i can say is that you need to forgive him for anything, hold his hand and trace his face in your memory. At this point in time if he could, he would tell you to stop worrying about the times when you didn't get along. Tell him you love him and make peace. If you are a person who prays, do that too. I will be praying for you and him, and your family.

i donno 4m where u r haggard. But if the situation happens in india,then we jst pray to god. We indians,get into the shadow of god,when such things arrive. I am a bangali from kolkata. And there is author in bengali, sirshendu mukherjee. He says,life is like a football game. U should hve to put the ball in goal,at any time u have to goal. And the goalposts are uor faith. It may be friendship,may be you, may be uor self-confidence,may be n e thing. So go in the goal. May be u loss the game. But it is a game. And u r a sportsman. Try to take all that easy. God is great. What he was doing, that was 4 good,and what he doing is also 4 good,and what he will do will also 4 good(a quote 4m 'SHRIMAT VAGABATA GITA'. I know,that u kan go out of this situation. Stay good my friend. It is life. It happens.
