Thought I was done with fútbol. My dad got hurt real bad in a fall and he is in ICU. I understand now why players quit the sport when they endure a tragedy to a loved one. My dad is who I talk and watch games with. The idea of watching without him or not having someone to talk to about ball completely turned me off the sport. Today his NT plays (he is not Ecuadorian born/heritage like me, we don't support the same NTs). I am strangely excited about going to the hospital after work and putting the game on so he can listen and I can watch next to him.

By Dr3up Go To PostDamn dude. Hope all goes well.Thank you all for the kind words. Unfortunately I must update that my dad won't make it. His body is no longer responding to the meds keeping him alive. Our only choices are to keep giving meds and wait for him to die, or pull the plug and wait for him to die. I am not just losing a best dad, I'm losing a best friend too.

I recommend everyone cherish the time you have with your loved ones. Time spent with those we love is never time wasted.

I am not just losing a best dad, I'm losing a best friend too.Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear this. To some extent I am sure you're glad he won't be suffering any longer if the meds weren't working.. but I just can't imagine the feeling of going through this. I'm terrified of having to make a decision like this in the future (my parents are in their early 70s now.. hopefully years left but you just never know). Heartfelt condolences to you and your family, my friend.
