Life<\/strong> With my dad in recent years, who has been seriously ill, it hasn't been very easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

This isn't the first time I've shared my dad's health problem with everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides, with so many times that we have been hospitalized, it is now known that his condition is difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Life with a mentally ill person is very difficult & painful.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let's start from the beginning:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My dad was a Cardiologist, Associate University Professor at the Hippocrates Hospital of Athens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was & is world-famous for his thousands of research studies, his fatigue test & his awards were countless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides, it was no coincidence that he was the first Greek doctor to be awarded by New England.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My dad was one of those doctors who wanted his patients to do well & constantly conducted research in his specialty to find new ways & solutions to heart issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It had some weaknesses:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. His work & research was above all & everyone<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. He was a fanatic APOEL fan - APOEL is the best Cypriot team -<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. He adored his daughter -that is, me-<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. He loved sweets very much.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. He loved his students.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    His weakness for sweets cost him a lot, as 8 years ago we discovered from an ischemic stroke that he suffered that he was diabetic. I remember very well, that day was Tuesday, he had a class with students, and all he cared about was getting up and going to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If a doctor took care of others and never himself.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

    For a few years we were fine, he had retired, he was taking care of himself as best he could & I finally had the time to make him happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3 years ago he got a urinary tract infection, took antibiotics & from then on our Golgotha began.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We had visited all the hospitals, because we wanted to settle on one, one that would give us a reasonable opinion & not simply turn him into a guinea pig by giving him medication without the necessary tests having been done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    From the many medications he also developed Parkinson's and bedsores because in a hospital he had become a plant from the cocktail of drugs he had been given.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Eventually, we settled in a hospital, because they not only respected him as a colleague, but they respected him as a person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    They respected us, supported us & continue to support us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The 2 neurologists we have stopped his medications because they felt that in my dad's case, since he has many illnesses, they were not doing him any good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Life with my dad is difficult & very expensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In a future article, I will analyze the whole adventure & what you need to do to help both the patient and you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
