my birthday weekend was great
but my dad was taken to a & e with severe chest pains this morning. don't think it can possibly be his heart, as his bupa check-up last month said that he had the heart of a 30 year old, which isn't bad for someone who is 68. but they are looking for blood clots or stuff on his lungs.

argh. i am a sad and distracted swipe this morning...

If he's been checked over recently
then it is unlikely to be his heart, and anything else desperately serious they would probably have picked up then, too.
Best of luck - I am sure he will be fine though.

thank you too!
it sounds like pleurisy or something to me, as he had a chest infection about a month ago that he just hasn't shifted. i just hope it's nothing more serious. i reeeeally don't want to be an orphan!!!!!!

Ah, well that sounds much more likely, in that case
try not to worry too much, eh? He's in the best place for him :)
