Would you care?

My dad's been in the hospital nearly two weeks. He had a lung infection and then they found swollen lymph nodes in his body, so took a biopsy. We are waiting to see if it's cancer, (non Hodgkin's lymphoma)which unfortunately they said it does look probable..😟

I bought him a small gift on the second day he was in there. They were not expensive, two little heart and bear figures...he protested to any gift in an abrasive way at first. I told him not to worry they did not break the bank. He knows I'm unemployed. But my mom said today he was offering to give one of them to a nurse. I don't know, it made me feel low. But I do overthink sometimes. Would you care Really, or just brush it off?

I think your dad wants to show appreciation to the nurse and truly adores the gifts you gave to him… Nurses are under valued especially in times like these and he is wanting to show gratitude to that person who may have been extremely nice and caring during his stay… absolutely nothing for you to be upset or even miffed over 😁 …hope all goes well
