No he actually likes my pups. When he “went down” as he refers to I was sleeping and he tried calling me but my phone was either downstairs or dead or mistakingly on silent. He was able to walk then opened my door and yelled at me for sleeping and not answering my phone. The next morning I drove him to the hospital. He was in hospital for a week. Meanwhile, I’m coordinating house renovations, texting him every day for his medical updates, responding to all his requests, had a car accident and dealing with rental, ins etc, He was fine with me the whole time until he saw me on the house camera return with 2 coffees for a friend who helps me around the house, rides until I get rental etc. My father has 7 cameras around the house. So when he saw that he texted I had time to get coffee but not visit him in hospital.
