Fortunately, I called them at home after he was home. Thus, I learned he hadn't been spending the last few days golfing. Likewise for the gallbladder situation. Fortunately, my brother just happened to be home when my father needed an emergency appendectomy. Otherwise, I might never have known...

Sending best wishes to you all.
