87-Year-Old Man Returns Home from Hospital, Sees His Stuff Had Been Taken Out of the House

When Chris Harvey was hospitalized, his daughter sent her son, Peter, to check on him and make sure his house was ready for

him to return. But Peter and his wife had another idea.

Chris returned to see his home dilapidated, then heard something shocking from his grandson.

“Dad, don’t worry. I’m going to work something out. But I can’t visit you at all because I don’t have any more PTO at work,”

Angelina told her father, 87-year-old Chris Harvey when he called her from the hospital.

He had called 911 after a heart episode, thinking it might be more serious. But the doctors said they had to run more tests, and

there were several things they needed to check before he could return home.

He called his daughter, who lived in Miami, asking if she could come home to Austin, Texas, and help him out.

But she couldn’t. “Ok, darling. I think the doctors are just worried about my health at my age,

and they’ll tell me more soon enough,” he mumbled, holding his cellphone to his ear while in his hospital bed.

“Hannah, calm down. It’s fine. It just messes with our plans for a bit,” he placated. Plans?

Eventually, they hung up, and the doctors asked Chris to remain in the hospital

for a few days while they checked everything and decided what he needed for treatment.
