    sweety - your dad would probably tell you to take care of your future! I know mine would have.
    He doesnt know its his birthday I would imagine - and whether you visit him on the 'day' is neither here nor there. as long as you visit when you CAN!
    Yes, send a card for someone to read to him - or a recorded message.
    Do your best in the exam and interview and know he would be proud of you!

    What about sending a card to your sister with your personal message in it to your father. Ask her to bring it to the hospital and read to your father on his birthday.

    send your mum a card or a letter explaining you wish you could be there and that you love her and the support she is giving dad; and give her a ring to let her know how your exam went.
