update on grandma

Just a quick update on my Grandma. She went through bypass today and it turned out to be quadruple bypass and not triple. The surgeon told us that she did fantastic and her heart looks even better than he had hoped. She's in ICU and is slowly waking up. We waited in the surgical waiting room for the better part of the day. My sister showed up and we were wearing the same shirt in the same color. It was hysterical. Grandma would have thought that was hilarious!

Also, as we all know, when it rains it pours. My mother's grandmother (my grandma's mother in law) has been in a nursing home since right before our wedding last year. Well, she is not doing well at all. She's 93 and has dementia and a blockage in her bowel, meaning she can't keep much food down. It's really only a matter of time. Shouldn't it be a rule that only one family member is allowed to be sick at one time?

I just ask for continued prayer that grandma heals quickly and that my great-grandmother is comforted in her final days. My blogging has really been effected by the sickness of the family members, massive amounts of school work and cookie baking. Hopefully in the next few weeks things will lighten up again!
