Normally, I blog about my business, but I wanted to talk about my 86 year old grandma. She was hurt on Friday when her car jumped out of gear and the car door struck her causing a broken hip and wrist. This past weekend has been a roller coaster ride with her health. Things started to going down hill when she was in surgery on Saturday and her vitals dropped and they pulled her out of surgery. They gave her 24 hours to live. They said her heart was weak and she did have a cardiac arrest, but CPR brought her back. Unfortunately, they broke a rib during that process. Miraculously, after that she was better. She got to see and talk to family and it was great. She had to have the surgery, so on Monday they tried again and she made it with flying colors. Everyone including the doctors were thrilled. Tuesday she got up with walker and did great during her therapy session. During the night, she became very tired and as of today they are telling us she has a swollen heart and a blood clot in her arm. I am not ready for her to leave us this way. She is such a strong lady and if anyone can beat it she can. I have seen her prove them wrong all weekend. We all got a second chance with her and as selfish as this may be, I am not ready to let that go. Not after everything she went through this weekend and then to leave us now. I am putting it out to the universe that she will prove them wrong and she will be moved to the fifth floor to resume her therapy, so she can go home.
