Grandpa turned for the worst.(up-dated)

Today I have kind of had to step back out of the frey. The current procedures to re-inflate his lung has not worked. My mom, aunt, dad and uncles have stepped in. They will be transferring Grandpa to a different facility with a better cardio /respiratory specialist IF he can make the trip. It's out of my hands and even grandma's been shut out to a degree. For the time being I am at home and just making us humongus bacon cheese burgers on Kaiser rolls for dinner. I just want time in my own house, with my stuff and my handsome man ....



again your kind thoughts and prayers are deeply appreciated. I might get some time this evening to do some posting and chatting.

***********************************
9:30 here.. Talked with mom and she told me in normal people terms what is going on. Tomorrow morning another surgery. There is an air pocket "bubble" preventing his lung from fully re-inflating. they are going to add a tube to extract the bubble and see if the lung will then inflate the rest of it's way in it's own. IDK if I will be around much at all tomorrow and looks like I will need to be with Grandma over the weekend or drag her out here so she can see my house. And eat with us.

Hang in there, Bret. It is now time to pray for Grandpa, and to be with your loved ones at home.

Hey Bret, haven't posted comments of late as I figured you wouldn't have time to read them anyway. Doesn't mean I haven't thought of you or care. I'll view it as a positive sign that they are moving him to a different facility. Maybe they will have the answers there.
