Update

Popa is feeling better according to Katie who has been staying with him and playing chauffer. He felt well enough to go spend time at the hospital yesterday with Grandmoma. As for Grandmoma, she had a so-so day yesterday. She was only able to get up and walk once. My uncle Danny stayed with her so Mom could come home and get 1099's done. Katie stayed last night and Danny is with her today. Mom will be going back today. So far today has been a better day. She has already been up and walked to the door next to her room. I would guess that would be about 15ft or so. They also x-rayed her chest but I do not have the results of that yet. Yesterday, Mom said she could see baby steps of improvement, then she might have a bad day, but at least she is improving! Will update again when I hear more! Thank you all for the prayers and concern!

Grandparent update

I talked to Mom this morning and she said Grandmoma had a good night last night. She slept well and ate a good breakfast. Yesterday, she was able to walk with a nurse to the sink and back, which is a vast improvement. She is slowly gaining strength. With all that said, last night the doc said if her breathing has not improved today, she would seek a consult with a lung doc. As for Popa Joe, he saw his doc yesterday morning and from what I understand, his platelet count was high. The doc is changing his meds and gave him an inhaler for the bronchitis. I'm sure he will be followed closely. Katie is now staying with him while Mom is with Grandmoma. I had to come home for school, but will be back this weekend if needed. Thank you for all the prayers that I know are being sent up on her behalf! Please continue to keep our family in you prayers.

One down, one to go

Popa is out of the er now. They drew labs, did ekg, and chest x-ray. All came back ok except for a bit of fluid around his right lung. They gave him a dose of Lasix to draw that off. Dr told him to take antibiotics because it also showed a slight case of bronchitis. They gave him blood pressure med IV and it brought his pressure down to a point that the dr was comfortable with him going home. He is suppose to call his regular dr tomorrow. More updates later.
