I just got a call from my parents.
My last remaining grandparent is in the hospital. She had a stroke.
I kinda figure that, if she hasn't by now, she isn't going to die...
But what the rumour mill has is that her left side is gone.
No word on speech or other language capabilities.
She'll not ever get to return to her apartment, that's pretty much a given.
I don't know what I want you to pray for. She's had a good life, her husband is gone, she's gotten to love and play with great-grandbabies. I guess, for the best recovery possible if she is to stay with us. She's a tough old bird, but the social aspect means so much to her.
*quirk* She uses Facebook more than I do. She was better on IMs than my mother.
Is it weird that my first thought was "You're a week late?" It was 2008 where all the trailblazers left...
Anyways, yes.
I'm very sick, again. Apparently, home means safe, and safe means I have time to be sick. *sigh* So I'm going to go lie down. Hopefully, I'd do lists tonight.
*All the news that is news as of midnight*
00:04] Donna: news is the stroke is irreverable
[00:04] Donna: the partial paraliseces may be permanent
[00:04] Donna: her left side is affected
[00:05] Donna: her eye face mouth arm and leg
[00:05] Sword-Dancing Kunoichi: *nod* Do they know if she can talk/understand yet? Is she awake?
[00:05] Donna: yes she even understands what is going on
[00:06] Donna: she talks like she is slurring her words as her tongue is affected as well
So what I was most worried about isn't. She can still communicate, and is still cognisant.
Grammy can get through anything as long as nobody's taking away her friends.
Thank you everyone for your thoughts/prayers. It means a lot to me, and my family. |
