Update on Great Grandma

If you didn’t know, this weekend was a bit of a scare, my great grandma fell on Friday and broke her hip. It was so bad that she went code blue. The whole family was called to the hospital 9:30pm Friday night. When we got there she did a 180 and doing so much better. By Saturday her color was back, she was completely aware and surgery was now an option. Today they did an EKG and said she handle he hip surgery so it is scheduled for 2:30 Tuesday. My great grandma is such a strong woman.

Wednesday - 7/30
Grandma had surgery today (postpone from yesterday), everything went well. She’s in ICU, so no visitors…going up tomorrow.

Sunday - 8/3
On Friday Grandma started taking a turn for the worse, all her organs started shutting down that night they put her in hospice.

Friday - 8/15
Grandma has gradually been getting better! In fact, she is now out of hospice and in a rehabilitation center and she has three goals and if she gets those done she can move back to her apartment. They are thinking around three weeks. Holy Moly! What a roller coaster ride of emotions this has been. She is an amazing woman and so strong.
