    Thoughts for my Grandpa?

    Hi all,

    Can I have some pt prayers, vibes, and thoughts for my grandpa? My Grandpa's not one to complain about pain, and we just found out about his pains when he went into the hospital last night. I guess for the past month he has been in so much back pain that he has been unable to walk. Well last night the hospital found out it was due to infected colon. Once he gets over the infected colon, he is going to go in for back surgery. Today he is having a surgery done at 3. What’s even scary is nobody in the family knows what kind of surgery. My step-Grandmother has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s 3 year ago, and one of the things she does is tell us nothing about what's going on.

    My grandpa has been through so much. He has severe diabetes and last year he slipped on ice and had hip surgery, but he had complications because he has something in his heart, I can't exactly remember what it is.

    What breaks my heart even more is I’m not able to see him today because I have to teach classes. Prayers would help so much!
    Thanks so much Ashley for the siggy!

    Well I found out my Grandpa was having back surgery. He has been in surgery for over 2 hours. More prayers would be great.

    Grampa's are very special. Prayers on the way.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Prayers for your Granpa...I know he will feel better being out of so much pain, with the infection gone...and he will have good pain care after the surgery.

    {{{{hugs}}}} and prayers that he heals quickly.
