Nov. 10th, 2008 02:03 pmJust got off the phone with my mother.
Granpa Z. went to the hospital on Saturday. He was diagnosed with bleeding in his intestines, from non-cancerous polyps, which is something he's had trouble with before. They did some surgery, stopped the bleeding, and he went home.
He went back on Sunday, similar symptoms. They did surgery again - and he had a heart attack during surgery.
Right now he's in the hospital, recovering. He's in poor condition. Dad's going up there tomorrow.
::bites lip:: I was going to call and see how they were doing this weekend, and I put it off...
Mom said part of the problem is that he's been feeling really negative and down lately, as if he thinks his time's up. On the other hand, he'd also been asking Mom when she thought we might come visit, so he can meet his little namesake Jack. I told her to tell him, if/when he's able to talk, that I want him to hang in there so he can see his "Little Bernie". Gramma of course is extremely upset.
I'm praying for them. Prayers from the flist are very welcome.
