Mom called.
Granpa is alert and talking, although the pain medication has him a bit foggy and forgetful. He's alert enough to notice it, and be grumpy about it.
They're not sure when/if he will be going home. Gramma thinks he may need to go to a nursing care facility temporarily, or if not, get some kind of in-home nurse visits. She's not going to be able to stop him from doing yardwork otherwise. She's also worried about how she's going to lift him if he falls or passes out from overdoing.
My youngest brother and dad are up there, helping Gramma out. Brian's got about a week of leave. Mom may be heading back up there later this week.
I'm so glad he's feeling a bit better.
