Title: Grandpa is doing much better!
Post by: doxielady5569128 on March 27, 2006, 03:30:19 PM
My grandpa is feeling lots better now.  He is still in the hospital and has to have the ventilator in for a few more days to let his lungs get stronger. Since he has a ventilator in, he also has to have a feeding tube, they had quite a rough time getting one in.  The first one they tried scraped his lung and they had to wait for two days before trying again. 

The doctor says he is getting much stronger and should be healthy and home for Easter when all the family is getting together.  He still needs rays to help him get better, but at least he is out of the ICU now.  For anyone who doesn't know..He has pneumonia which he developed after a severe choking accident in his home about a month ago.  Thanks to everyone who has been sending rays and thinking of him!
