Hello,
I know I dont post much, but I really do need some help right now.
Recently my grandmother went to go have surgery to get her bladder lifted and some other organs lifted because apparently they were starting to fall (I guess this happens with old age.) She had had this surgery before and she told everyone not to worry.
Well the surgery went well but at the time she was supposed to come around she was still very grogy. My grandfather (who had taken her to the hospital and waited while the surgery was done) was told to just leave and go home. She would be fine and to just go home and get some sleep. Well apparently everything was not ok. She had internal bleeding they did not know about and they had to do and emergency operation on her. Then they took her over to the ICU. She stayed the night there and they thought she would most likely recover.
Well they didnt find the internal bleeding. They dont know where its coming from and her blood is not clotting. Last I heard the doctors put a dye in her blood so they could find out where it was coming from but no news about it yet. They decided to leave her open so they could observe her organs functions. I was told they are going to just leave her stomach open for about 10 days.
The doctor told the family if people are going to fly out then now is the time. Because it doesnt look too good and she is most likely going to die.
I know my grandfather is crushed. And it pains me to think of him like that.
My grandfather is the most 'Christ like' person I have ever met. I have never in my whole existance ever even heard him raise his voice. He is the most kind and patient person I have ever met and I really do try to model my behaviors after him.
My grandmother on the other hand is a very strong woman. She could do anything. I know she could come out of this, but I am not quite sure if she wants to. I believe its up to her.
My mum has flown out to see my grandmother, and no one know what will happen.
I was just hoping that maybe you could light a candle for my mum, grandfather, grandmother, and the other members of my family. They are so important in my life and I hate to see the whole family in pain such as this. I just hope we can get through this.
Thanks so much,
Vickiy
