The same weekend of the my Papa's funeral, my Granddad was sick at home. My mom finally convinced him to go to the doctor with her. They did some blood tests to see if he had an infection and gave him some medicine and sent him home. While we were at the funeral the doctor's office called to tell him he was very anemic and he needed to go to the emergency room immediately for a blood transfusion. As soon as we got back from the funeral he called my mom to tell her and my parents took him to the ER.
They ended up sending him to Lubbock so they could do a bone marrow biopsy. The results were that he has acute leukemia. Because he is 84 years old chemotherapy is not an option. He has pneumonia so he has been in the hospital in Lubbock until they can take care of the pneumonia. Then he can go back to Snyder, Texas.
There is a room next door to my Grandma in the assisted living where she lives. He will be in hospice there. I'm so glad they will be together.
Please pray for him and for my Grandma. I just can't believe this is all happening. Clint and I are trying to figure out a time when we can go see him. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers.
