Grandma is doing better today. Dad says she is getting into her wheelchair on her own. She is still a little bit out of it, but it's probably the meds.

They still haven't run the tests. They think the reason she had to go on the breathing machine (not exactly life-support) is that she wasn't swallowing right and got too much fluid in her lungs.

I haven't spoken with my dad yet, and the tests aren't done, but right now I feel optimistic. that she'll be back nearly to normal. She will probably have to go into rehab. If she is rehabbing, she won't have to go to a nursing home, and can stay at her apartment (it is a complex for seniors).

Thanks to everyone for your thoughts. Your words are meaningful. I appreciate your caring.

Today i remember of my grandfather all the time,
he was wonderful to me, teach me too much good things when i was a child and when he had sick, with 76 years old, i taken care from him, it endured 2 or 3 years, and i liked the things that i did for him, it was the most important things that i did in all my life, i gave nourishment in his mouth, i dressed his clothes, washed his body and did lots of solidarity things for the oldest man at my family...and here i am with my good faith to give to you and your grandmother my solidarity and my best wishes and my prayers!
A big hug freekie!
