So this past weekend my grandma had two strokes. She’s already got a myriad of other health problems, and we were worried that this might be the end.

Well, Grandma seems to be holding her own. My Mom and sisters saw her again yesterday and she was awake and mostly coherent, talking to them. They said she was repeating herself a lot, but wasn’t too bad, and the hospital was sending her back to her nursing home. She’s still haemorrhaging in her brain, which can really only go two ways. It may be fatal, but it may still heal itself. So again, hard to know where we stand, but going by what my family tells me, she’s hanging in there.
I swear the woman has more lives than a cat. I mean, I want her to live because she seems to want to (and because I’d miss her, of course), but I can’t help but worry that she’s really suffering.
