My Sweet Grandpa...

[Kimmi7472]

For as long as i can remember my sister and i would spend all our summer vacations at grandma and grandpa's house. most kids couldnt wait for summer to roll around because they would go to water parks, trips or camps. we just looked forward to going to see them and our cousins. and i couldnt imagine them being in a hospital and not recognizing any of our faces.

I found out yesterday night that my grandpa had a horrible fall and because of it he cant recognize my cousin Edith, who has lived with them for the past 22 years. and even worse he doesnt recognize my uncle, his own son. the only thing my mom was able to tell was that he fell off from the back of a truck and hit his head. my uncle said that grandpa remembers some things and recognizes "some people".

My grandpa's a religious man. we would always go to churchc with him during the summer. i remember him preaching up there with so much passion that i know the Lord is not going to let any thing happen to him. my grandpa is a tough cookie and i know he will be ok. it just killes me that i live so far away from my family and in instances like these i cant be with them as much as i want.

Tomorrow is another day and thats another recovery day for him.

It's so hard seeing someone you've known all your life not remember you because of an accident or something.  :(  My grandmother didn't remember anyone right before she passed, because of cancer in her brain.

But I will definitely say a prayer for a swift and full recovery for your grandfather!
