Granddad is Home from the Hospital


The prognosis isn't good. His will is strong and his spirit even stronger. I don't know how he will deal with this.
He has had 100% clogging of his curated artery for over 20 years and they told him years ago that he wouldn't last long.
He is going to have to take a lot more meds to keep the fluid from building up, and he's gotta keep lots of water in him to keep his kidneys working.
His biggest fear was kidney failure, and now the docs are saying that is what is eventually will happen.
He's always said that he was gonna die with his boots on, and I have always believed him.
My Aunt doesn't live here and doesnt' see him like I do.
If he can he's gonna get up and do what he wants, or he will just roll over and die.
I won't know until I see him tomorrow.
Hopefully the kids will be able to come as well, if not we will still bring the puppy.
He loves Beagles, and Gunner is so sweet he will cuddle right up with him.
To all of you Readers who are Believers; Please send up a few for my Granddad. He's been through soooo much, and while I might not be ready for him to go, I certainly don't want him to be ready yet either, I want him to put his boots back on for a long time.
