My granddaddy

He's back in the hospital and he's not doing too well. My mom just called me and the cardiologist says he is in congestive heart failure. Right now under 30% of his heart is working. It's not the worst diagnosis and they think he can go home in a few days if he responds to the meds but I'm still very upset/worried. Up until now he's been living by himself and I don't think that's going to be an option anymore which I know he will hate. If you have a chance any t&p would be appreciated. I'm trying hard to focus on work right now but it's pretty difficult at the moment.

Re: My granddaddy

  • big thoughts and prayers going his way.  The meds are very good at controlling the congestive heart failure.  As long as he weighs himself every single morning and alerts his doctor at any sudden weight change or change in vision, he will be okay.  That's what happened to me anyway.
