Grandma Shultz

I talked to Mom today and Grandma is doing so much better. She is still critical but the breathing tube is out and so is the feeding tube! She is able to eat, she is off puree food and today she had soft food for the first time. She is smiling and was even approved to move out of ICU – now there aren’t any beds available in the hospital so she will stay in ICU until something opens up but she is doing well. It’s been 4 weeks now since she went in this round. Last Thursday they told us that the surgery to repair the hole in her chest had been cancelled and there was nothing they could do. But thanks to the Good Lord, she has gotten better. They still aren’t talking about doing the surgery right away but the less tubes in her and the more she can do on her own is fantastic!!! So excited to go see her. We leave Saturday morning and will be there Saturday night. We are staying at Grandma’s house. I love her house, I have so many wonderful memories there. That’s the one place I remember growing up that was safe, and warm, and well it was Grandma – and just being around her in the same room makes you feel good inside. She is a wonderful woman and I can’t wait to see her. Yay, Yay, Yay, oh yeah, she’s doing better – yes she is (doing a little dance, even though you can’t see) :)
