Mom is doing well. We had a good night tonight. My mom's brother, Bill and her sister, Jill came over for dinner along with Bill's two children. We had some good food to eat thanks to some good friends and family. It has been a tiring couple of days for all of us, so having a night to relax and hang out was very much needed...they say that "laughter is the greatest medicine." I think that saying is very true and it was nice to see my mom smiling!
Grandpa is still in the Trauma Intensive Care Unit. There are rumors that he will be discharged from intensive care possibly tomorrow. Most likely he will move up to a less restrictive ward where they will continue to monitor him. His left hand has a few fractures and is VERY swollen. My Uncle Bill reported the nurses have his hand elevated in a sling in hopes that the swelling goes down. He was a little groggy tonight, but I am sure that is due to the medications he is on. The nurses in the ICU are amazing! Thankfully, they are strong and can handle my Grandfather's stubbornness...in some ways, I think that attribute is the reason he is recovering so well. :)
Thank you all for your continued prayers! Our family is so grateful!
