So just at the hospital. I honestly wonder why they don't bother to make the rooms more cheerful when patients have to live there every day. ON the plus side, if all goes well, my grandfather is scheduled to come home on Wednesday. I could tell that 7 weeks in the hospital really wore him down but nothing can conquer his fiery spirit. In fact, we had a bunch of intense Spinner family discussions about subjects such as dark matter, Herbert Hoover, and the economy. I was finally able to argue against my uncle JOhnny who argues with everybody about everything. (Something Fourish knows very well.) I love how even when we all agree, we're all arguing. Even though my once vibrant, active, grandfather can now barely walk, I can tell the sickness hasn't conquered him. In fact, he has some pretty animated poolitical conversations with the nurses. I really hope he goes home soon and I know that he will come out on top. My grandmother on the other hand is a nervous wreck. She tries to hide it but I can tell by the way she keeps grabbing on to me. WEll at least all his hair has grown back. I just can't wait to be home at this point
