grandma update

Mar 07, 2009 18:11

Okay, here is a small update on grandma.

My aunt visited her today (we decided that we would rotate, since she's on ICU) and my grandma recognized her immediately. She still can't breath on her own, though the doctors decrease the machine step by step...but for now she's not breathing enough on her own.

She understood everything they told her...(they told her that she flew with a helicopter and such things) but she couldn't remember that, which is normal I think. Most of the time you can't remember such things when you were out...so to say.

They still have no idea what caused the whole situation...my dad thinks it probably has to do something with her blood pressure, but no one knows for sure.

All we know is, that she's scared..a lot. Not so long ago she told my cousin that she's very afraid of death..and now waking up in a hospital with something in your throat..certainly didn't help, that's for sure.

But for now I'm just happy that she recognized my aunt (her daughter) so there hopefully won't be any brain damage...

Thank you all for your support, I'll keep you updated.

grandma, personal
