You're not going to believe this...
My Grandpa didn't have a stroke. Mom got the real story today and I'm going to hell but I laughed.
Ok, everyone in our family knows that Grandapa is a diehard Pittsburgh Penguins fan; he goes to every home game. Well several days ago he was on his way to the game and fell, breaking an arm and a leg. Does Grandpa go get medical attention?
Nope, he goes to the game. WITH A BROKEN ARM AND LEG.
We're not sure yet how he managed to get back home but apparently once he got there he found himself unable to mobilize himself enough to call for help or anything else. His dementia is from dehydration, not a stroke. He's being rehydrated and he's expected to make a full recovery. He's still going down to Florida to stay with my Aunt and her family for a month or so but the doctors say other than the broken limbs he's the healthiest 81 year old man they've ever seen. So, Grandpa is fine...just stubborn and Penguins obsessed.
Some people might think it's inappropriate to laugh at this but this is just so...HIM. No one was surprised that Gramps would put up with broken limbs in order not to miss a Penguins game. Love you Gramps, don't ever change.
