On Wednesday my Grammie Dowd had brain surgery. She had a sinus infection that spread to the fluid surrounding her brain. She's most upset right now because they had to shave her half head. My uncles and I offered to shave ours too, but she said she couldn't stand to have us look "so foolish". So I still have hair.
Her nurse told me tonight that she making everyone on laugh on the Neuro ICU floor. Her surgical team visited her earlier today to talk to her about the surgery, how it was really complicated and they are amazed she's recovering so quickly. Seven people went in to speak with her and after they introduced themselves she said, "What are doing here, talking to be like this? Don't you people have jobs. I'm FINE!" They told her she could have died and she said, "Well, I'm here now! Why does that matter?!"
My uncles were offering to get her whatever food she wanted. She said that she might die because she hasn't had a candy bar since Tuesday. I got her three and I'm bringing her two favorites tomorrow.
