my cousin calls me right before spinning yesterday and tells me that my grandpa is going home because they couldnt do the angioplasty (sp) because there was too much blockage. SO theyre just giving him some meds.
I walk to spinning then call my dad to tell him. I get teary but i'm ok.
THen i see my spinning teacher and we're chatting and he asks whats up how i'm doing and i just kinda lose it....not in an hysterical kid of way, but i cried. THen he tells me his uncle died 2 days ago from cancer but he was ready. I cried more because my grandpa was so scared. he;s not ready. I'm thinking i have to cancel my trip to ITF and call of work and go home to say goodbye to my grandpa. My spinning teacher says i should stay for the clas because it will probably help. He was right.
Turns out, my cousin over-sensationalized the situation. either that or whoever told him before over-sensationalized it.
He has 99% blockage in 2 arterys, so the meds arent morphine or whatever like it sounded to begi with, but stuff to thin his blood and see if they can get rid of some blockkage then catheter the bitches. So he has a few weeks. He wasnt set home to die...which is what it sounded like.
I'm worried but i'm better.
And i got a hug from my spinning teacher :)
but he's gone now. austin. damn.
see you bitches at theatre fest!
