grandpa update

so, grandpa is off breathing tube thing and out of the regular icu...he's in the transitional icu, which isn't great, but is better than before. he still has a hard time talking and can't swallow and has liquid in his lungs, but he's doing better overall. so yes, we're being hopeful.

thanks again to all the support you guys have given me. it's been pretty incredible.

great

to add insult to injury, i have a high fever and am achy and possibly have the flu. as if i haven't missed enough work last week. and, as if i didn't have better things to worry about. blah. am at parents' house, drinking warm tea and waiting for my mommy to get back from visiting grandpa, who i am, for obvious reasons, not allowed to visit now.

i'm past frustration and into hysterical laughter, it would seem. everything is far funnier than it maybe it should be. well, at least i'm feeling fairly cheerful despite the fever. good times. these past several days haven't been good for health issues, have they?

back to bed and reading a book. at least i can get some reading done, i suppose. hopefully, it's not the flu and i can go back to work tomorrow.

apologies for whining so much the last week or so. streak of insanity has to end sometime, right?
