For those of you I haven't told my grandfather was put into the hospital yesterday. Hes a trucker by trade and has spent most of his time on the road. Well yesterday he came in and called my mother. He couldnt' walk more than four feet at a time. Apperntly all of the ateries around his heart were totaly and utterly clogged. The blood was collecting in his legs and everyone was surprised his heart was moving enough blood to keep him alive. Also hes a diabetic and had a blood sugar of 400 and something. Well they cleared two arteries yesterday and moved him out of ICU to let him heal to do the rest. Today though he flatlined. They were able to bring him back but no one expects him to live very long. I guess its time to wait and see...
