October 8th

Today was a difficult day for Grandma. I arrived at 7:30. She had a picc line put in last night to get her medicine put in because her veins are so bad.

The nurses did not know that they were supposed to wait for an x-ray to make sure that the picc line was put in correctly. Apparently, according to the doctors, this is ridiculous that they did not know.

Makes us worried for her. Some of the staff is fabulous. Some are not so fabulous.

Today she found out that she has a blood clot in each leg. They are in her superficial veins, which apparently is better than other veins. They are giving her two blood thinners right now to get the clots to go away.

Please pray that she does not fall or get cut at all. This could cause serious bleeding and be detrimental.

Grandma will be leaving the rehab hospital around the 15th and going to the Prestonwood nursing and rehab facility until she gets better. Please pray that she can continue to work towards her goals of going home.

Pray that God will give her peace and joy in Him.

Thanks so much for your prayers, sweet cards, and flowers. They brighten her day!

Sarah
