My sweet grandmother finally got to come home from rehab last week. Since that time we have just been taking it day by day. She still has a long road ahead of her and we've got to get all her medications worked out but she's home with the people she loves at least. My mom and aunts have been rotating spending the nights with my grandparents so my grandfather doesn't have to do it alone. Nannie does not walk on her on yet and is still very weak but we have a lot of hope with continued therapy she will regain some of her strength. Thats our prayer anyway. Each day Chris, the boys and I pay her a visit. The kids are probably too loud but her entire face lights up when they walk in the room so I know she loves it. She asks for them daily. Kal-El picks her flowers everyday. Since we live next door to them the walkway in between our homes is starting to look pretty bare...lots of sticks and stems ...not many flowers left! Today he managed to pull a rather large stem'y' branch out and refused to let me cut it stating "it would make Nannie sad" I didn't argue with him. So into the house with the tree he went. She was pleased with her mini tree :) This has been a long week for everyone and I admire the strength of every member of our family and how each of us bring something different to the table during this difficult time. We will be by Nannies side every step of her recovery!

Yayy Nannie home! I happy to hear her spirits are up and that's so sweet Kal-el brings her flowers.
ReplyDeleteI know how you feel. May of 2012 my grandma was hospitalize for her surgery and when she got out the hospital after 6 weeks I was so happy. She couldn't walk either and she had no strength. Me and my mom took turns rotating spending the nights with her and now I'm her primary caregiver. She now has her strength back and is doing much better. Prayer Changes Things!
So I will keep Nannie in my Prayers.
