My grandfather is in the hospital. He is said to be doing ok, but I don’t know what to think. My uncle found him in his office doubled over, unconscious and soaked in sweat. They say it appears to be either a stroke or a very bad infection. They are leaning towards the infection because the tests appear negative for the stroke. He has had a stroke before, that is why we are so worried.

I am going down in about a month. I am wondering if I should go earlier. My aunt is going, but I don’t want my grandfather to get too irritated with us “kids” doding over him to make sure he is ok. It’s our job. They did it to use when we were younger, now we get to payback!!! Well, no matter what I’ll be down there in a month to see everyone, so he and my grandmother will have to suffer through some doding from their daughter, granddaughter, two great granddaughters and great grandson. This will be one interesting trip.

Someone remind me to buy a Y headphone jack splitter. I want to keep my nieces busy on the plane by watching movies on the laptop. Either that or I’m keeping them awake all night before we leave in the morning. Which ever seems to work best. Maybe I’ll chase them around the airport. That could work too. Hmmmm.. so many ideas!
