Grammy update

She was doing much better yest. We all went to see her (Dad stayed home with the dogs). She was sitting up in the chair, I guess she was there all day :o)

She looked much better, stopped vomiting and was in good spirits.

They did a KUB yest. to see about her abdominal bloat, we'll get those results today. She'll have further tests this week I would believe.

So at this point, she had suffered a heart attack some time around being admitted on Friday night. They did a CT as she reported some trouble breathing, the CT showed a large mass in her lung (tumor mass in L upper and lower lobe with extensive adenopathy). They want to make sure it hasn't spread into the chest wall, belly or surrounding areas, that's why they are concerned with the bloating. So, she has lung cancer and they also think she may have pneumonia also.
They are doing well at stabilizing her heart with medications and I guess we'll then work out biopsying the tumor, etc...
Will keep you updated.
Please keep praying for Grammy! I have some renewed hope that she may hang on for a while and maybe by the grace of God meet her Great Grandbaby! Please, oh please!!
God Bless!
