Sad Times

Just got word this evening that Granddaddy is slipping into a slight coma. His blood pressure has dropped drastically and he has become non responsive and not eating or drinking. I can't begin to tell you how hard it is to be away from the family during these hard times. My mom and the hospice nurses are helping Nana tremendously, so hopefully he'll be able to stay at their house the duration of his time here. The nurse assigned to him only lives about 15 minutes away and assured Nana to not hesitate to call if she needs her for any reason...that makes me feel good that people care so much. We're planning on making a trip home early Friday morning, I just hope it isn't too late. Please keep our family in your prayers, and hope that his last few days with us are pain free.
