Today is pretty crappy

If he gets through this, he will probably be able to walk again, if they send him to a rehab facility for physical therapy. It all depends on how long his is "down" in bed. The longer he is unable to get up and around (even sit in the chair), the more difficult it will be for him to be able to walk again on his own.

G-pa came through the surgery fine. The bones were starting to heal so that's good & bad. A little extra pain because the surgeon had to break them apart, but it's good that it will heal. He was pretty out of it last night, but his sense of humor was in tact & his vitals were good. Hopefully they let him come back to our hospital for a few days & work on his walking. Thanks for all the prayers.

Good for Grandpa

He may just do better than expected!

I'm glad to hear that the surgery's over and your Grandpa can mend now.

I believe the surgery will definitely help him heal & feel better quicker than he was going to without it.

Thank goodness the surgery is over. You are a wonderful granddaughter, and I'm sure he feels your love.
