Grandpa
Last week John's grandpa was rushed via ambulance to the hospital for respiratory distress. He stopped breathing & had to be brought back & placed on a ventilator. He also suffered a heart attack while in the hospital. He was finally weaned off the vent today. He is still intubated and needs to remain in the hospital until his pneumonia is controlled and he is fully stable. We were able to spend lots of time checking in on him & supporting the family while he was in ICU. We weren't sure if he would recover, and we are so thankful that he did! Hopefully grandpa will be discharged home in the next few days. John already purchased a ticket to fly back this weekend for another visit - the kids & I will stay home this time. I'm so thankful that John will be able to be there to celebrate Father's Day and Grandpa's birthday (which happen to fall on the same day this year). Please pray for grandpa to continue to improve, for peace & celebration for the family, and for John's safe travel.
