On our drive to Lubbock yesterday, we were told Grandmother might not make it through the day. She originally went to the hospital because she was struggling to breath and had serious loss of blood. Even with an oxygen mask, her lungs weren't getting enough oxygen. Sunday evening they put her on a ventilator and Monday morning, we weren't sure she was going to come back enough to join the land of the living. However, when we arrived Monday evening, it was reported that she was doing significantly better. She was fully conscious and aware, even responding to questions with nods or shakes of her head. (She can't speak with the tubes in her mouth) She isn't out of the woods yet, but two messages she wrote to us, made us all feel as if she were getting back to her old self. The messages were:
" You need to shampoo the carpets."
and
"The dishwasher isn't working"
And as the women in my family are commonly referred to as "Those bossy Sanders women" the fact that her bossiness is returning, is an excellent sign.
Of course your prayers are still incredibly appreciated, but we are feeling increasingly optimistic. Thank you for your continuous thoughts and prayers.

Thanks for the update. We've been keeping her in our thoughts and prayers. My mom said she was heading out there. Have you seen her yet?

she is here right now, in the kitchen cleaning dishes. :)
My prayers are with you and your family ... sounds like my mother! Nancy
Your grandmother sounds like she's got a lot of life still in her and even when you're all feeling low, she still helps you find the funny. Sending positivity & prayers from L.A.
