Bon Jour-no Dear Reader

Dr Candy Pants


This week has been a tough week!!!
Granny went into the doctor to check on a pesky, lingering leg pain.. which turned out to be THROMBOSIS.. it sounds like an instrument in the highschool band, but apparently, it is a blood clot that formed in her leg .. In my grannies case it was very dangerous (heart condition and all).. They admitted her to try and get rid of the clots and figure out what was going on.. Thankfully, the super FINE cardiologist, Dr Candy Pants, was on the job and he started running a bunch of tests to figure out what was going on.. (he is real sweet and swarthy.. I think he might be Persian.. I wonder if I tell him my heart is aching.. he might tend to me??)
They found out that she had a major infection in her stomach that was eating away at her colon.. All day Tuesday they had to fatten up her blood so she could stand MAJOR surgery.. She had surgery late Tuesday night.. The surgeon was way cool and Mom and I were real confident granny was in good hands... she has been in ICU ever since.... her spirits are high and your prayers are appreciated..
