Week of Whoe's

This week has not been a good one for our family. First my dad (83) went into the hospital on last Friday. The doctor finally told my parents that he has COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) and they wont be able to do anything for him just let it run it course. He didn't go home with oxygen but I am sure that will happen soon.

Then Chuck's grandfather (93) was found on the floor in his living room on Friday. We don't know how long he was on the floor. He fell and hit something on the way down and he has this big black and blue mark on his forehead. When they got him to the hospital the doctors said the he also has a fractured hip, he also has a virus which they think is the cause of him falling and making him weak. He is not awake at this time. If he starts to get better they will do surgery on Tuesday or Wednesday, but if he doesn't wake up he could get pneumonia. Hopefully we will hear some good news today.
