my papaw

April 09 2006

my grandpa is pretty sick - lots of prayers would be great.



he went into the hospital on Friday - they found that he had what is called "esophageal varicose" which basically means that the veins in his esophagus are bleeding.  friday night they gave him lots of blood and performed some type of surgery but, how I undertand it, is that it basically cannot be fixed.  it can be treated, but it will just come back and continue.  my family is up there now and my dad said that he has gained more than 15 pounds of water weight this weekend - things do not look good.  yesterday they gave him about 6 months



it's hard because i know he's in tons of pain - he always has been.  if you know anything about my papaw, you know that he's had lots of health problems.  please pray that God will wrap his arms around my papaw... and my entire family during this really hard time.
