Not Engaged Yet

Just down

First of all, this isn't a pity post. Just talking it out since I am down.

My Grandpa Friday night, had a heart attack. Come to find out that there isnt much they can do except give him meds.  He needs a stint put in, but with his age/health it would be too dangerous since he is already low on blood. So I'm glad they aren't chancing it, but now just gotta hope the meds do enough to keep his heart going.

I did see my mom Saturday. She came and picked me up and we went up to see him and then we went to dinner. It went really well, due to the fact we had Papaw to talk about. I didn't say a word about anything else in our past and things did go really well. I'm going to hope things stay that way.

Oh, and I miss the sh!t outta my man. We are used to not being together all the time but, it's come to the point of my heart just plain out sad that I can't see him till Nov 20th.  Talking to him doesn't help, only makes it worse.  I miss his face. How he smells. How he holds me.

    I'm sorry you're going through this.  I watched my Papa go through hell from Thanksgiving until he passed away this March.  He had heart issues, circulation, infection, it just all kept piling up.  They couldn't fix one thing because some other part of his body couldn't handle it.
    It was a really hard time for him and my family.

    I hope the meds stabilize him and they can get in there to fix it. 

    FWIW, we thought we lost my grandfather 3 years prior when his heart stopped and he aspirated while being life-flighted.  He was in St Thomas and a rehab facility for 60 days.  He survived. Life was a little harder for him, but he saw two more great-grandkids come into this world, saw 3 more grandkids get married, and passed his 61st wedding anniversary. 


    And I love that you call him Papaw.  Mine will forever be my Papa.

    Ugh, I'm sorry to hear this.

    My grandma was hospitalized over the weekend as well. She has cancer and diabetes, and apparently some of her meds are now affecting her heart. I was really worried about her all weekend. Thankfully, with her new meds she's doing better and may even go back home in a few days.

    I hope your grandfather responds to his meds and is feeling better soon :-)

    Keep us posted.

    Thanks Ladies. I really appreciate the thoughts. Musik, hope your grandma gets better too. I'm just glad that I'm actually down here in AR while this is going on so I can see him.

    I can't say anything more than everyone else.  I'm glad to hear that things went pretty well with your mother.

    As far as missing your SO.  I remember how that felt when FI & I were still LDR.  It's tough and I wish I had some great thing to say to make you feel better or make it easier, but I don't.  I do have to say though, going through the LDR made us much stronger as a couple.  Hope the next month goes by quickly for you though!

    I'm so sorry you are going through this. I hope your Papaw recovers quickly. My heart goes out to you as I lost my Pappy a month ago today. I'll keep you and your family in my thoughts.
