Subject: I am home from hospital but Grandma is still in>>

I just wanted to let you all know that they were able to get my dibetes under control with diet. I do not have to take
shots. Yipppe Thank you all so much for your prayers, good thoughts, cards and e-mail. The Doctor says I will probably be
having the baby with in a couple of weeks. I am getting so excited. Well, I told several of you about my Grandma and figured I would also give an
update on her. She went in June 15 to the hospital and needed a quadruple by pass, but the Doctors were kind of scared
beings that she only has one lung and it doesn't even have it's full capacity. Her diaphram is also paralized. They went ahead and did surgery on her on June 18
and it went well. The only problem was that when they took the venilater out of her she could not breathe and they had to put it
right back in. They finally got her off the venilter but she still was having problems breathing, so they hooked her up to some
other sort of breathing machine that pushes oxygen into her lungs. It is a mask type thing she has to wear. Well, yesterday they
found a spot on her lung of fluid and went in with a needle to get it out and her lung collapsed. She has been fighting real hard,
but is having a very difficult time breathing and my mom is scared that she may not make it. She is still in I.C.U. and on the
breathing machine and all. If you all could please keep her in your prayers and thoughts I would feel so much better. I know a
lot of you will and it really helps when people pull together for something like this. I will be going to see her on Monday. I have
a feeling she is not going to make it to her grand-daughters wedding on June 30 and will also miss the birth of this baby I am
having, but hopefully she will pull out of this. Thanks again to you all, Love Terri
