Re: Prayer Requests Thread - September 17th 2016, 04:19 AM

Please be praying for my family right now, especially my grandfather.

On the 6th of this month, he had a mini stroke and the next morning he suffered a heart attack. When he was admitted to the hospital, he had to have two surgeries, which was to put in a balloon pump and then he had a triple bypass surgery. While he was in the first surgery, the surgeon found a stent that was lodged in the wrong place, from an old surgery. He developed a fever, and the doctors were keeping him pretty heavily sedated. When they had tried to wean him off of it, he tried to pull out his IVs and things. At one point, he was having a hard time swallowing when they woke him up briefly, and they found out by an ultrasound that he had fluid in his lungs. So they took care of that.

Well, I found out today that things aren't looking good at all. My grandfather has developed pneumonia now and has more fluid in his lungs. He's had the tube in for 11 days, and they're going to be replacing it with a trachetomy tube. Probably sometime today. The heart operation doesn't look successful, and the possibility of him recovering is very slim. Please keep praying for him and my family through this time. I don't want to loose my last grandfather, just please be praying. Thank you all.
