Emergency trip to Kansas

On Friday, grandma went to the hospital because she had a fever, was vomiting, and her leg was really red. Aunt Julie texted mom saying something like "I'm no doctor, but I think this is 'it.'" They gave her antibiotics and that seemed to perk her up some, but yesterday morning got worse again. She was diagnosed with sepsis and given more antibiotics. Aunt Gina (who is a nurse) drove up and looked at her chart, and she said it looked like she had had a heart attack, and wasn't sure she was going to make it. Aunt Cindy, mom, me and Ryan bought plane tickets last night, fearing the worst (of course Vicki understood). Amazingly, grandma is feeling better this morning, and turned out she hadn't had a heart attack after all. Mom was talking to her and she seemed pretty cheerful! We're still going to visit (mom and I are leaving tonight, and Ryan will leave on Monday. He hasn't seen grandma in person since 2007!!)..things could always take a turn for the worse again (I didn't see my paternal grandma before she died, and have regretted it ever since). Grandma's health is awful, so I'm amazed at how her body keeps fighting! Hopefully having many people around who love her will help her heal too lol. Ryan and I are staying a week, mom more if needed. I hope she continues to improve!

Not the best picture of me, but Abby loves being held like a baby haha
