Hey everyone,
It's about my paw paw again. He was going in for a EEG and doctor's appointment this morning, but he fell and hurt his hip last night. Thankfully it's only cracked, not broken. But this is still scaring the shit outta me. Just thinking about him falling scares me.
I mean, he's been in poor health for the past year at least. Sleeping most of the day, eating very little, having nearly no fat on his body and saying nonsense things like the radio being too loud when it's not even on. He even started talking to me like I was my brother when we were having a secondary Christmas after the New Year with my cousins since they were at his wife's family's on Christmas Eve.
My dad is spending the night at the hospital with him since he's being kept overnight for observation. My mom is going up early in the morning at 7 to meet him and go to a meeting about my paw paw. There's no telling if she'll stay after that and my dad will bring the truck home. All I know is I will be alone the first part of the morning at least.
I'm not just scared. He's the only grandfather I've known since my other one divorced my grandma and my mother hasn't spoken to him since before she married my dad.
I'm terrified. I don't show it on the outside, but I am. I'm terrified he won't last the year.
