I give you the long story...
so i went over to my grandfathers house last friday to help me change my brakes on my car.. well after doing the job he says he dont feel well and that he has not had a movement for 4 or 5 days so we told him to get his ass into the doctors. He went in that day and had some sort of test done and said he had a blockage and get to the hospital. Saturday they took him in and did the camera up the butt thing and found out it was NOT a blockage but it was a tumor and he needed surgery on SUNDAY... So they took him down Sunday and it was to take place like 9am to 11am and then rest for a hour before coming back to his room. Well 1 came and went and then 2 came and went and we asked what was going on and they said he was still under the knife, he finally got done around 330pm. So monday came and all of a sudden his blood pressure fell to almost nothing meaning that he was still bleeding, so monday night he had to undergo another surgery and hes been under MAJOR Meds since then (hes been sleeping since mon night)
Sunday took out the tumor
monday night they had to remove his spleen and either remove or disconnect his colon
meaning that now he has to live with the bag (what we have no idea how is going to react to this) since hes been out since monday night . They said they would give him 48 hours under meds to keep him knocked out and would start to bring him out of it last night (weds) but the doctor is now saying maybe tonight or this weekend ..
his heart beat and blood pressure was
Monday 104 (very high) blood was very low due to bleeding)
tuesday 90s blood was 150/75
weds mid 80s blood was like 125/70 i think
i have no idea what the second number is on the machines its like 13 to 17 I know all of the alarms go off if it hits 19 cause choking and it jumped to 22 to 26 and the nurse came in and sucked out his mouth.
we all though he would be coming home next week but now how the doctors talk it could be up to a month or longer... hes really going to love to see this bill. (my aunt fell last month and he went nuts on that bill LOL)
SORRY FOR THE LONG STORY but now i will try to get back on point ...
tuesday the doctor comes in and tells about the bag and we are like we dont know how he is going to handle this and the doctor goes... well if he pulls though and everything heals maybe in a few months i can rehook the colon up.. (what was sort of weird cause we thought they removed it )
wouldn't the colon die if it did not have bloodlflow though it for weeks or months...
maybe they can but i though tissue would die if it did not have blood flowing though it .
Hopefully tonight or this weekend he will come out of it and wake up and be his old self
