God does miracles!

Grant went to the clinic yesterday for his regularly scheduled visit. This was the one that required the spinal tap. Rudy took Grant to the clinic and said everything went fairly smoothly. His ANC was way down compared to where it has been, so he may be fighting a bug on top of allergies. Rudy also said he did quite a bit of crying during the spinal, which isn't really normal. To explain my thoughts on that, I will have to back up.....
Saturday, we were spending time at my parent's house with our family (Keith, Kristina, Granny & Grandpa). We had been out there all afternoon and had a great time. That evening, we even decided to play a little whiffle ball with the set Trent got for his birthday. While we were playing, Granny (83) tripped running from 2nd to 3rd. She fell sideways and hit her head. But, she jumped back up, and when we told her to sit down while we finished, she insisted that we needed her to finish the game. Long story short from there.....the fall caused a brain hemorrhage and she wrecked driving home. Grandpa is ok. Granny is still fighting. She had a lot of blood on her brain that had to be removed by surgery yesterday. Things looked very hopeless on Saturday night. But, on Sunday, God did a miracle and she began to improve. She has been getting better and better since. Today, they took out the breathing tube, but, this evening, they are having to put it back in. We have seen lots of miracles in the last year with Grant and we know God is still at work with Granny.
All that is to say, Grant is very close to Granny and Grandpa. He saw her fall and knows she is sick. Things have not been "normal" for the last few days and that causes anxiety for Grant. Please continue to pray for our whole family.
