Another hit for Grandma...

So it begins....

Grandma has an appointment with the doctor today. With the way things have progressed over the last couple of weeks with her ALS, the doctor is going to tell her that she can't live by herself anymore. Whoa... I guess I didn't expect it to be so soon.

The timeline is... she will live on her own through Thomas' graduation next week. Then, she will be flying down to Atlanta anyways. After that trip, Aunt Marianne is going to drive her back up to Fayetteville to get some stuff and she will stay in Atlanta for a few months. Then, she will move in with my parents sometime this summer.

The expectation is for her to live upstairs, but that Dad and/or Tim would have to carry her up and down at night and in the morning.

It's going to get interesting, but the timeline is right. We knew that the next 6 months would be critical, so here it starts.

I guess this means that the "creature" is moving in with my parents. MuWahahaha.

Well, seriously though, continue your prayers as my family transitions.

The "creature," by the way, is Grandma's crazy, over-eating, rat dog, Pongo.

The doctor chickened out! Hopefully, we, as a family won't chicken out!
