Here's the Story

Yesterday I had to leave school at midday. You may have heard a story involving Mr. Wilhorn, Texas, airports, a heart attack, my mother, and my grandmother. Here's the story, and I'm sorry if you received another version. Stories sometimes lose their accuracy on the way home.

My grandmother had a heart attack early Monday morning. She was taken to Riverview and immediately transferred to Marshfield.

May parents are in Texas on vacation. My mother flew home to be with my grandmother - her mother. I needed to drive to Minneapolis to pick up my mother from the airport.

To answer the next question: She's doing better than could be expected at this point. Once they got the blocked artery cleared, she immediately felt better. She arrived at the hospital Monday morning, and by Monday afternoon she was asking about going home the next day. The doctors still wanted her in the critical care unit overnight, but she was asking about going home. I'll find out more today after I talk to my mom.

Thanks for your prayers.
