Opening poll again

The last poll for the blog name was pretty inconclusive so I opened it again for a longer period of time. So everyone please vote again. I guess if it's inconclusive again I will just figure out where to go from there.

Prayers for Granddad

The same weekend of the my Papa's funeral, my Granddad was sick at home. My mom finally convinced him to go to the doctor with her. They did some blood tests to see if he had an infection and gave him some medicine and sent him home. While we were at the funeral the doctor's office called to tell him he was very anemic and he needed to go to the emergency room immediately for a blood transfusion. As soon as we got back from the funeral he called my mom to tell her and my parents took him to the ER.

They ended up sending him to Lubbock so they could do a bone marrow biopsy. The results were that he has acute leukemia. Because he is 84 years old chemotherapy is not an option. He has pneumonia so he has been in the hospital in Lubbock until they can take care of the pneumonia. Then he can go back to Snyder, Texas.

There is a room next door to my Grandma in the assisted living where she lives. He will be in hospice there. I'm so glad they will be together.

Please pray for him and for my Grandma. I just can't believe this is all happening. Clint and I are trying to figure out a time when we can go see him. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers.

My Papa passed away on December 11, 2009. He was 85 years old. He was a good man who loved his family and worked hard to take care of them. He was a Christian man and lived his life as one. His sense of humor was so great and I will never forget his laugh and joking spirit. He loved my Mama so much and since her passing 4 years ago, he missed her so much. He has now been reunited with her. We are so glad that he is at peace and we know we will see him again someday.
