[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 314146, member: 4264"] My aunt safely made the 8-9 hour drive yesterday. She made it safe but many many ditched cars from snowy road conditions. My grandfather apparently looks terrible. Last night his fever spiked way up again and they have yet been able to get it down. He's going to OR again today, that makes i believe 4th surgery since Sunday night. I'm guessing that means the gangrene did indeed spread from the colon to the stomach too. This is truly bogging me down emotionally. I think I've pretty much decided that if things are this grim Monday, I'm going to talk to the kids about the importance to me of meeting him etc. Ask if they could be happy with a very minimal Christmas so that I might be able to spend a few days visiting with him. I am sure they will be fine with it, just don't want to force it on them, let them feel its their choice. :( I better take out stock in the Kleenex company [/QUOTE]
