Grandpa Bailey

This weekend my Grandpa had an accident, he fell down his stairs causing bleeding in his brain. Sunday night he had to go into emergency brain surgery to repair the bleeders. The surgery was complex enough, but to make it even worse he had been on blood thinners and aspirin.

In the past 20 or so years my grandpa has had many visits to the hospital, when I was about 10 he fell off of a ladder onto concrete and shattered his elbow and shoulder. He almost lost his arm, but, luckily he had an amazing surgeon who was able to reconstruct it with pins, nuts, bolts, etc. I think it took him about a year to recover from that problem. Then when I was in college he had some serious problem with his heart and had to have open heart surgery, nine bypasses (thanks Dr. Millar!). Now, he has another medical hurdle to overcome. I just pray that the best outcome for him is what happens. No one wants him to come out of this not being able to enjoy life. Please keep him and our family in your prayers!
