So glad to hear she is doing well. I am amazed at how active they have patients right after surgery these days, but it is so much better . . . they seem to heal quicker, regain agility sooner, have less chance of pnuemonia or blood clots and I think emotionally when you feel you are doing something "pro-active" in your own health, it really helps keep depression away. The best thing you and your family can do is to continue to be your grandma's "cheerleaders." Hope things are going well with "Grandpa" as it sounds like he can be "hardnosed". I think sometimes men, especially from that era, don't know how to show emotion, so instead they respond in a way that seems attacking or grumpy. My own grandpa died when I was very young, but the memories I had of him were very gruff. Looking back and having heard stories, I realize that deep down he was a softy. He was just from that "real men don't cry" generation. Sneak up on him with a hug! It will probably scare the gizzards out of him, but deep down, it will warm his soul. Blessings to you all!

I just saw this posting. Sure hope your Grandma heals quickly and without any problems. So scary when they get older and the bones are weakened. My thoughts are with all of you.

I want to thank you all again for replying and for your prayers. Grandma did move into the hospital rehab and is excercising daily. She is in some pain, but she is up and moving and has had no complications. That truly is a miracle!
Thanks girls! (((HUGS)))

Oh Bonnie, I am so glad Grandma did go to rehab. I sure the hosp. wouldn't discharge her until she did the rehab. and grandpa will just have to wait. How is he doing? Your grandma remains in my thoughts. MB
