Please spare a thought.


For my grandfather, who for the past four years has been bravely battling cancer, after suffering complications he was admitted to hospital Wednsday..with accute kidney failure. He underwent surgery and it showed there was a blockage due to the cancer in the bladder..or something, so they had to drain the kidneys of the toxins n such..it's seemingly worked. He's in a very bad way..and I do have a very unpleasant feeling we may be loosing him.
He's very delirious and hallucinogenic at the minute..seeing things that aren't there n such, apparently it's due to the lack of oxygen as his heart is running into trouble too.
It has been a very tough few days, I haven't spoke to her or my grandmother in some years tbf..we fell out over some personal matters and have spoke on scant occasions since, so has been difficult to say the least.
My head doesn't know if its coming or going at the minute, i've either been up the hospital or sleeping...totally lost.
Please spare a thought for a hopeful recovery, 60 really isn't an age.
