Howdy,

My Dad's dad fell today. He's 90. He broke his hip and one of his shoulders. He is in the hospital in Houston. My folks are headed down in the morning to see him and get more info. In the meantime, we'd sure appreciate prayers for him. Thanks.

Scott, I'm praying your granddad will quickly recover to his state of health previous to the accident.

Re: Grand Dad fell and busted hip and shoulder

First, I'm jealous that you have a GrandDad that is 90. :thumb:
And an active Dad as well.

Prayers sent.
What is Grand Papa's first name?

Life is good & then we must go. I pray Grand Dad's remaining days are painless. May God be with him.

After a better evaluation, it turns out that the leg break is in the femur and not in the hip. This is a good thing. They evaluated him today to see if they think he can withstand surgery. The plan is to operate tomorrow (Monday). Mom did not say anything about the shoulder break :shrug:

Re: Grand Dad fell and busted hip and shoulder

Prayers for minimal pain and a speedy recovery. Thank goodness it was not the hip!

Prayers of healing for your Granddad and comfort for your family.
 
Re: Grand Dad fell and busted hip and shoulder

The leg surgery went very well today and only took about 45 minutes! They inserted a rod directly into the femur. Apparently, they can do this with minimal cutting so the recovery should be fairly quick. Not sure how long he will have to stay in the hospital. I think the shoulder is expected to just heal on its own and they will keep an eye on it.
 
Re: Grand Dad fell and busted hip and shoulder

Glad to hear it. Hope he rehabs quickly.
 
Re: Grand Dad fell and busted hip and shoulder
