My Grandpa Marlan had a heart attack on the night of the 15th and for the next week leading up to Christmas was running every single second. He is ok, but it was a significant heart attack. He won't be as physically healthy as he has been in the past, but we are just so thankful that he is ok and still with us. My Grandma had to go to the nursing home and is still there. He gets out on Friday and goes home, which makes us all feel a little nervous. My uncle Jeff stayed with us from New York and my Mom was in and out too. I'd visit him every day after school and before I picked up the kids. Dan was great and visited him once as well along with picking up the kids on many of the days so that I could stay at the hospital longer. I love my Grandpa so much. He's always been such an important part of my life. When he was transferred to Mayville hospital Svea came with me to visit on Christmas Day while Dan stayed home with a napping Kieran. She gave him a nice hug and then when we visited my Grandma in the home she sang her Christmas songs. It was so cute. Grandma would mouth the words to "Away in a Manger" and Svea would sing another one. It is a nice memory that this post will hopefully help me remember.
I will post again on Svea's Christmas program, Christmas, our trip out to Wisconsin, and a hearing update on Kieran soon!
