Thank you for your concern. For years we've said "he's not going to make it another year", and yet somehow he astonishes everyone and makes it another year, then another, and another. Now we're not expecting him to make it more than a few weeks. He might astonish us and make it a few months, but I'll be surprised.
His first heart attack was when I was 16, 15 years ago. He's had 2 since then. He has dementia and doesn't even know who I am. Half the time, he doesn't know who his own son is (my dad).
It's been tough. I just pray my oldest remembers him. I wish he could know all the war stories I've heard. My grandpa use to tell WWII stories. When I got old enough to want to document them, he was getting top be too old... Had bad dreams and such.
My grandpa is an honorable man that risked his life to protect the freedom of more. He was so close to becoming a doctor, but got drafted and became an ambulance driver.
Guess I had more to say than I thought I did. Thank you for listening. My grandpa's a good man, and even if he pulls through another 5 years, my kids will never know the man I knew.
