Grandpa Reed Back in the Hospital

We got a call in the middle of the night last night that they took Grandpa Reed back to the hospital. He hasn't been feeling good for a few days and they thought that he had a sinus infection, but last night he just wasn't acting right so they decided to take him in to get looked at. They initially thought that he was having another head bleed, but when they did another CT scan today with contrast they found just what none of us expected.....a tumor. It has been very devastating news to all of us and we are just waiting and praying for some good news. They are doing some further scans of his body to see if there are any other tumors and we are just waiting the result of that to determine what the next step will be. The doctor said that if everything else comes back clear they will plan to do surgery to remove the tumor in his brain on Monday. It has been a very emotional day for everyone, but Grandpa is really keeping a good attitude about the whole thing. He has really been giving the doctors and nurses something to smile about. Pray for Grandpa Jerry and for good news!

Thanksgiving

I had to work today so some of our day was spent apart. Layne and Corbin went to Grandma and Grandpa Reed's for a while to visit. Fortunately for me, Layne was kind enough to bring Scooter to the hospital to eat a turkey lunch with me. It was was lots of fun and I am very grateful that they came. Once I got off work we went to Grandma Bateman's for dinner. She worked very hard and made a fantastic Thanksgiving meal as always. It was kind of a smaller group than we normally have a Grandma's, but we still had a good time. Of course it wouldn't be Thanksgiving without some of Grandma's amazing homemade ice cream. Afterwards, we drove to Grandma and Grandpa Green's house for a visit. It was really nice to see everyone and appreciate all the great food. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
