As soon as she got home though she started needing constant care and once again her memory was really fading! After being back in Roosevelt for about 4 weeks I offered to go and spend the weekend with Grandma. I got there on a Thursday afternoon (in the end of April). Shortly after I got there the Home Health nurse called and told me she thought we should take Grandma to the ER. She was in a lot of pain, wasn't really eating, and alot of other complications that probably shouldn't be mentioned!! We took her to the hospital and after a few tests they admitted her. She had a very contagious infection that they think she got from the Care Facility in Orem. It went undetected for so long that it caused a lot of pain which needed surgery to repair. Grandma had the surgery in May and is now recovering at a care facility in Roosevelt. She is doing so much better. It was fun to visit with her. She seemed so happy. I am not sure if she knew our names, but she knew which family we belonged to at least!! The suprising thing about Grandma was the color of her hair. Since her surgery in January she hasn't colored her hair which makes her look a lot different to me. We sure love little Grandma and we are glad she is recovering!
