He is my grandfather my marriage. He is turning 80 next year but right now he is in ICU recovering from having 20% of his colon taken out. After 7 pints of blood thay decided to do the surgery. It was Sunday morning so he is still pretty banged up. Sat. we though he may not need it but Sat he needed 3 more pints to keep him going.
Anyway, need some group prayers :)

concider it done my good man.My grandma who is 89.On thur,went to the ER.she was bleeding and could not find the cause.Well after a scope in the colon found many rips.
She had that fixed,taken off her blood thinner,and so far she is doing well.She might get to come home by friday.God is a wonderful power,I will pray for you grandfather.And he will uplifted,to Gods ear.Kristy
 
thanks,

He was given 2 more pints last night because his body isnt producing blood? Lack of water?
Well, he is a trooper for sure! Seen action in WW2. HE was on the Destroyer 539 in the navey. That and 2 knee replacements and 40% of his colon has already been removed so he is getting depressed. Going to see him again at 5 today.
