Its been a crazy week

To start with Chad left Monday and wasnt going to be back home till Friday because of work. My Nana last weekend kept having dizzy spells so I told her that I wanted her to go to the doctor to check on it before we would be leaving for our trip to Texas to visit Chad's family and to take our neice back who has been visiting since July 16th. So she goes to the doctor monday and they find that her heart rate if very very low so he puts in a referral to see the heart dr. So wednesday they call and she goes in for her appt with the heart dr, she gets there and within 5 min of her being there and them seeing how low her heart rate was and how high her blood pressure was he says I am admitting you to the hospital and we will be putting a pace maker in tonight!! So I had just gotton back with the kids from the pool thinking she is just at her appt and I get a call from her telling what is going to happen. I have NEVER been so SCARED in my whole life. I had 3 kids at home with me and I needed to get to the hospital to be with her. I got a grip and was able to get ahold of 2 of my wonderful friends to watch the kids so that I could meet my brother at the hospital to be with her thats one of the hard things with Chad's job I cant just call him at work like normal jobs and say hey this happen, I didnt have a way to get ahold of him till he was home Friday to fill him in . Thankfully everything went good and she is doing great now recovering but its scary to think what could of been the doctor said if they didnt put the pace maker in it would just be a matter of time till her heart would stop. None of us were expecting that she has always been in great shape and the doc said that is why she didnt pay attention to little things over time she is so active. A normal persons heart rate per min is between 60 to 100 and hers was down to 33 bpm. Our trip to Texas will not be happening now and I will be staying here with her, im not comfertable going off so far with her recovering. But it just goes to show you how sometimes things happen for certain reasons to uncover a much more serious need that needs to be made. Im have nothing but praises for her being okay and this be taken care of . GOD IS GOOD !!
