Uhm - hi everyone.
Uh-oh - there was quite a bit of traffic in the meantime.
Thank you all for your good wishes and also sorry to hear about your families.
Somehow it seems like practically no one (including younger people) is just healthy anymore
I am still thinking we do not treat ourselves species-appropiate.
As an update on the situation over here:
Grandpa had his surgery on friday the 24th and wasn't too well over the weekend after - not so much physically, as being not fit at all was to be expected - but more liek mentally ... narcotics can really do a number on your brain. The hospital staff were already telling us that he most like would have to go into geriatric care, but from where we were standing it was way too early to make such a decision, delerious or not.
Things went up and down for the next week, but improved slowly. After 12 days in intensive care he got transferred back to the hospital here and today the doctor was stating that he'll probably can leave and go home at the end of this week. (Yes - no real rehab period as apperently they "are not doing things like that" anymore).
Anyways - this is all good news and I hope things will just continue to go well and improve (although I can already hearing him grumbling about having to slow down and rest - he's got 'bees in his behin' how we say here).
So - again: thank you all for you wishes. And I wish you all well as well.
