Grandfather Post Heart Attack. Posted: 02-22-06 19:33pm
Ok my grandfather who I am quite concerned
about was perfectly fine and everything
was great, had to go in for open heart
surgery. At the end of it he took a heart
attack the second one of his life time.
After 4 weeks in intensive care, he is
breathing on his own, and off pretty much
all the drugs, although he has lost a ton
of weight he can't even walk anymore his
legs are so skinny but I am sure they will
gain that back through rehab.
My concern: whenever I go to visit him he
is always very confused, he says very
random stuff like "who paid for the
pizza?" is just an example. The doctors
say that he can snap out of it but I am
just very concerned. Is anyone familiar
with this?
