Grandma Weigel

Nikki (and others) :
I read your comment and wanted to let you know that Grandma is doing fine. She did have a heart attack (or two) on Monday morning. They are planning to put a stent in in a day or two. She still has dye in her system from the tests they ran at St Cloud hospital on Monday morning. Once they know that it has been flushed out they will be able to do the procedure.
They are working with her to educate her on her diabetic management plan which includes two types of insulin-the slow even release one that she takes each night and the shots she will give herself whenever she eats where she adjusts the dosage to offset the number of carbs consumed. She is being taught by dieticians how to count carbs and what to eat.
She is anxious to go home but knows she will be staying for a while. She got tons of visitors and phone calls today (Tuesday) and is very good spirits. I think I have your cell phone number, Nikki, and will give you a call when I know of other news to share.
I am so glad to see you have joined us on here and look forward to hearing from you!
Love you all!
Just me,
Kiash
