Emergency!

We've been in Cincinnati this past week because of a family emergency. Last Monday we got a call about my grandpa. (on my dad's side) He had something called a hematoma in his brain. (I think a hematoma is something like a blood clot) Apparently, they're pretty dangerous, and they said that he needed brain surgery. So we rushed down there on Tuesday, and were staying at my Grandma and Grandpa's house. (On my mom's side, they were very nice to let us do that! :D) We just got back yesterday. Well, my grandpa (or Poppi, as we call him) got his surgery, and is now recovering in the hospital. We were all praying very hard for him, because the survival rate for that type of surgery is like 50% or something. Meanwhile, my Grandma on my dad's side was put in a nursing home, we got to visit her there, she's doing fine. There was some silver lining though, we got to go see some of our cousins and aunts and uncles that we hadn't seen for a while, that was fun! Oh, and we got to take a dog home with us! My Grammy and Poppi had two dogs, and we took one home with us, his name is Danny, he's a golden retriever, and he's very sweet.
