Whirlwind - Hmmmm I wonder if this is my earliest entry ever? This Thanksgiving weekend or as they call it a break, was for sure not no break for me. It seemed like everything I had expected to happen didn't happen. Then again, it is God's control and not mine but now I am just left with a bunch of emotions of peaks and valleys. This weekend also reminded me of why I should be more DTA too.

Turkey Day was smaller this year, as it was just my cousins, and sis eating. Actually kind a liked it smaller this year too. Friday was Turkey Bowl, I guess or just football. Oh well, I have a lot of scrapes and scars from the ice cutting my knees up. But I'd take that over the sprained ankle I have now from Saturday b-ball. It sucks I kept playing on it, then after sharing I stopped. The low point was when Mike asked me if I could give it a go because the team needed me and I had to sit it out.

Then came Sunday morning worship, I was somewhat drained already from Guys Night. My mommy called me right after worship was over with. She informed me that my Grandma has just entered the ER at Troy Beaumont and wanted me to go right away to see what was going on. I just wanted to freeze time right there, because I did not know what to do. It was like I wanted to spend more time talking to everyone that came back home. Then I had to see what was going on with Stephanie and Carmen for today. Auntie Betty needed me to help her find the tri-pod for Jr. Church. Lil' Abby wanted me to talk to Miles because he got her all upset. It was like everything came at me like an avalanche.

I chose to go to Beaumont first, and as I was driving I could not help but think what if this was it my last chance to see my Grandma? I kept reflecting about the times we had, and praying that I can make it in time and that everything is ok. I thank you to those who had are keeping this in their prayers as well. I was escorted to the Critical Care area, and thought brought back memories of last year as my Grandma was here. The nurse pretty much told me, that my Grandma was suffering from an irregular heartbeat and showed me how her heart was beating. Her heart kept having these pauses and the time intervals kept increasing and it hit up to 7 seconds a beat. That was when they gave her some pill to speed her heart rate back up because they believed that if they didn't then she would of flatlined.

My Grandma was given other pills to take but she was unsure about it. So I was translating what each pill does and the tough part was trying to bring back all my toy-san vocab. As the day went on, I called Kristyn to give her a heads up about everything and that I will have to skip the first round for OU Playoffs with my bum ankle and that I wanted to be with my mom when she came to visit my Grandma. However, it turned out that I had to play because half the team was still gone for the weekend. Some peeps around the league had heard about my G-ma and could see I was injured and gave me props for playing.

So now what? I continue to sit by my phone waiting for Beaumont to call me what time the surgery is. It is tough because I have a presentation to give this afternoon, I wanted to hang out with Emoy before he goes back, and the 2nd round of playoffs start today. The other team already made it clear to me that they will be gunning for me since I am injured. I am tired, and drained but cannot give up.
