Yesterday was an eventful day for many, it began with Rusty's grandmother being rushed to the ER! Once she got to the ER they ran tests and xrays that showed a small spot on one of her lungs. Throughout the day she had several blood pressure drops which scared her, so the doctors decided to put her in ICU over night for observation purposes. As of last night the doctors think she may have the start of lung cancer. Today she is doing better she ate very well at breakfast and the doctors are moving her out of ICU and into a room. Her doctor consulted a surgeon at EMC and they are going to perform a biopsy tomorrow with a bronchial scope and examine the rest of her lung to see what condition it is in. Then Sat. they are going to run another CT scan and possibly another biopsy. So if it is lung cancer hopefully they caught it in it's early stages and can treat it with radiation or chemo. Grandma is tough she will get through this little bump in the road.
