Yes, my Grandfather died Thanksgiving day 1956, he lived long enough to see his first grandson (me) he was only 48, heart attack got him.
My GrandMother will be 99 this Thanksgiving, God Bless her.
Can you imagine, 99 years on this earth.?.
Gotta run, have to work and try to beat the snow.
I have a similar story but the grandfather was my 48 year old husband, his first grandson was 2 months old.He had a heart attack just before my son's birthday..and was buried just after..
My son this past year has had quadruple bypass surgery and is doing great..Everyday I should remember to praise God that he did not ignore shortness of breath,that it sent him to the doctor..
Praise God he talked to my son in law about his tests after he went home to await surgery , who promptly insisted he immediately go the hospital instead of staying home to wait on the surgeon..because of the 98% blockage he had in one artery and his symptoms..My SIL sells equipment used in heart surgery and has a lot of knowledge..He has stood by in many a surgery to monitor equipment..
It all worked together for the saving of a most precious life.
I am indeed thankful.
That's a very long life - I hope she's here this time next year - 100 years old is something!
