WE LOVE GRANDPA!!!!


This is garrett's sweet sweet grandparents. We love them like brecken loves fruit snacks!! If you could only know how much that kid loves fruit snacks. They are so nice and would do anything for us. Grandpa has a true love of coke. Every holiday or get together we make sure there is coke for grandpa. He is a funny, stubborn, and a hard working guy. He makes stuff out of wood that people would pay the big bucks for.
Grandpa has become very sick in the last few months, ending up getting two blood transfusions and a bone marrow test done in the last month. We just found out on friday that he has some sort of blood cancer called MDS. I'm not exactly sure what it is but they have only given him 3-6 months to live without treatment. With treatment it may extend his time here on earth with us but it may not. The treatment is a 50-50 chance of working. We pray that he will be with us for many years to come. So we are hoping for the best. We know the next little bit will be hard for him but by golly if anyone can pull through it's gpa. WE LOVE YOU GRANDPA!!!
