Nurse Abby~
A few weeks ago my Grandma Olsen fell and broke her shoulder, she has been recovering but it has been a slow healing process. She has been very weak and fragile. Saturday she fell again and fractured her back, she is in a lot of pain and is having trouble doing things on her own. My mom is having her stay at her house until she has recovered enough to take care of herself. Madi and Abby stayed at my moms house all day Monday while I took Kaiden school shopping. Grandma Olsen slept most of the morning and Abby kept asking when she was going to wake up, and she kept checking on her to see if she was awake. When grandma finally woke up Abby was right there by her side. She showed her how to use the bell that she could ring if she needed anything, she sang all the Hannah Montana and Jonas Brother songs to her. She showed her the dance she is going to be doing for her dance recital. She made her pictures and decorated her room with balloons. At dinner time she wanted to get her dinner for her and she would make sure she always had something to drink. She even said she wanted to dress her up after she was done taking a shower. She stayed with her all day until my grandma finally fell back to sleep later that night. What a little sweetheart! We are so lucky to have Abby in our lives, and I think my mom is just as thankful. She told me that if she ever gets to the point that she can't take care of herself I would have to be the one to do it. I told her "no way" joking of course, but I don't think she will have any trouble getting Abby to volunteer for the job! Our family is all very worried for Grandma Olsen, we know she is in good hands with my mom but we are all praying she will make a quick recovery. We love you Grandma Olsen! Get better soon!!
