The Power Of The Straight Dope Compels you...(or not)

Due to the amazing success Hal Briston received with his housing request I am asking for the power of the dope to be used to help my grandmother.

Last month (or was it the month prior) she fell at home and spend t a few days in the hospital before bring moved to a rehab center.

Two weeks ago she was supposed to have a UTI test performed to see why she was urinating as much as she did. Before the test could be administrated she had a “panic attack” and her BP went very high.

She had to be admitted to the hospital again where they say she has pneumonia. While being treated for that she starting to suffer from diarrhea.

Now the doctors say she can go back to the rehab center when her diarrhea stops.

I need the positive thoughts from the Dopers for her health and well being. I know that if the power of the Dope can get Hal the house of his dreams it can help here.

Much luck to your Granny.

MannyL good thoughts and prayers headed to your grandmother. Hope she’s better real soon.

OK, but AFTER this I still want my Powerball lottery win!

May whatever gods there be, be with you and your grandmother.

Prayers on the way! Hugs to you and your granny.

I don’t think the Power that is the Straight Dope will provide material gain in the form on money. I think it assists with Food, Shelther and Health.

With that said, if you were going to start a foundation to help student dopers go to school and provide them money for food and shelter I don’t see why the Power of the Straight Dope won’t send fortune you way. :slight_smile:
And everyone thanks for the wishes

What, no sex? :frowning:

Aside, best wishes for your grandmother.

Hey, don’t be throwing caveats like that on the power of the Dope! At least not until after I post my “win the lottery” thread.

That said, here’s sending some good health vibes your grandmother’s way, Manny.

Very best wishes to your grandma for a rapid and complete recovery!

Best wishes and healing thoughts to you and your grandmother. Hope she’s back on her feet very soon.

Hope your grandmother’s health improves very soon.

Well she is now out of the hospitial and back in rehab. Here’s hoping she recovers enough there to come back home.

Wow, this power of the Straight Dope stuff really works!

Congratulations, Manny, good news. :wink:

Glad to hear the news!

Now, about my lottery winnings…

Love heals. Spend time with her. Talk to her like she’s a human. Be her friend. I learned from my grandfather-in-law that those things can move mountains. Good mental health aids good physical help.

I think if you are worried enough about your granny to post here, you probably already do those things. In which case, our good wishes are plan B. (Not that there is anything wrong with that)

Give her a hug for every good wish you get here.

Granny’s are great. I hope yours comes home soon.
