Arizona was a whirlwind! 🌵 We no more arrived a Arizona was a whirlwind! 🌵 We no more arrived and I was driving my grandma to the emergency room. She’s a healthy, beautiful 86 year old but unfortunately, she broke her hip! 🚑  From the ER they took her by ambulance to the hospital and within a few short hours she was in surgery. Of course with Covid, everything felt a bit more escalated. I was alone with my grandma, the rest of my family being in the Midwest and our grandpa being a recently gained angel in Heaven! Thankfully, Brandon was in Arizona with me, waiting back at my grandma’s giving me support the support I needed while I waited in the hospital parking lot. The Covid restrictions were lifted the day before her surgery so fortunately, I was able to visit her for a couple of hours in the ER and the hospital. (Only one visitor per the AZ restrictions) I wasn’t allowed in the ambulance or in the waiting room during surgery but we do realize how fortunate we were that my grandma didn’t have to walk through this completely alone! Even the short time I could enter the hospital was a blessing. All in all she handled everything like a CHAMP! My mom flew out ✈️ on Sunday to take over for me and Brandon and my grandma is on the up and up. Thank you all for your love and support. In the scary unknown, it really was such a blessing! 💗 @liketoknow.it http://liketk.it/39xZl #liketkit #LTKunder50 #LTKtravel #LTKshoecrush
