So they rushed him to surgery. After his appendix got taken out the doctors think it wasn't smart to take them out. He was in so much pain it made me cry. They had him eat soft foods. He didn't want to eat anything because his stomach hurt. They didn't know what to do so they just let my grandpa rest. After about a week they took the stitches out. He was doing pretty good but by they still wanted him to stay in the hospital. About a week after his surgery he said not to feel good. They did more test but then they did a scope test. The scope test is when they take a camera and they start at the mouth and go down to his liver. When they get down to the liver they saw that his liver was so scared that you couldn't really didn't do anything. So that kept giving him medicine. He was in the hospital for a long time resting. We asked the doctors if we could take him up to our cabin in Wisconsin. The doctors said that would be a good idea so we brought my grandpa to our cabin. So my grandma is packing all the stuff to get ready to go. She packed his medicine and food for the week. It was seven o'clock and we were ready to go. It is usually a three-hour drive plus stops. We got up to our cabin
