Hi Toni. I really sympathise with you. My nanna is 84 and about a year ago she was suffering from the same sort of thing as your nanna. She went incredibly thin and was coughing up some horrible stuff! Anyway, it turned out she had a chest infection but it got worse and the doctor failed to realise that that she also had pneumonia. Anyway, luckily she recovered. Make sure your nanna gets to see the doc. It might be something simple but with older people it affects them more. I wish you and your mom all the best. Good luck and I'll be praying for your nanna and wishing she gets better real soon. Love Deb.xx
