Answers:
For the moment the best thing you can do is say a prayer for him and your grandma to have peace!! And peace for your mom and dad after that, then you ask for peace for yourself!.

I am sure you are frantic to know what is the matter with grandpa, but you will just have to be a bit patient to find out!. The doctors probably are running all kinds of tests to figure it out too!. They have to be right, so they don't just guess!!! And the tests take a lot of time!.

These things happen!! It just might be that he got too hot from his workout with the lawn mower!. and is nothing serious!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i dont know that much about medical stuff, but my best guess is a heart attack!. or possibly a stroke!. when my gpa had a stroke, it was kinda similar, only he didnt collapse, he said that the right side of his body was kinda numb all the sudden, and he was barely able to call anyone!. but luckily, he did, and we called 911, and the paramedics came!. he turned out all right, even to this day, taht was about 5 yrs ago maybe!.!.!.

so my best guess would be heart attack!. possibly a stroke tho!?!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Texas is mighty hot right now, so it could be as simple as heat stroke (which isn't an actual "stroke", which is damage to the brain) or heat exhaustion!.
Either would certainly cause him to feel woozy!.
All you can do right now is to let the docs figure out what it is!. There's no sense in second-guessing them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Im a NYS emt all I can say is it might be a heart attack or a stoke one of the two because the symtoms you just mentioned her sound like any of those 2!. Once you saw him collapse you should have checked his neck for a pulse asap because if he had a pulse all he would need was cpr and while doing CPR have someone call 911!. My suggestion if it happened once it is bound to happen again maybe you should look into learning CPR trust me that can definately save his life!. :) I Hope he's better!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
