Grandma might have a difficult time dealing with the emergency without specific permission from you to authorize your son’s medical care. Illinois provides a useful form known as a Statutory Form for Appointment of Short-term Guardian. Check with your attorney: Does your state have a form that will accomplish the same goal?
