Major Health Issues
Posted: March 12th, 2012, 9:33 pm
Prayer request for 3 issues:
1. one of my partners' mother suffered a major stroke last week, was unresponsive for 3 days, and died Friday night. She was 59 YOA. Understandably, he is devastated- no warning whatsoever. Prayers for him, his wife and their family. They are also expecting - she is due in less than 2 months.
2. another co-worker's mother is in poor health, was recently admitted for a major infection, ended up trach'd and on a vent. She has been discharged to home but not in good shape. Prayers for him, his wife and their young daughter.
3. MY 89 YO maternal grandmother suffered a massive stroke yesterday morning. I was working at the time and able to respond quickly - in time to meet with paramedics on scene and ensure she was transported to the appropriate facility, but she remains unresponsive and to be honest- terminal. We don't expect to have more than several days with her, at MOST. Prayers needed for my family, esp my mother (who lost her father several years ago as well) and my wife and kids- who have been negatively affected as I've spent the majority of the last 2 days running from work to the hospital and back.
One BIG positive: my grandmother is a devout believer (and a huge fan of Jerry Falwell as well!) and very outspoken in her faith. She has been saying for years now how much she is looking forward to going to be with Jesus as well as my grandfather. It does make it a bit easier on my family but we hate to see her in this condition and want her to have peace.
thanks in advance to all of you.
