Prayer Requests

Okay, so there’s a lot of crazy stuff going on with my family right now. We really need some prayers!

So, my grandma (mom’s side) was put in the hospital yesterday because she has been confused lately. Like, she’ll go into a room and then just stand there, then my grandad would ask her what she was doing and she’d say she didn’t know, so he’d ask why she went into the room and again she’d say she didn’t know. Whenever my granddad suggested telling my mom about it, she would get really upset with him and object to telling my mom.

Well, now she’s in the hospital and had to get an MRI done. She has ephysema and asthma which have caused her lungs to deterierate to the point that it’s irrepairable. So, they’re going to put her on an oxygen tank and see how that does. The reason she has been so confused lately was because of the lack of oxygen to her brain. Everything is fine in her brain though, just the lack of oxygen. She shouldn’t be out of the hospital for a few more days, but if she gets out by the weekend, my mom’s going to go and stay with her parents for a bit to help the adjust to my grandma living with the oxygen tank. But we’re still nervous about what else could be happening because she also has glaucoma which is gradually getting worse, I believe. Just keep her in your prayers because we lost my aunt (mom’s sister) in November of 2006 and it’s been a tough recovery from that.

Also, on that note, my uncle (the aunt’s husband) called earlier to tell my mom that the house (and everything left of my aunt, including their 3 dogs) was burnt to the ground. My uncle also lost his truck. Thankfully nobody was home, but sadly that’s why everything perished in the fire. All they have left of my aunt in her wedding ring and another ring that she gave my cousin before she passed away. Just pray that they can recover from that because I dunno what I’d do if a fire happened at my house and so I can’t imagine everything that was left of my significant other burn like that. It’s such a sad, scary thought.

And I have one more! My mom’s having surgery on May 19. I would explain why, but it’s prolly not something she wants me sharing with the entire internet… Just pray that it goes well and she makes a speedy recovery. :]

Thank you so much for doing this, our family erally needs it right now. And since I’m going off to college in a little over 3 months, it’s gonna be really tough on everyone because I’m the last kid outta the house and my mom says I’m the comic relief of the family. (See the post from April 27, 2008) Well, I love you all. Toodles!
