Prayer request
I have a request for my Mom.
Last Friday the staff of the home she was living at found her on the floor of her apartment when she didn't come down for dinner. They got her to the hospital asap and called me. It was found that she had had a small heart attack. (can someone at 91 have a SMALL heart attack?) Meds were started to help her but she had an allergic reaction to something and almost died when her tongue swelled up and almost choked her.
We knew she what wanted and relayed the info to the medical staff that no heroic actions were wanted. She has since been resting sedated. Her heart is damaged, her kidneys are failing but she is hanging in there. Yesterday her blood pressure was in the 226/98 area yet she was able to understand some of what we said and answer in a garbled voice to some question.
I am asking for your prayers that she may pass quickly to go and meet my father who passed 12 years ago.

Re: Prayer request
My Mom faced similar blood pressure problems, but her doctor finally dialed in her blood pressure medication so there is little fluctuation.
She had a "small" heart attack also a couple of months ago and her blood pressure never spiked, so there was no damage to her heart - they only determined the heart attack by a blood analysis for the hormones. She got a new stint and her color and health is back.
Thanks again to all here for their prayers.

Re: Prayer request
Thank you everyone for your thought and prayers. She is resting peacefully but is not yet ready to leave us. My sisters have sat by her bed for 2 nights now and I think and hope they will come and stay at my place tonight both for their well being and I believe for my Mom too. I for some reason feel that she is staying here for their well being. During a brief lucid moment I told Mom to let go and go see Dad that he is waiting for her. She sort of smiled but then dozed off again. I hope and pray that she will soon be seeing him again.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.

Mom passed peacefully tonight with my sisters and myself by her. She is now at rest and with my Dad. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. They were deeply appreciated.
