    Please Pray

    Well, you know that saying when it rains it pours....my life has been a flood. My mother went into the hospital on Dec 31. She has an aortic aneurysm that is 6cm large. She has not been stable enough for the surgery that she needs to keep her alive. She does not think she's going to make it. So, I am leaving for NY tomorrow. Please keep her in your prayers. I love my Optiboard family and thank you for being there for me even when I'm not around.

    I have a handful of "internet friends" that I pray for each night. I'll add you and your mom to my list!

    My Father in-law just had the exact same condition right before Christmas. He is now back home and resting comfortably. It is possible to make it through this! I will be in prayer for you and your family.

    Here's hoping for a successful treatment.

    I'll put you in there with my brother and my nephew, who are also having some severe problems.

    My mom went home Monday and I came home yesterday. She was released from ICU and went home the same day. She's doing much better. She's going to need home health care for the next couple of weeks but after that she should be fine. Thank you so much for all your prayers and well wishes!!! Ya'll are wonderful! :bbg::cheers::bbg:
