i just left the i.c.u. unit.
i know the power of life and death is on my tongue.. but i feel our lord is calling home my mother..
as i was leaving, she stopped me and asked me to get on my prayer lines.. i promised i would.
she has battled emphazema for 10 years now. and since feb of this month has really went down hill.
i have lost count how many times she has been on a ventalater since feb.
i had taken a couple days off of seeing her, as they said they was releasing her back to the nursing home the next day ( from the last day i saw her).. the last day i noticed how there was nothing to her hands, and they were "old people" hands... i was so shocked when i went in this morning. she had swollen so much, her hands that a couple days ago were down to the bone, was now 3-4 times what they had been, like someone inflated her with air.
when she first went to the nursing home... april or may.. i asked her if she was in good standing with God, she said she knew where she was going ... she never talked religeon.. but over the last few years she wouldnt miss the gaithers and such.. i pray she had actually ask forgiveness, as she is a wonderful lady... even though she didnt attend church as i was growing up, she NEVER minded if i went..
she never got drunk a day in her life, if she knew someone was going hungry ( even a stranger) she would take them food.. she acted a lot more like jesus then quite a few christians i know do.
im sorry this got so long, this just hurts so bad, she raised me alone, and was more of a mother to my son ( im a single dad) then HIS mother ever thought about being... i'm missing her so much already and she hasnt even went home yet.
please pray she is in good standing with our lord, and if not, he provides her the one last opportunity..
please pray when she passes, God bestows his mercy and peace upon her.
i thank you
Tony
