Thank you all for your prayers, they are so much appreciated.
I have very limited internet time at the moment, this is the first time I've gotten to a computer but I will update here as I can.
Mum had the stroke Friday morning which affected her right side. Sunday afternoon she opened her eyes and recognised me. She smiles at us and seems to understand what we are saying but is unable to talk back yet. She will nod/shake her head when we talk to her or ask questions. The doctor's put in a feeding tube yesterday as her swallow is still weak, but they believe that will only be for a few days till she is stronger. It has affected her whole right side. We are taking things day by day with lots of prayer.
PS: Jason is home with our four girls being 'mum and dad, washer person and cook!' in between work!
I'm off to the hospital again shortly. I will check in again when I can. Thankyou again all for you love and prayers
I am praying for you and your mother -- that your health will remain strong enough for you to see to her needs, and that her condition will improve quickly.
Blessings,
Diane
Hi Lianne,
So sorry to read this about your Mum - and also about you and your health problems. Take care of yourself too, it's often the Mums who don't get looked after, as we are too busy looking after everyone else.
Love and blessings Chris
P.S. I'll add you and your family to my prayer list.
Thankyou Chris. I'm so much better now. I had a small heart attack in January, then did my shoulder in a couple of months back. All at the same time as Jason starting out in his ministry.. We sure don't do things by halves in this family do we!
Jasanne, I am very sorry to hear about your mom. Glad also that you are getting better Prayers going up for both your mum & you. Keep the faith for in Him all things are possible. *4 U Hugs
You and your Mom have ben added to my prayers. I am so sorry that you have barely gotten back to a functioning state and now have your mom to worry about. You take care and don't overwork yourself and have a relapse.
I have already lifted your mom up to our Lord praying she will be able to recover from her stroke. Also praying for you and your family as you walk with her through this very difficult time. May you feel Gods arms around you and lean on Him each second of the day. When we feel so out of control, we know God is in control. In Christ, Judy ***4U
Will keep your mom Pauline in prayer. Remember God is in control and on He know the plans he has for you and your mom. Hugs, Terre
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your mother! Kim
OH my dear - I will be praying for both you and your Mum Pauline. I am thankful for your health at this time - had you still been ill - you might not have been able to go to her - in her time of need - this will be a hard time ahead for each of you - she is lucky that she has you to assist in her recovery.
Thankyou Shirlene, still keeping up prayers this end for you and Rick too. Isn't it amazing the strength we can draw from prayer, and knowing we are being prayed for.
I pray you will have your mom for many years to come.
I will be praying for you Mom and a complete recovery and I pray your health will continue to improve....Janet
You and your mum are in my prayers. I pray she will recover completely and quickly.
You and your mom will be in my prayers. Try to be positive and keep your faith. The Lord has given doctors and researchers the power to help people that have suffered a stroke. There have been great advancements in treating stroke patients.
