flatline and to be airlifted to Peidmont Hosp. In Atlanta. It has been a very hard year for this wonderful 80 yr. old and now she is back in the hospital awaiting surgery for a pace-maker. At 11:00 last night Gail was called to the hospital. Seems they have not been giving her Lasix that she has to have and her lungs are now filled with fluid and she is supposed to have her surgery tomorrow(Tuesday). They were afraid that she would most likely have pneumonia because of her lungs last night so that will pospone the surgery. She is very fragile and not doing well. Of course the family is in turmoil and Gail's heart is breaking. She is so afraid that Mom will not be strong enough to get through all of this. We could all use your prayers for this tiny frail wonderful lady to become strong enough to get through the surgery and have a pace-maker that she is in dire need of at this time. She has been in the hospital for almost a week and they have been dragging their feet about putting in the pace-maker and now the staff has put her in critical condition with another problem. Miss Syble has just about given up because of the length of time it has taken for the Drs, to decide to let her have a pace-maker. The first of the year when she flat lined the hospital in Newnan, Ga installed a pace-maker and when they flew her into Atlanta, the Piedmont Drs. decided to take it out.
If some of the long time members remember, just a few days after she got home from that ordeal was when my son had his Heart Attack at 42. It has been a very hard year on all of us to find ourselves back to the original health problems of a very sweet and dear member of our family. I have not been able to go to the hospital to see her because I have spent the week with the flu and she is only 3 minutes from me. The fever has finally gone and I have my regular Monday Dr. appointment at 1:00 this afternoon so I do plan to go and see her today. I could not risk giving her the flu along with all else that is going on with her. I am tired and weak and can barely get around from just a case of the flu so I can not imagine what this frail lady is going through after almost a year of this major heart issue within her! I would appreciate if all of our prayer warriors will come through for Gail's Mom. Our family is positive proof that prayers do make a difference! Thank all of you now and I will keep you posted. Love, Linda
I hope you and your family have Happy Holidays! Hugs, Linda
