Hey everyone...I just wanted to ask for your prayers for my mom. This afternoon she called her doctor because she had been experiencing shortness of breath and a tightness in her chest for a few days now. Her doctor wasn't in town, but the nurse advised her to go to the emergency room so that they could run tests on her. She's there now (Flagler) and will stay overnight, hopefully coming home tomorrow. They've already done an EKG, chest x-ray and bloodwork on her; so far, those have come back with good results. However, the doctor still wants to do more bloodwork and hopefully a stress test tomorrow to make sure that everything is ok. Mom is doing fine; she is ill as a hornet that she has to stay there, but we all decided that it would be in her best interest to rule everything out, if nothing more than for her peace of mind. I think maybe God wanted to slow her down a bit and maybe teach her to take some time for herself, because Mom's whole world revolves around caring for others, and while that's great, she still can't neglect herself. Just tonight, she was talking about how she still had to cut the corn off the cob for Sunday...Mom! You're in the freaking hospital, who cares about the corn! So please pray for her, pray that everything will be fine and that she will learn to be a little bit selfish, as bad as that sounds. We'll keep everyone updated and love to everyone!
