rodheadlee Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 Mom is 84 and very active, she drives 180 miles a week, takes care of 2 places, works her 5 acres with her farmer friend. She injured herself with a chainsaw and then she was fine. But she has been passing out due to lack of nutrition and dehydration and fatigue, as far as we can tell. Tom the farmer took her to the ER Sunday and they can find nothing wrong with her after a battery of tests. They released her to an assisted living facility because I couldn't get down there fast enough. Now they are going to keep her for a few days, My wife stayed down to take care of her but I had to come back north to work and care for the cats. We couldn't find one of them when we raced out Sunday to go down. Dad can't come home to his home county until October 16th. He is finishing up 8 years for something he did not do. It's really been hard on Mom. She introduced me to Jesus Christ from birth but she has never been baptised.She is a strong, wonderful lady and she just needs a year or so with Dad home, fooling around on their property and in the woodshop before she goes home to the Lord. (what she really wants is to go out in the motorhome she has worked so hard to pay for and keep ready for 8 years until Dad gets home). Could you please pray for her to have some good health for another year or two? She needs a well deserved vacation with her mate. Thank you. 3

I'll pray that she and your dad have a great road trip come October! Never met her and already like her! 1
rpn Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 Maybe we'd be smarter to pray that she'll remember to eat and drink enough. (What a sweet tribute to your mom, BTW.)
