OT: Prayer request; info, may not be posting much

Thank you Mel. Grandma told me not to worry, just take care of myself. Hard to do when you know you might not see them again. Though she's home again, hopefully under watchful eyes.

Thank you Sabrina. Seems like it wasn't her time to go, even if my Aunt tried for it to be. She's much better, thanks for the prayers.

Many thanks Selena

Thank you Rach

Thank you so much Sandy. The many prayers for Grandma seemed to have made her stronger. That and some food. She's at home now with a team to take care of her and keep watch now.

Thank you Chrissy, prayers were very welcome, and comforting

Many thanks Judy. *hugs back* We sure needed the prayers

Thanks Amy, still not feeling perky but Grandma is!

Thank you Mel. no, that didn't sound harsh, no one wants a loved one to suffer. Seems her problem was from being malnurished. She is now at home and having a watchful eye kept on her. Thank you for the prayers.

Thank you Cathy. Everyone's prayers helped. Seemed she just needed some TLC. You know how hard it is when you are getting information for 4 different peopel, it's hard to piece together the truth. She was given blood 3 times and for now is better, was just mal nurished. I get more testes on Thursday, hopefully that will tell them what's wrong.

Thanks Deb! I think I sent you another email update, if not I'll send it later. Many thanks for all the prayers

Shannon, thank you for the well wishes. Grandma is better. I think once they take out my gallbladder I'll feel alot better. But you know htat's not how managed care is. They can't just go in and remove. Noooo, they must run a bizzillion tests, all which show normal. heehee, think the pain killers are strting to kick in. I'll setp oof my soap box now before I get going to far....

Thank you Tabitha, the prayers really helped Grandma. She says she feels soo much better, could just be all the blood they've given her!

Kenda, I have had that test and it isn't as bad as I thought it would be. I have gallbladder problems off and on...I have found my best 'care' during these bouts is to go strictly liquid diet. Jello,water,clear broth etc. The pain is awful. I will keep you in my thoughts.

Hugs, Sabrina in Kentucky

Kenda, does your Grandma qualify for assisted living or nursing home care? So many times,no matter how much we love them,our dear aging loved ones cannot be cared for at home the way they NEED to be. My dear Mother fought the idea until it became clear even to her, that she needed someone to be with her at all times . We all felt so much more relieved to know she was having good meals every day and that her medications were being given correctly and on time. Having her family close by and visiting daily assured that she was being well cared for. When any long term care facility sees how much a family is involved..they are more involved as well. Keeping all of you in my prayers.

Hugs, Sabrina in Kentucky

You're very welcome.

Happy to hear that she is doing good. Sorry about your Aunt.

Our oldest DS has had this test also. He hugged me last night and told me it would be a breeze! Keep in mind less than 12 hours after he had the test his gallbladder was removed. lol I just wish they'd remove the darn thing and be done with it. Thank you for the kind thoughts Sabrina

Thank you Tabitha. It's a shame and hard to believe two very kind and sweet people could produce a cold and uncaring person such as my aunt. I tried to call today and my aunt wouldn't let me talk to her.....DH told me to go ahead and call social services. but I'll give her until the end of the week.....
