Today, as I write, I am finally able to sit next to my mom! She's a fighter...that's for sure.

The X-rays continue to show improvement, she's eating well, and talking a little more.

We visited with the neurologist a little bit ago just to make sure nothing additional happened while she was on the sedative or from the moments her blood pressure was so low. He believes that she is suffering from a form of delirium. No sign of a stroke or anything so that's great! Her short term memory is not the greatest...but like they keep saying...baby steps.

She has gotten orders to move out of the ICU. They are just waiting on a room to become available.

She's finally resting now...although waking every few minutes coughing...but...that's the best way to get rid of the mucus from the pneumonia.

Thank you Lord for keeping an eye out on her! Please continue to heal her body and mind so that she will be able to have some normalcy again.

Please continue your prayers in letting her get some sleep as she's not gotten much! The sleep will only provide her more strength.

Until later...

Please say a prayer for my mom. She was taken to the hospital early this morning and the verdict is pneumonia. She's currently in the ICU, hopefully to be moved to a regular room by tomorrow as long as she responds well enough to the meds. She had an echocardiogram done on her heart and everything looks good there. The doctors did confirm though that she'll be there through the end of the year. Please pray for her comfort as she currently has an intubation tube in her throat, which she HATES! Thank goodness she knows a little sign language. In advance - thank you for the prayers and good thoughts! I know she'll appreciate them!! Please also say a quick prayer for my dad. He seems to go into Superman mode during times like these and be a strong hero for all of us girls and forgets that he also needs to take care of himself. We love you daddy...just be there for mom...we'll take care of each other. Adding comments from Facebook:
