Believe your mom when she says it hurts.
Don't believe your mom when she says it doesn't hurt.

Prayer request for my injured Mom.
My 84 yr old Mom fell last night while away traveling with my youngest sister and injured (broke) her hip.
After driving hours back home in the middle of the night they got to the ER around 1:30AM. The xrays show the hip is badly broken. She has been admitted to the hospital, is on pain meds and awaiting surgery. Surgery will be either today or tomorrow - not sure when yet - waiting on the surgeon.
Please pray for a full recovery and for surgery to go great - NO problems. Would really appreciate it so much!!! Thank you all in advance. It's been a long night!
Thank you.
The concern is also the anesthesia. She as well as my sisters and I and some of my Moms sisters all have problems waking up from it. The last time my Mom had surgery many, many years ago it was very frightening. They had 3 anesthesiologists working on her (have no idea if this is normal) with the surgeons and they had a serious problem getting her to wake up.
I’m away working today. My family lives down south and I in the north (ugh) so this is hard to deal with anyway.
More than anything, I pray for her comfort. This is exactly how I lost my 81 year old Canadian mum, and I know it can be so terrible - and terribly unfair for her to go through this!!
Prayers all goes well.
Prayers up!
She must have been in agony on the long drive home...Prayers up for mom!
Prayers here.

God bless you Faith, and your mum. May her surgery be fully successful, and may she fully recover quickly. Also, we all ask that this ‘time of testing’ work to increase her faith, and your faith in our merciful and generous Creator.
Thank you!
God is good.
My sister, my Mom and I all have great faith in Him. He is in control. We love and trust Him.
My prayers to you and your family for your mom’s quick recovery.
Prayers on the way.
My prayers for your mother’s recovery, and for your family’s serenity.
I will be praying for your mom.
Prayers for your mom for successful surgery and quick recovery. God bless you and your family
Prayers sent to her and all our loved ones.
So sorry to hear this Faith. Prayers for your mom as well as you and all your family. 🩷
Will certainly pray for your dear mother.
I hope she has the recovery that my SIL had last fall.
This is her second broken hip and she has also cracked her pelvis in a different incident.
She only uses a hiking stick and the only pain she admits is in her knees. She is 86.
Prayers up!
