Hey Everyone. I just want to thank you all for your prayers. Here is an update on what's going on.

My Grandmother had her knee surgery this morning. It went great. She's fine and back home resting already. On the deal with her rapid weight loss the doctor's still don't know anything. She should get her blood test results back Monday or Tuesday. If she's able to walk from her surgery by Monday or Tues then she'll go into the hospital for more tests. Bless her heart. She told me the other day she's so scared it's something terribly wrong that's causing her weight loss. Please, continue praying it's nothing serious and if it is please pray she can overcome it.

My Mom went back to the doctor the other day. Her doctor had no idea what those sores are on her face so he took 5 viles of her blood. She has a very bad staff infection and yes the places on her face are staff infection. It is spreading. Her doctor put her on the highest powered antibiotic he could without putting her in the hospital. He wanted to put her in the hospital but she talked him out of it. ugh Personally I think he should have put her in anyway. He said if she gets worse over the weekend he wlll or if she's not better by Monday then she'll be put in the hospital. Continue praying for her as well...please.

I am still sick. I'm a little better but not much. Most of you know I have bad asthma. I am having to switch asthma specialists b/c the one I'm seeing now is a quack. She gives me medicines that I have told her I've taken before and they don't work. Anyway, I don't feel bad at all. I'm just exhausted b/c my cough gets 100 times worse at night when I lay down. So, I can't rest. Sometimes I pray that I'll collapse just so I can get put in the hospital so I can rest.

That's all for my update. Thanks everyone for your prayers. Prayer is a powerful thing! I love you all!!

I'm happy your grandmother had such good results on the knee surgery, and I'll be praying about the weight loss, and for your Mom's blood tests. My son has asthma, so I know how hard it is to try to sleep. You're in my prayers, too.

Prayers for your family and you. Tonight it has been airless here and it really has affected dad's asthma.

He should make an appointment at the asthma clinic at his doctor's surgery maybe his medication needs changing.

I am praying in the Spirit for all of you. I also have asthma and know avout the nights. It helps me to have a small fan 6lowing in the room, not pointed at my head, and not a6le to make the air too cold.
