Please pray for pax_et_bonum's Aunt Peggy.
She’s like a mother to me.
She had a heart attack and is in icu.
Doctor gives her a 50-50 chance of survival.
I'm very upset. Not ready to lose her.
Thanks for the update. Continued prayers.
Dear pax, prayers continuing....
Wonderful news! We’ll keep praying for a full recovery.
Great news! Thanks for the update!
Glory to God! She is a child of God which makes her our sister and a joint heir of Jesus Christ. Thanks for the update. Great way to start the day.
God bless.
Amen!
Update:
Aunt Peggy’s heart attack was very bad.
A stent was put into one of her arteries the when she arrived at the hospital the evening of her heart attack.
The family was told that the attack was a bad one and that her chances of survival were 50-50.
She’s very strong and she survived. Thank you all very, very much for your prayers.
Now for the extended sobering facts.
Because of the severe damage to her Aunt Peggy’s heart, her case has been referred to a heart transplant team at a different hospital.
She’s 78 so a transplant isn’t an option but a heart pump is.
Her new doctor told her and us that with a heart pump she could have ten or twelve more years. Without a heart pump she has six months, max, so she has begun the process of testing to see if she qualifies for heart pump surgery.
Once again she’s facing 50-50 odds because that’s what her new doctor says that her chances are of qualifying for heart pump surgery.
Thank you all for your prayers. Your prayers and support mean so much more than you know.
I’d like to ask your continued prayers for Aunt Peggy.
Sorry it’s taken so long to update. I got home on Monday and have been unpacking, doing laundry, resting, and repacking for my inevitable trip back to Texas which could happen at any time if there’s a problem.
Hopefully I’ll be going back in a couple of weeks to be with Aunt Peggy for heart pump surgery.
I appreciate your prayers and support so much and eventually will be thanking each of you dear FRiends individually. You are wonderful people and I wish I could thank you in person. :-)
Even more, I wish y’all could meet my Aunt Peggy. She’s a real sweetheart and you’d love her very much. She’s that person who has the big wrap-around porch with (no kidding!) at least thirty fold-up chairs stacked along the porch’s back wall because so many people stop by so often.
Aunt Peggy is beloved by many and now she has her first great granddaughter - four months old - who she adores and who looks just like her.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, and I’m praying for all of you!

Thanks for the update. Prayers and peace to all your family and your aunt. I know these are difficult decisions and difficult passages to go through. Just know He is with you all always.
Prayers up.
I have faith God is helping the doctors and staff to find and pursue the best path for her and so she can improve and heal. And I prayed you have increased strength to cope.
Still putting up prayers for Aunt P.

Believing with you for the favor Aunt Peggy needs to get that heart pump, wisdom for the doctors and staff and speedy recovery.
Prayers on the way.
Thank you for the update. Prayers for Aunt Peggy and the family and all involved.
Keeping Aunt Peggy, you and loved ones in prayer.
Thanks for your detailed update.
I think it’s very important that
people hear how their prayers are
answered and that God wants us to know
how much he loves us.
Prayers Continue...
God Bless

You’re Aunt Peggy sounds like a very dear person, and I will continue to pray for her, for you, and the whole family. I hope she’s back out on that big porch of hers real soon, sharing her goodness with all who come to see her.
Aunt Peggy sounds like the kind of person we need a lot more of. I wish her a complete recovery and many more years to spread her delight to others.
