We Need Your Prayers
Our son just called us from Texas to tell us our daughter in law has been taken to the hospital by ambulance after passing out at work last night.
They now suspect an aneurysm in the brain since there apparently was some blood in her spinal fluid. This is a nightmare all over again, as I underwent the same tests when I was 27 years old, but my spinal fluid was clear. I also know it can mean a brain tumor, and I am asking anyone who reads this to please say a prayer for Lucy, that whatever it is will be healed by the Great Physician.
I thank all of you and will keep you updated.
Update: 8:17 am EDT I just spoke to Lucy. She said when she got to the hospital her blood pressure was 175 over something; she has numbness on the right side of her face and down her right arm. The blood indicates a slow bleed somewhere in her brain and she has already had a CT scan and is waiting for an MRI machine to free up so they can check to see whether she had a stroke or if there is something else going on in there.
Update 2, 12:15 PM EDT I just heard the most beautiful words from our son: “Mom, it’s basically nothing. She had what they called a complicated migraine and sinus infection.”
Thanks and praises to our wonderful Lord and Savior! Thanks to all who have responded with prayer. God has heard it and spared her for us once again.

I am so sorry that Lucy is having more problems. We are actually in Amarillo, Texas right now but I just called home and the medics were there, taking Mother to the hospital E.R. by ambulance. Not sure what is happening but we will most likely head home early in the morning. Had planned to be gone for 5 weeks but family is more important than anything!!! We will certainly pray for Lucy’s quick and full recovery. Please keep us posted.
