Please pray for my Mom's sister - possible stroke

Howdy,

My folks are at the ER right now with my Aunt (Mom's older sister). She's in her mid 80's. Just saw her at our July 4th cookout a few days ago and she was fine. Mom called her today and she was REALLY confused and having trouble carrying on a conversation. Docs think she may have had a stroke but at this time we don't know how bad. Please pray that she will be calm and at peace in what has to be a frightening experience, that the Docs can help her and her body can heal. Also pray for my Mom. Their Mom had a massive stroke that left her senile for many years but otherwise healthy. Both of them have long feared the same fate and so there is a special anxiety about stroke issues for them.

Lies are fragile. They require constant attentiveness to keep them alive. The exposure of a single truth can rip through an ocean of lies, evaporating it instantly. - Brandon Smith

If you want government to intervene domestically, you’re a liberal. If you want government to intervene overseas, you’re a conservative. If you want government to intervene everywhere, you’re a moderate. If you don’t want government to intervene anywhere, you’re an extremist. — Joe Sobran

It is no crime to be ignorant of economics, which is, after all, a specialized discipline and one that most people consider to be a ‘dismal science.' But it is totally irresponsible to have a loud and vociferous opinion on economic subjects while remaining in this state of ignorance. – Murray N. Rothbard

When one possessed of the Truth suffers from a heavy heart he is susceptible to a more dangerous affliction — the craving for power to eradicate error, to cause Truth to triumph by force. - Frank Chodorov

Where politicians flourish, long history has harshly taught us, people and their liberty wither. Where the state is god and the "public interest" worshipped, individual man will be found bleeding upon the altar. - Karl Hess

The accepted wisdom is that without the state, society would collapse into lawlessness and crime. In fact, lawlessness and crime define the very nature of the state and the society organized by it. - Bionic Mosquito

But the myth of the rule of law does more than render the people submissive to state authority; it also turns them into the state's accomplices in the exercise of its power. For people who would ordinarily consider it a great evil to deprive individuals of their rights or oppress politically powerless minority groups will respond with patriotic fervor when these same actions are described as upholding the rule of law. - John Hasnas

Your family has my prayers. Hopefully it was caught soon enough for a t-PA to be utilized.

Re: Please pray for my Mom's sister - possible stroke

The symptoms described could be several things, so here's hoping it is something simple and reversible.

Re: Please pray for my Mom's sister - possible stroke

Scott, my mom's side of the family has a history of strokes so I understand the fear of this particular affliction.

Elaine and I will pray for you and your family.

Re: Please pray for my Mom's sister - possible stroke

They took her down to Houston to get checked out. So far, they are saying NO stroke and her heart seems okay. They did find a pretty bad urinary infection. Doc said that at her age that kind of infection could cause the symptoms she was experiencing. So she's on antibiotics and we'll keep an eye on her. She came home yesterday. Thanks for the prayers!

I believe your aunt will be restored into the perfect and divine health that was bought and paid for her by our Lord and savior Jesus Christ. This is the most fervent and effectual prayer I know.

Re: Please pray for my Mom's sister - possible stroke

She's doing much better.

I think she's finally reaching the point where her mental faculties may finally be slipping. It is hard on her because she has always prided herself on being independent and able to take care of her self. She will probably be moving into assisted living at a really nice place here in town where she already lives (non assisted). She would just be moving to a smaller apartment than what she has now at the same place. So hopefully that will help since she won't be moving to a new environment which would only add to her confusion.
