Mary has had a rough few months. She is a COPD patient and about year ago she started having difficulty breathing. She was in the hospital for about 2 weeks. Since then she has slowly gotten worse and her relapses seem to occur more frequent. We have been told she now has CHF (congestive heart failure), COPD (asthma, emphysema, and chronic bronchitis), and kidneys not functioning at 100%. If one of these starts to malfunction it's sets off all of them. She is depressed and thinks people think of her being a hypochondriac. Which she is not, she just has alot of issues and like I said before if one goes wrong they all go wrong. She went to the doctor today, because of difficulty in breathing and the doctor at Georgia Lung treated her hateful and had her crying. He told her she needed to exercise or she was never going to get better, well she is overweight and can't walk very far without being out of breath and she is doing the best she can. Anyway...Scott is with her now and they are trying to find a place to take her. When she was in the hospital last week she got better. But just a couple of days home and she started feeling worse. She did what the doctors have told her to do, but it didn't work. So please pray for her to feel better, that if it is God's will that she will be healed. | |

I will keep Scott's Mom in my prayers! I will never understand why some doctors are so mean to people. There is no cause to talk to anyone and make them cry! I known what it is like to have a heath issue and there are times when even the strongest Christian can get down when your having health problems. We must keep praying for God to work!!

Just a quick update on Mary, we could not convince her to go to the hospital from Wednesday of last week and all this past weekend. The lung doctor on Friday really got her down by the way he treated her. She is having trouble breathing so kept thinking she needed to see her lung doctor. She say a different lung doctor today and he told her it was not her lungs that was causing the problem. So she went to see her heart doctor and he ADMITTED her to Cobb. I am not sure what the game plan is, Scott left a little while ago to go to the hospital. She is a very stubborn woman (just as I am) and the heart doctor told her the time before last when she was in the hospital that the least little problem she had she needed to call him or go to the hospital. See, they gave her a booklet on heart failure and the least little problem is a sign. But to her she thinks people thinks she making mountains from molehills. But anyway, please continue to pray for God's will to be done in her life. Cause you know our prayer is that she will be healed, but I pray that God will touch and her and give her comfort and rest tonight. | |

My mother-n-law, Mary, will have a Cardiac Catheterization in the morning at Cobb. Please continue to pray for her. Also, remember Scott and his dad. | |

Thank you to everyone that has prayed for my mother-n-law. She went through the cardiac catherterization without any problems. They said her heart and her lungs are not the source of her problems right now. They are not the best, but the fluid that is building up around her heart, they think is caused from her kidneys not working 100%. The doctor is having a kidney specialist take a look at her. She might have to have dialysis. Continue to pray for her. | |
