My mom did much better this week. She still didn't feel good and she still is exhausted but it wasn't as bad as last time. This time she was smarter about what she ate and she also kept herself pretty medicated during her bad days. She looks a lot better today but she is only able to stay up a couple hours and then she sleeps a couple hours. My favorite quote from her this week was "I feel like Rapunzel but with no hair." So don't worry even though she is sick and weak she still has the same personality and humor. :)
Last time she had the stomach problems over the weekend so please be praying those don't start again. Hopefully she will be able to post on here by monday. Thanks for all your cards, emails, and posts. I know they mean a lot to her and they are a great encouragement.

Alyssa,
ReplyDeleteThanks again for making time to update those of us who want to stay in touch but don't want to "bug". Will continue to pray; a tough journey but this gives all of us the opportunity to see first hand how God answers our prayers and to see His grace to you all as you walk this path.
This is a time where "sharing in the fellowship of His sufferings" takes on a sweeter meaning than other times.
Yours along the Way
Lisa took the words out of my mouth! Thank you so much Alyssa for keeping us updated! I wish I could do more than pray but 1600 miles is a long way away. Love you all! I'm so proud of you for all that you are doing to help out your mom!
ReplyDeletePraying for you Bonnie!

Love you! We are praying for you and think about you every day. Here is hoping that this one isn't as rough. We miss you! Love to all, Cactus6
ReplyDeleteThe Gunns are keeping Bonnie and all of you in prayer. This all sounds so familiar! Someday it will all be a memory and seem unreal....hang in there!

ReplyDeleteThanks for thinking of me and my family as you are going through all this. My mom is holding up okay but has been having health issues too.
Keep smiling.
