This morning I sit as tears drip into my coffee. I love Fridays, I especially love rainy day Fridays but today is not one of those kinda days.
I was out of town on business for a couple of days. I returned to find that my mother has not been doing well. She has been struggling with her breathing and after many visits to her pulmonary doctor, things seem to be getting worse. My father and I took her over to the ER where needless to say they admitted her. Many test have been run to eliminate the obvious. I still don't know anymore than I did yesterday other than she is resting and breathing better.
It saddens me to see the fear in her eyes as my Dads welt up with tears. I never felt this kind of pain ~ the pain of not knowing. I know she's in good hands as she holds the Lord close in her heart.
I will be by soon for visits as it keeps my mind on a steadier track. Thank you all for you visits and kind words.
Also, Thank you Lisa over at "Please don't take life for granted" for your thoughtfulness and the "Look How Cool Blog Award". I am suppose to present this award to others - but I am going to present it to all. I think everyone has what they feel is ONE COOL BLOG!
Take care of you and yours always ~ A prayer for mom is greatly appreciated ~ Thank you!
