My sweet mother

My wonderful mother has been having quite a time of things lately. Apparently she is collecting sundry medical problems and diagnoses, which now include, in addition to a chronic neuromuscular condition:

• A heart attack which, thank God, did minimal damage to her heart
• Asthma which needs to be brought under control
• Pneumonia
• Diabetes (diagnosed yesterday morning when her fasting blood sugar was over 325)
• A blockage in a major artery in her heart

She is scheduled for an angiogram on Tuesday morning. Thanks again to all of you who are praying. My mother is in good spirits, and God is using her to encourage her hospital roommates and to bring good cheer and her usual amusing wit to everyone she encounters.
