NO PICTURES TODAY JUST A HEARTFELT PLEA

for all the prayers that I can possibly get for John.

I had to call an ambulance for him at 4 this morning. He's in ICU,sedated and on a ventilator. I've lost count of how many times he's been in the hospital with pnuemonia,but this is the first time he's had to be put on a ventilator. He always said that he didn't want that. There's also a tube in his nose that his ICU nurse just explained to me on the phone is how they're giving him nourishment and all his other meds.

I'm lost. I can't go up there without a lot of help cause I can't drive anymore and can't walk without my Zoom Zoom. I know he wouldn't want me to,because I'm too ill,but I don't think I want to see him like that. Mary Jo's husband took her up there and she said that she just burst into tears when she saw him. She asked his nurse to please have the Drs. call me cause I can't get up there,she made a note of it.

If God doesn't give you more than you can handle,then when does it end???? We've been through everything and more.

So I'm kindly asking for as many prayers as I can from people for John as I can get. That's all that can be done now.

Thank You Very much

  1. Of course Sherry - hoping John has a speedy recovery - it's really tough when things like this happen over and over (the past few years have been like this for my father also) and each time takes a little more out of th patient and ourselves. John is getting the care he needs so that's a good thing. Take care.
