Aloha everyone. First of all, let me apologize for not posting yesterday. It was a long and rough day for mom, and we ended up staying at the hospital last night to help her. Although recovery is moving along, the pain medicine that she is taking causes her to have severe hallucinations. This frustrates her and makes her very upset. It is very hard to see mom this way. On top of that, the hospital staff is light on weekends so we all needed to stay with her to make sure she was okay. Aside from these hallucinations, mom seems to be doing fine. She did have another minor surgical procedure this morning to put a stent from her kidney to her bladder. This is common and is needed to propery drain the urine out of the kidney and into the bladder. I haven't spoke to the doctor yet but the nurse left a message saying that mom was doing fine. After 3 hours of sleep, we are getting ready to return to the hospital to see how she's doing.
Mom is a tough person, and we know that she will pull through this. The next few days will be tough so we are again asking for your continued prayers. We are so thankful for all of your thoughts and prayers, and we look forward to seeing you all back home real soon.
As you know, I read all of her email to her daily. Please send your messages to jessiesamfong@gmail.com. You can also post comments here by clicking the "Comments" link right below my post. In closing, we want to thank you all for your kind thoughts and prayers. Mom always talks about her prayer warriors back home. Take care and God bless.

Goodmorning Jessie,
ReplyDeleteActually goodafternoon. I'm hoping your weather there is just as beautiful here, but then again nothing like home. I just wanted to share something spiritual with you, which always helps me, and also to give you strength, and words or encouragement that we can always depend on.
Isaiah 33:24 reads...And no resident will say: " I am sick"
So even though we suffer because of dealings with illnesses, these things are temporary, and there will be a time when we will not be sick at all. So we have that day to look forward to when we will once again have 20 year old bodies! I'm sure looking forward to that!
Take Care,
Lynette
