Default Another prayer request for my mom

Please keep my Mom in your prayers. Many of you know she had brain surgery in February and was bouncing back and had returned to work.

This afternoon, my mom apparently passed out. She laid down for a nap because she wasn't feeling well, her eyes were twitching and she had a headache. When she woke up she was on the floor (she fell off the couch) and had a bladder accident. She slept through the fall and accident. She refused to go to the ER saying she was fine. She promised she would call the doctor tomorrow if she wasn't feeling better.

Please pray with us. My mom is a stubborn woman. She thinks if she feels OK, she is OK. She has also mentioned she is done with doctors. We fear she will pass out at the wheel or at home and no one will be there to help her. She wont go live with my sister or anyone.

I am beside myself being so far away. My sister was in turmoil not knowing if she should call 911 or not. Plus my mom made her promise not to tell the rest of us kids and that was so hard for her. She finally broke down tonight and told me. I had a long talk with mom about that and her health. I am not sure she is listening.

I'm praying too, Sandy. What a scary thing.

I just spoke with my mom and she says she is OK, but she sounded off. She also said she didn't sleep well last night. I almost had her talked into calling the neuro surgeon but then she changed her mind. My sister is on her way over there now and going to try to get her to call the doctor. Thanks for all your prayers, please keep them coming. I have a real bad feeling about this.

Ok, I have called my brothers and they are going to try to get her to see the doctor as well. She is stubborn for sure. I tried to call her surgeon but they wouldn't let me talk to the nurse. I told them I needed to speak with someone now but they said I would have to leave a message. What is wrong with customer service these days? I know by the time they call it will be 6pm and my mom will have driven to work by then. They never call back until after the office closes. Frustrating.
