  • PRAYER REQUEST

    Maybe we will enjoy our second day at Gwen's tomorrow.....

    Right now I have a prayer request that to me seems urgent.  Pop, (my husband) has not been feeling good for some time.  He's starting to sleep all the time, and when he gets up from a nap, sometime he don't know if it is today, tomorrow, or yesterday.  He is too stubborn (he's a man) to go to the doctor but when you have 9 children on your trail sooner or later they will come up with a good reason to send you to the doctor.

    The other night when he was talking to our son Mart, Pop mentioned that a tooth had been bothering him. Pop wondered if that could be the problem why he don't feel good. Mart assured him that a bad tooth can cause all kinds of problems.  Soooo.......

    This morning Pop went to a walk in dental clinic.  They wouldn't pull his tooth but told him to go to another clinic, Pop went.......... they took his blood pressure..........  It was 225/100.

    The doctor said he wanted to get the blood pressure down before he looked for other problems.

    By now you know my prayer request... Please pray for us and at this time and mostly for Pop. 

    I can joke about not knowing what to do with Pop sometimes, but I'd rather wonder what to do with him, than do without him. 

    I glad I have a God who knows all about it and I'm also glad I can trust in Him to supply our needs.

  • God moves in a mysterious way, to get him to the doctor.  I'll be calling you tonight. Love you both. Library is about to close.

  • will keep you in my prayers...

  • I'm sorry your "Pop" is not feeling well and will be praying for both of you.  I'm glad they found out about his high blood pressure.  That can be so dangerous.  Love you.

  • Be assured I'm praying for you both.

  • praying that all goes well. Hugs

  • Virginia, I'm praying for both you and Pops.  LU Juanita

  • You both are in my prayers, Virginia. Please keep us posted as to how his blood pressure is over the next while. Mine was high a number of weeks ago after I had injured my upper arm muscle but the next week it was fine. I have been told that there are medications that will get the blood pressure down if it remains high. Hopefully, the doctors will have the right answers. Above all, I believe, with you, that God will provide what is needed.

    Love,
