Just when I thought things were calming down some, life has thrown me another worrisome issue. My mother, who had 6 strokes in July, was at a doctor's appt for her hand late Friday. She had a scan of her hand, then cortisone shot for severe arthritis, when she received a call from her neurologist. She had an MRI of her brain about a week ago. The neuro consulted with another top neuro in RI & they wanted her to go right to RI Hospital to get a brain perfusion scan because they think she MAY have a brain tumor. She's there now, & it's killing me that I'm not with her, but she asked me to go to her place to care for her cats. She has also been caring for her next door neighbor's cat until she gets back from a short vacation later this morning. My mom wanted to leave the hospital to go take care of the cats and go back late this morning, but no way was I letting that happen. The docs advised against it also. My man & I took a $50 ride share to get here. Friday night (really early Saturday morning), guess it's really $. My mom JUST got called in for the perfusion scan. The hospital is so busy, and short-handed. I'm not going to let worry consume me, but I am very concerned. I won't be sleeping though. How could I? Earlier, my hunny dropped his phone down one of the walls of the attic. Our landlord let the roof go into total disrepair and my bedroom ceiling took a beating during the nor'easter from the slap dash "patch" job, so it's soaked; paint started peeling off, and I'm just praying it doesn't cave in because it's so old and there are big holes squirrels made in the roof. My hunny was finally able to get his phone out of the wall with some ingenuity. So thankful, but it took hours. It feels like we're being hit from every angle. I have a wall calendar that quite literally FLEW off the wall earlier, when there was no breeze and no one was near it. I've been praying my heart out, surrounding us all with the White Light, and trying to stay as positive as possible. My mom is pretty tough. She's still healing from the broken coccyx she got from the many falls she took during the strokes. Her brain took a huge hit, I've noticed she's having trouble recalling some things, but she was released from all her therapy because she was doing so well. She even stopped using her walker and was cleared to drive. I would do anything for my brother to still be here with us, I could use his help big time. 😢 I don't know what I'd do without my hunny. I am so grateful for him, he is my Earth angel. I'm once again asking for prayers from all the prayer warriors. My mom's name is Bernadette, and she NEEDS prayers, healing energy, good vibes, positive thoughts, all of it. Please. She's all I have left of my immediate family. I will update once I know what's going on. Thank you in advance for your prayers and healing energy. You are all priceless. I love you all. 🤍🙏🏻
