Prayers are need for family member

Post by annie oakley »

Hi All, My sister, my only sister called to tell me that she had been treated in the ER for kidney stones last week...which led to doctor appts. test, and more test etc. Some how they discovered two spots on one lung. One has gown alot in a week. This is a lady with Parkinsons and MS, and she now has an appt with a thorasic (probably spelled wron) surgeon. Scares the hell out of me....she is scared also. This sister of mine has never smoked, drank one glass of wine at her wedding when she was 18 (now 67), led a good life and now this. I'm not asking why...just need prayers for her. Her name is Roberta. And she is my friend as well as my Sister. Thanks Love Oma
May I be more compassionate and loving than yeterday*and be able to spot the idiots in advance

So sorry to hear about Roberta, Oma. She has certainly had a rocky road in life & it is heart breaking that she is having to endure even more. I will keep her in my thoughts & prayers.

Love

Liz

Oma,

We are praying for Roberta, you and all family and friends.

My father is a grief & crisis counselor, among other things, and his advice to me in your situation with your sister is to listen to her, and talk about what she want's to talk about. Let her lead your conversations. She may just need you to listen right now.

Thinking about you.

Love,
Joanna
