My mother is having heart surgery tomorrow. I’m not so much worried she won’t survive the surgery, as the healing process afterwards. I’m at a crossroad, not knowing what will happen tomorrow. I put my faith in God and confidence in the surgeon’s hands. I know with God’s help, He can get her through this ordeal. I have seen God work in mysterious ways. He changed me several years ago as I encountered health issues. That was a turning point in my life.
Talking to my mother over the phone this evening, I reassured her that all would be okay. Having my own fears, particularly with her advanced age and weakened heart, I tried not to show my concerns. I told her I love her, the one thing she does need to hear. It has to be difficult for her. I could sense her pain over the phone. In retrospect, I hope this surgery prolongs my mother’s life and she can live out the rest of her days happy and healthy. Thanks for all the prayers and please keep them coming.
My heart goes out to you and although I don’t know you or your mom, as a daughter and mother myself I can offer my prayers to you, your mom and all your family. Michelle

Thank you, Xena. It really didn’t get to me until today. I think I had a harder time getting through it than Mom. She got through surgery. She is resting now, but in pain from the surgery itself. Thanks for writing. I will try to keep updates daily.
