Sorry i've not been here lately, things have been rather busy for us.

The beginning of the month,Momma lost her balance and fell between the couch and wall. She bumped her head,and chipped her wrist bone. She is in a cast,and has been having trouble,getting the pain to quite.

Next day,Dad drove Mom to Blood clinic, got her walker out for her,and then went to catch the elevator for her. He fell on the way to the elevator, sudden dizzyness. His blood sugars were good,and his blood pressure was good. He's been fighting a respiritory bug,and his Immune system is not good right now after the Chemo'/rad' treatments. Mom said he was fighting some chest pain earlier in the week as well.

Mom is awfully weary as well.and her red cell count has sunk again. It should be about 38,on a good day she has a 32 count.lately its been really low,lke 26 to 28. This week along w/ coninuing EPO shots[Procrit] they have been giving her daily Iron IV treatments. Then they'll be testing her Coumadin levels again [For Atriol Fibrilation Heart problem]. The Wegeners disease/Granulomatosis [Lupus related] has caused her so many problems.

Mom is early 70's and Dad mid 70s in age.Pastorlove and I,plan to go to Washington State to see them,as soon as his classes are done in early May[he has to get CNA liscensing for work]. OF course, depending on when he can get vacation time. Hopefully soon. My folks have 9 grandchildren,the youngets being age 12,and I know they'd love to see them all graduate high school. Two of the Grandkiddoes are married now,and another is engaged.

I'd be greatful if y'all would continue to agree for my parents health to get better.It is difficult because we live almost 20 hours away. My brother is not in the best of health, tho heis only about 2 and 1/2 hours from them. And the other sibling,has several health issues,and stay w/ Mom and Dad. Perhaps I should say we all need the healing touch of our Lord and Creator. Thank You with His Love,Just Silverlion!!!

Thank You His Grace,and all others who join in the prayers!!!

I know our Lord and Creator has my family in His care,and I'd love to have a chance to see them again. it 'd be so wonderful if they were able to get healthier.

One of my siblings,has serious issues., We pray for them,alot,but there is no communication [Frown]

from them. They stay w/ my folks,and to avoid problems,we prolly will meet my folks elsewhere, when we do get to see them. Perhaps the Lord will perform a relationship miracle too. PastorLove and I,would love to see peace restored in my family!!! And I know,my parents are saddened by it all as well.

We've had to give the situation to the Lord,with much prayer, and doing all that we knew to do,and could find scripturally to do to bring healing and peace. I just leave it w/ him,there is still a wish to see my family whole tho'!!! [Smile]

I gotta close for now,but wanted to let fols know what's been up! Love in Jesus Silverlion!!! {if I ever type Wolfnbear,its my 'Gumbo Family' name from another site].
