Mom Update

I talked to Mom last night after she had her two Dr. appointments.  She went to the podiatrist and he again told her that she needs to be off of her feet... wheelchair all the way! (Not easy to do for her!)  He is also referring her to a Wound Dr. for the sore on the bottom of her foot.  Apparently it is not healing very quickly and this could be bad news.  The Pod. Dr. has mentioned the possibility of her losing her foot and/or leg.  Let's hope and pray this does not happen!  


The heart Dr. is referring her to a lung Dr. in order to try and improve her breathing as well as to help make her heart stronger.  

Those of us that live nearby (myself included) need to try harder to make it by to see and help her as much as we can!  For those of you that are not so close I know that a call, letter, prayers, and thoughts would be much appreciated by Mom.  

It is really easy to get caught up in our own daily routines and crazy lives, but we need to remember that Mom is all by herself now and really needs our love and support! I know we all miss Dad so much... can you imagine how much Mom must miss him???

Love and miss you all!
