Prayers Needed

Recommended Posts

The 16 year old boy we have semi-adopted was just here. His mom had a heart attack last night right in front of him. It's apparently a really bad one. She had complained about pain in her right shoulder for a couple of months but said the doctor thought it was hiatial hernia. I had a fear that it was atypical symptoms. She didn't want to hear my thoughts on it because she saw me as a threat.

We've told him he can stay here that he will always have a home with us. We are available to give him rides to and from the hospital. We may even end up taking care of his niece and nephew as he isn't old enough to be their guardian. We all need prayers. He said he can't stand to see her all blue in bed like that. I remember when my dad looked that way and I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

She just died about 3am our time. I was sure it was going to happen when I heard she was blue. I knew that meant that she had lost a lot of heart muscle. I have no idea what to do. I am just going to take it a day at a time and hope I can make the right decisions. The first battle will be with the court. He was released into her custody, so in a way he is in violation of that since she is dead. I am feeling inadequate.
