Please keep my hubby's grandma in your thoughts and prayers

My hubby's 80+ year old grandmother is in the hospital in Kentucky. Her kidneys are shuting down and she is on Dialysis 3x a week. Every time she has a treatment they take off 16 lbs of fluid. Both legs below the knee has very little or no circulation. She has a serious staph infection on her right leg. They are going to have a family meeting with the doc's tomorrow to see if they need to amputate her leg or not. Cuz with no circulation they are afraid that gangrene will set in. Her legs are already turning purpleish red. Me and the hubby are going to KY tomorrow to visit with her for a few days.

My condolences and my prayers are with her as well as you and your family at this difficult time.

Best Wishes,
DJ

I will say a prayer for her tonight, Mig. Please continue to be strong for her. She needs your love and caring.

I'll say a prayer for your husband's grandmother...and for you and your family. Here's hoping everything turns out for the best.

Dear Mig, Please hang in there. I know how difficult it is to see someone you must love very much suffer with ill health. Of course we will keep her in our prayers, and you, too. God bless.

Mig, tell Col. Slade that we are all praying for his grandmother. Stay strong Mig. Col Slade and his grandma need your strong support. Give grandma my best.

Mig,

I will definitely keep her in my thoughts & prayers. It's times like this, when we feel so helpless, that just being with family can be consoling.

Take care

UPDATE ON GRANDMA
I just got back from KY visiting with her a few minutes ago and wanted to give you and update.

First of all on behalf of my husbands family I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the well wishes and prayers. I feel so blessed to be a part of this BB family.

Mamaw as we call her came home from the hospital on the 1st. There is nothing else that can be done for her. They decided not to amputate her right leg cuz she is to weak right now and she wouldn't make it through the surgery anyways. So the doc wants to continue with the dialysis for about a month (if she can last that long)and then stop and turn her over to hospice. She is bedfast now cuz she cannot stand on her legs cuz she is in a incredible amout of pain. Mamaw is on antibio's. for the staph infection. The condition she is in she is perky and will talk to you when she is not sleeping. She sleeps most of the day now.

Mig, I apologise for being tardy with my response, but I am glad she's home and you have my thoughts and prayers for her continued health.

Oops, apologies for double post!

Well Miggy, at least Grandma Slade is in the comfort of home for now. It's so unfair that she has to suffer this way at this point in her life. I hope that she is made to be as comfortable as possible and that God is merciful on her in her battle right now.

I'll keep her in my prayers.


Don Cardi

Thanks for the update Mig. Hopefully being in the comfort of her own home and with family will be helpful. I too wish the best for her.

So sorry to hear about this latest turn, but it is best she is at home among familiar surroundings and family. I have, unfortunately, had a number of dealings with hospice, and they are a great organization....they will keep her comfortable and free of pain, and they are also wonderful with the families.

We all have to go eventually, and at least she will have the comfort of being at home and awareness that she is loved.

I am truly saddened to hear the latest report. But at least, as others have already said, she is with her family for now. That is so very important.

Signor V.

Mig,
As much as we would like our loved ones to live forever, they can't. The only thing that we can wish for them is that God gives them a merciful and painless death. Hope that she has a easy and restful time of it.

Mig

Your husband's grandmother and your family are in my thoughts & prayers. May God be with you during this difficult time.

New update:

We recieved word today that Ray's Mamaw recieved her last dialysis treatment today. The dialysis is what was keeping her alive. Now since she won't be having treatments anymore it is just a matter of days now. Please keep Mamaw and the family in your thoughts and prayers.

I'm so sorry, Mig. I said a prayer for you and your family. Take care.

My sincerest condolences Mig. May God be with your entire family in this this time of hardship.

I just recieved word that Mamaw is in a coma now and she has a 103 temp from the gangreen(SP) in her legs. They said that she is also making gurgaling noices. That is probably coming from the congestive heart failure.Hospice said it is just a matter of a couple days now or even hours. I am so glad I was able to see her this past weekend. I am going to KY tomorrow with my sis in law so she won't have to drive by herself.

I offer you my sincerest condolences, Mig. I will continue to keep you and yours in my prayers.

God bless you and your family, Mig.

She is in my thoughts and prayers, and as you can see from the outpouring here ebveryone else's. She will be blessed to be surrounded by her loved ones in her final hours.

I will pray for her, for you and your family, Mig. My thoughts are with you.

Mig,

I am praying for her, you, and your family.

A loving, caring family is a true blessing.

Signor V.

My thoughts and prayers for peace and comfort for you and yours.

So sorry to hear that, Mig, although if she's suffering, maybe it is best. The Babe family will be thinking of you. God bless.

I can simply echo what my other BB members have said, I send my condolences and blessing to your family in this time of hardship.

I'm gonna be off the BB for a few days. I just got the call from Kentucky that Mamaw passed away. Please keep Ray and his mom and the rest of the family in your prayers.

Sorry to hear of your family's loss, Mig.

Take care of yourself...I'll be thinking of you over the next few days & look forward to your return to the BB.

You are all in my thoughts.

I'm so sorry to hear this Mig. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Mig, I am so sorry to hear this news. Please keep in mind that Grandma Slade is no longer suffering and is in a much better place now, without any pain.

Lori joins me in sending you and Ray our sympathies. We're both very sorry to hear of your loss.

Mig, my sincere condolences. I'm very sorry to hear about your loss. My thoughts and prayers go with you.

I'm sorry, Mig. I hope the warm memories of her that you and your family have will replace your grief in the days to come.

I'm so very sorry, Mig. There's nothing in the world worse than losing someone you love.

Please take comfort in knowing that she is in the arms of the greatest caretaker there is. She's in good hands.

I will continue to pray for you and your husband, as well as the rest of your family during this difficult time.

I think I speak for everybody when I say we're all here for you.

God bless you and yours, and may your husband's grandmother rest in peace.

My prayers are with you & your family!
