Welp, I did not sleep much nor did I sleep very well, but that is to be expected. I left my mom after 8p last night. She was in good spirits and grateful the nurse let her eat going into her MRI. By the time I got home and she had her MRI, she was eating again! #SheWasGettingItInAsLongAsSheCould #EatingUntilMidnight
Now, it is close to 6a and I am anxiously awaiting my video chat from my brother to let me know they are about to take her down to surgery prep. Her surgery is scheduled for 715a. I have THE MOST anxiety at the moment. I ate my usual yogurt parfait for breakfast, but I am wondering if it will make its way back up. The jury is still out on that one!
As I type, my mother sent me a text message with her smiling face saying, “Ready for a Good Day!” Now how can you not be put in a better mood when the one going in has found her strength? Well, I will take a bite of her high and get myself in the right frame of mind.
Dear Lord,
I come to you with an anxious heart. Forgive me, for I know You have already provided the roadmap for the day which does not include my worry or anxiety. Heal my heart; make me whole.
Heavenly Father, be with my mom and the neurosurgery team. Give them clarity, peace, and steady hands as they remove Arnold from my mom. Let there be no complications and all favorable pathology results. I ask this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ!
Amen and #Amen
