I admit this is the first time I have been on this section of tadgang and have not always been the most devout christian but I and my family are watching my mother cling to life due to an infection that started out as a gall bladder problem that escalated to pancreatitus. She has been on support for 2 weeks now and is putting up a fight.It has been very hard on my dad as they have been married 43 yrs and he has to watch her go through this. Everyone knows that their folks will pass but my mother is only 62 and it seems to young, she has always been very active and quite healthy and I thought she would be around into her 80s. At this point I dont know what else to do and am looking for all the help we can get, please help by praying and I will try to reafirm my faith and continue to be positive.

There may be some hope, mother seems to be making little improvements. I appreciate all prayers sent and godbless, Don.
Prayers continue for strength, surrender to His Will and for His Will to be reinstate your MOm to true health.
First of all, thanks for your prayers, and it seems my mother continues to improve or at least hold her own. Today she is having her gall bladder removed and the Doc will abride any bad infected areas if there are any remaining. The infection she has is 75% fatal and the doctors are impressed that she is doing this well, 8 days ago they wanted us to discontinue support and let her go.I am blown away by the support of people on here and across the U.S. all the way to Alaska who have sent prayers and turned this thing into nothing short of a miricle. I would like to say thank you to all for your support as we continue to ask for prayers to see this to the end.Regards,Don.
PRAISE GOD!!! Continuing to pray for God's best in Jesus.
Prayers for Mom from our home tonight.
Prayers of thanksgiving, but lets not forget WHO made her recovery so far, possible. Our prayers are but the start. His power is the Glory, not us.
May God's will continue and we continue to pray for strength and His will to be done.
Keep the Son in your eyes!
My mom continues to fight and seems to be heading in the right direction to the astonishment of her doctors. This is a lady who has always been strong willed and determined and I know this and prayer have made the difference in her beating the statistics so far. Marsha is my mothers name and your continued support will be appreciated.
DWT, I didn't pay attention to this section of TG until a couple of months ago. But since I did I have come to know the sincerity of those that walk here and commit to prayer. Prayers to your Mom from me......Ray......
Update on my mom:
My mom has been moved from ICU to select care which is between icu and general admission. She continues to slowly improve and on saturday was off her breathing machine for 9 hrs breathing on her own. She has been setting in a chair reading gardening magazines for as long as she can, she is a little weak. Doctors say at least a couple more weeks here and then maybe a couple in a nursing home. This is still along way from the doctors saying 3weeks ago we should consider discontinuing life support. In the beginning the doctor gave her a less than 5 percent chance of beating this infection and do to the power of prayer and gods hearing shes kind of a little miracle. My mother is only 4' 11'' and I told her that the natives in alaska were already carving totems to tell her story but nedded more info to make use of the whole tree. Thanks and god bless.
that's pretty funny right there DWT about the totem...when she's better, she's gonna smack you!
What a blessed day it'll be when she's strong enough to take a wooden spoon to yer behind like when you were a kid! :)
Thanks for sharing the encouraging news about her progress. May those great reports keep coming and your 4'11" mom sit high on the totem and declare His glory and honor for her recovery.
Keep the Son in your eyes!
My mom continues on her recovery, although still somewhat weak form 37 days in ICU she is now setting for awhile each day in a chair and even took a few steps today. Last night was her first night off the vetilator and she has now gone over 24 hrs breathing on her own. Her wound from the 2 abridments to get rid of the necretizing fascitius is healing quite well. She still has some fluid in one lung but seems to be dealing with it well and her breathing is getting better. All in all she is extreamly good for someone the doctor said had a less than 5% chance of surviving.Thanks to all for prayers and thoughts and to god for her healing, Don.

amen for God's intervention. Keep the good news coming. Whatever be God's will, may he give her, you and your family peace adn strength for her recovery to continue.
Sorry I havnt posted an update in a long while but after this event Ive had some serious catching up to do with my buisness. My mother came home on oct 15th from select care. She was using a walker and eventually a cane and continues to improve in strength and stamina. On nov 10th she went back to the hospitol as she had pneumonia. She came home nov 15th. She is doing much better and the doctors are still scratching their heads that she even survived in the first place and they have told her she can go back to work! She says on the fourth of jan. she is going back to work, she works at the courthouse as the deputy reg of deeds and likes her job. This is a testament to the power of prayer and in my eyes a miracle. Thanks, Don.
Yeah! Praise God! Give her a couple of hugs and a thank you for her example on not letting it get her down.
Thank you, Don for the 'catch-up'. It makes my heart sing to read your words. Please give your Mom a big Tradgang hug for us all...
Praise God for miracles in everyday lives.
Keep the Son in your eyes!
