Praise the Lord for answered prayer. Thank you for praying! My mom rallied this morning (Friday). She knew who I was when I walked in, and was glad to see me. We laughed. We talked. We had a most blessed time together for about 3 hours. She ate a really good lunch & here's the big news: she fed herself!
She began to lose strength, her face drawing up more and her eyes fading more for several hours, and then she slept sound for 2 hours. When she woke up it was dinner time, and she wasn't interested in eating and seemed to be fading more.
It was obvious to the nurses that the Wednesday TIA event really damaged her system, so this morning they were totally amazed at her abrupt turnaround. But, this evening the damage to her system was obvious.
I don’t know what tomorrow will bring. It could be her last day or she could linger a while longer . . . . . It could be hours, days or weeks. Only God knows the appointed time of her departure. If she doesn't make it another day or I am not there when she dies, I am content. God gave me 3 glorious hours with her today that HE preserved just for me. He heard my prayer and yours and answered.
