My family is in need of prayers!   I called my mother to tell her about a mulberry tree I found here on the farm and she told me she was in the hospital with her sister.  Aunt Diane had spent the night at a friends house and fell down a flight of stairs......and ended up with a broken neck.  Now my mom and Diane have not gotten along for quite a few years now because Diane moved down here to GA. and took my grandmother in when she got alzhiemers to take care of her. It was found out she was taking grandma's money and then she wouldn't let the other kids come see her. The others actually had to take Diane to court to get "visitation" of thier own mother.  Well needless to say Diane and her siblings have been "fueding" since then.

So when Diane's children came and told mom about the accident she went to the hospital to make her peace with her. She did get to talk to her but didn't get any reaction from her, except one tear out of one eye. I don't think she is responsive at all, she is on life support. Her family is having to make the decision about wheather to keep her on support or turn it off. The doctors think if it is turned off she will most likely pass, but if she lives she would probably  be a vegetable. She had stopped breathing 3 times and the third time it was 15 minutes before they got her back, so she was without oxagen for at least 15 minutes at one time.   I told mom to tell my cousins I will be praying for them and thier mom, and to give them each a hug from me. They were there for me when my daddy died and I will be there for them in thier time of need.  So the first prayer request if for my aunt Diane, for GODS will to be done, wheather he decides it's her time or not, and for strenght for her family in this time of need.

When I hung up with mom I called my oldest brother to tell him and he sounded funny and I asked him what was wrong......he tells me he is in the hospital because he got dizzy, passed out and when he came to he started throwing up blood. So we need prayers for him to get better and find out what it is causing it.

UPDATE: Just got a call from my sister, they are keeping my brother in the hospital overnight for tests, although they are leaning towards a bleeding ulcer. And she said that my mom had told my sis-in-law that the cousins had decided to go ahead and take my aunt off life support. I haven't heard how she is doing though.

So if everyone would send prayers our way for my aunt, her family and my brother it would be much appriciated.

Thanks to all and GOD BLESS!
