My mom is having surgery tomorrow, Wednesday the 20th. She has some blockage in her heart. The doctors will determine the best course of action once they are in surgery. This may mean outpatient if blasted or an overnight stay if stints are needed. Her surgery begins at 8amEST. Please pray for the medical team as well. Thank you!
Those checking in today, I will update as I have news. I know my mom cherishes many of you, her online community. Thanks for praying.
UPDATE:
Prayers have been answered! Glory to God! At about 8:15 Mom was wheeled into surgery, at 8:45 the doctor was already complete and going over the results. They did not need to put her under. She was alert during the whole procedure. Which ended up being a heart catheter, no balloon, no stints! During the procedure the doctor asked my mom, "So you have people praying for you?" To which she replied yes. He said his job goes a whole lot easier when people are praying. Mom told him people were not only praying for her but for the whole room, which brightened the hearts of all, one even gave an "Amen sister." Mom also went on to share with him that it was not just local prayer but national and international prayer as well. Which we are very thankful for. As the doctor completed he looked at her, not finding the damage that they had anticipated and told her, "Looks like your prayers have been answered." How awesome is that? Mom will be home later this afternoon. Those wishing to share a prayer, praise or warm wishes may do so in the comments of the post.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR PRAYERS!!! God bless.

Lord, right now, MTF's mom is having surgery. Lord, I pray that you will guide the doctors hands. That you will give them wisdom. And I pray that you will heal her heart completely.
Bring peace into the waiting room. And if family has gathered together, may the time waiting be fun and full of good conversations!
Lord, I pray for quick healing, for MTF's mom. May she be able to do more then the doctors expected. May she have new energy.
