Need your prayers
Hey guys,
Coming to you all begging for your thoughts and prayers. I havent been around much, b/c after getting out of the hospital, I was weak and tired and didnt feel like posting much.
Friday morning, I got up, felt better than I had in a long time, got up to go cook some breakfast, and turned to say something to Mike and I couldnt talk. It was like garble, he couldnt understand me at all. Scared me to death, but we tried to get over it, then that afternoon, I lost the feeling in most of the right side of my body, lost the vision in my right eye for a while, and then lost the feeling in the skin on my right side of my face and arm. The right leg is dragging a little bit, and the right eye wants to stay closed all the time. Soooooooo, we went to the ER that evening, and they did blood work, urine tests and a CT scan. All came back normal and they told me to follow up w/my family prac. Soooooooo.... this morning we went to him, and he has ordered 4 tests for next week. MRI, MRA, EEG, and Carotid Doppler, plus more blood work. His idea was mini strokes, and we think that may be what happened the day I fell off my mule, had one that time, then had a speech episode happen later going down the road.
All this said to say, Please pray for Mike and I as we are pretty scared. I have been told to live my normal life, and just be careful. We are scared, but trying to cope, but I knew you guys would be there for me. Im not wanting to eat or drink like Im supposed to, Im really struggling there, but Im coping.
Hope everyone else is doing ok, I'll keep ya all posted on this, I may not post much, I just dont seem to have the energy!!
Hugs,
Rhonda D.

I knew you were having a ruff time but had no idea it was this bad. Now look, I can't have you and Susan falling apart on me at the same time!
You are "Tuff as Nails Nonna" Let's get these test over with and find out what is going on so we can tackle the problem!
You and Mike both are on my prayer list and know I will be in prayer for you two as well as the Dr's. PM me if you need anything.
Mucho Huggs to you from one Nonna to another!
