I dont normally ask for Prayers..........

But I sure could use a BOATLOAD and then some this week.....My,my how your life can change in an instant. My DH and I were discussing how 2007 had really sucked for us since the first of the year - his mother's death - and all that entails - life was finally getting some semblance of normalcy back when we went on vacation for a week to Indy Labor Day - we were talking Sunday afternoon how we just wished 2007 could end and we could start frest in 2008 - SUNDAY, this past Sunday - Monday afternoon, my son calls me to come get Dad from work and take him to the hospital - he was sick - It took only a minute for me to look at him to know, but  18 hours for me to get the DEFINITIVE ANSWER - He had a stroke - I was o****il I head that answer with no "it may be", "we think" - And IS is what I needed to hear.....and I lost it...........Now, I realize that I MUST get myself together for the long haul.........perhaps we were lucky - it could have been much worse - it appears that he has all his faculties BUT the verbalization skills - he can get out some words, but some are garbled........Hes only 53 with no history of HBP or heart disease - his only vice WAS smoking and the neuro said that would not have caused this stroke - now he is on a mission to find the culprit. Anyway, life goes on hold and life goes on. All the prayers and then some would be most appreciated. Thanks Margie
