Prayer request....

Please pray for my mother-in-law. We found out today that she has had a heart attack and is currently undergoing tests to see what the extent of it is. She has had many health problems in the past and this one just really frightens me. I took the afternoon off from work to be with my husband and his family. They don't know much right now but she needs all the prayers she can get. If I remember, I will keep you posted when I know more on her condition.

I will pray! Did she go to the hospital because she was having a heart attack or did she have a very mild one and find out about it through tests? Either way I hope she is rest comfortably.

This is what my father-in-law told us last night. They were having breakfast and he was cleaning up and she said she was hungry and he said that they had just eaten. Then she said that her chest hurts and the pain was heading up towards her throat. He was like Oh no, I know what that sounds like. He called the ambulance and they came hooked her up to some machine and said that she is having a heart attack. They took her to the hospital where she continued to have them. They transferred her to another hospital that has a better heart facility and they ran tests. She is in ICU now for a few days and then to a regualar room. From the sound of it there might be some muscle damamge. That is all we know right now.

Thank you everyone. MIL passed away Friday morning. She had seemed to be getting better but Friday took a turn for the worse and they couldn't resucitate her. We are all doing fine. Some rather spend time with co-workers than family (sorry had to vent)(long story). I just can't believe she is gone. Vanessa is upset that she couldn't see grandma and still is asking to go see grandma. I don't know what to tell her and explain what had happened. But thank you for the prayers. The family really appreciates it.
