Default Need some love & prayers

Hi Yalls.

My godfather, Uncle E, has gone into the hospital. For some reason, he's been home sick for the last 2 weeks with a cold /flu. And worse, eating food = gas. Drinking fluids = gas. Breathing = gas.

And worse - the ER people FIGURED OUT that he's been having a heart attack for the last 10 days!!!!!!!!!!

I've known these people since I was a munchkin. I have a memory of sitting in Uncle E's lap in a '68 Vette going 80 mph down a street in Portland OR. (I was 2 and I wanted to go faster.)

These people mean so much to me. Since I left AK I've pretty much cut off my bio parents (trust me, reasons), and Antie D and Uncle E have stepped up and helped me out mentally, being a family when I need one.

So I'm going to ask for prayers, happy thoughts, love and snuggles for these people. I don't want anything worse to happen to Uncle E. He needs to be there, Antie doesn't know how to function alone....

God, fix this...

They're in my thoughts, I sure hope it all works out.

I can offer no words that can comfort you right now, as I am no writer but I want you to know I'm rooting for them, and you.

Crazylegs.

Here's hoping everything comes out well for all three of you, cutenoob! It sucks when people are in hospital, and all you can do is wait.

Will chat via IM later, so feel free to talk my ear off about it then.

Well, i wanted to say thanks!

Due to everyone's love and hugs, Uncle E is out of hospital. He's back home, recuperating from some heart surgery, and is now grounded. (he hates it). He wants to go back to work but Antie D said, "No, Not until you exercise and build stamina again."

Uncle's chompin at the bit, trying to go out and play...and I bet as soon as he does he'll deflate like a hot balloon...

Oh, and he's now been ordered to stop smoking, eat better and exercise. So I'll keep on his case of that. I've bought some really good cereal for him (Kashi brand) and he likes it...gonna send a care package.

Thanks for your help everyone!
