Remember I told you a few posts back that I've become scared to answer the phone? It seems like every other time a family member calls me it isn't good news. Well...I should have listened to my own advice...
I got a call on Saturday morning from my dad. My Grandad (Nana's husband) was taken to the hospital for a possible stroke. After 3 days and countless tests, the determined that he has a hole in his heart that cased a TIA. We were all shocked. This man, at 73 is the picture of health. He seems to be doing well. They have put him on blood thinners to hopefully prevent this from happening again.
Then this morning my sister called. I asked you all to pray for her marriage in my previous post. Her husband found out yesterday that he is more than likely losing his job. He will know for sure on Monday. He is the sole provider for my sister and their 3 children (ages 7,3, and 7 months). They live paycheck to paycheck as it is and barely make it as it is. Even by collecting unemployment, there will be no way they can afford even the basics like food and rent. She said her husband feels worthless. He feels like he can't take care of his family and is an absolute mess. My heart is breaking for them.
Any prayers you can spare for them would be so appreciated!
