Let's hope all our prayers are a blessing to her, as well. I am praying for her many times each day and night -- and have activated several others to do likewise. Bless her kind heart, Life has sure not been kind to her lately. Praying for another one of the miracles that happen every day! Guru ----------------------------------- crzynana2001 14.06.2009, 10:41 ----------------------------------- Thank you all for the prayers........ as of 6:30 A.M. est today, marlene was off the breathing tube, conscious and alert and asking for popscicles. They gave her the popscicle and she kept down every bite. Her blood pressure is at 90 and climbing, (a good thing) and it is beginning to look as if we are going ot get the miracle we have been praying for. Now, I am praying that she does not have a relapse. She still has pneumonia in her lungs, but it looks as if the antibiotics are beginning to do their job. The need for prayers still continues............... I will be back with more as soon as I learn something else.

She had a great life and is now with my boy, Bob. As her daughter said to me, "mom passed away and then the the storm broke with thunder and lightning, She is up there raising hell already" This I can believe, and she is taking care of all the CCers who preceded her, it is just her nature. ----------------------------------- Bower50 20.06.2009, 20:32 ----------------------------------- Marlene,you were a dear friend to all of us and will be sadly missed.We didn't know you for long but you affected everyone in a positive way. Helen Keller said, "What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us." Take comfort in your memories, for they will indeed be a part of you forever. Good Bye Marlene til we play again at that big poker table inside the pearly gates. ----------------------------------- valeria 21.06.2009, 03:22 ----------------------------------- I was holding onto the last string of hope but I guess God wanted her more. She will be sincerly missed, but I like to think she is in a better place with no pain and no worries.
