PLEASE PRAY FOR ALICE'S MOM

Mom and Dad Ames - May 2007

September 22, 2008

by Alice

Alice's Mom, Mary Jane Ames, suffered a brain aneurysm on Sept.18 and is now in ICU and unresponsive.

We would like to ask prayer at this time for our family, as Alice has flown to New Hampshire to be with her parents.

Our specific requests are:

1. That God will be glorified through this situation

2. That He will give wisdom for decisions regarding care for both Mom and Dad, who at 78 has early-stage Alzheimer's

3. That He would allow Mom to wake up soon, either here or in Heaven

4. For Jack and the children, holding down the fort in Florida, and also Alice's sister Lois' husband Chris and their children

There is much to be thankful for also! We praise God for:

1. The wonderful care and help of our families and our church family, especially for Dad Ames

2. That Alice's sister, Lois,  a missionary in Ecuador, just "happened" to be home on furlough and able to be here also.

3. For the excellent care that Mom is receiving

4. An inexpensive hostel where Alice and Lois can stay near the hospital 

We are so thankful for God's peace, knowing that we and our parents are in His care, and the promise that if we ask for wisdom, He will give it.

We have started a blog at www.maryjaneames.blogspot.com to post regular updates on Mom's condition.
