Transport

This word has so many meanings to me.  Right now I just want someone to transport my whole family to Minnesota so we can be by Mary's side.  I also wish someone would just transport me to an easier time when this darn cancer didn't ravage those I love!

Literally, as I write, Mary is waiting for transport to Mercy hospital.  She is severely dehydrated and has not eaten in multiple days.  They will be putting her on an IV and although not thrilled to be going back to the hospital she said she'll go anywhere if it will make her feel better.  She sounded weak when we spoke as she has thrown up twice.  I pray that the transport comes soon so they can start fluids.

I will update the blog again as soon as she is at the hospital and I get word of how she is doing!

Where ever you are and whatever you're doing please stop and take a moment to say some prayers.

  1. Mary --Sending prayers from California and as I do, I'm thinking of all the people whose lives you brighten with a story, a connection, a shirt-sleeved relationship you've figured out. You ARE related to all of us and I join with others all over who are praying for you and for your beautiful immediate family and all those that you are inspiring. Love & Prayers, Ann C.

  3. Mary--praying for some peace from the pain, praying for your strength to return to fight this terrible cancer, praying that you soon will be able to eat, praying for you to get better! My aunt Helen passed away yesterday so I will be flying home tonight to plan the funeral. I will be home for two weeks and am hoping to stop by and visit you. Hang in there, Mary! Let the prayers give you strength.
