My mom is been in the hospital for almost 3 weeks. It's supposed to be just in and out within a week. She had a blockage in her intestine and they had to cut it out and attach the ends. She was sick for about 4 to 5 weeks before they even admitted her to the hospital and by that time she had a lot of infection so it was a major surgery by then. She's in Germany and I'm in Las Vegas. I call her every other day and she tells me everything is gonna be OK. I feel so helpless not being able to comfort her and be with her. She's supposed to be here the end of September and I'm crossing my fingers she be all healed by then. Do you ever had a situation were you wish you could do more but you really can't?

I'm so sorry to hear that hun :( I kinda know how it feels but you gotta stay optimistic. I hope everything turns out okay. I heard raw food and/or water/juice fasting can help heal all kinds of disease. Just find a naturopathic doctor. ~Love, Anna

All day everyday in my book. My life has been that way hoping and praying everyday since 1999. My daughter has to do a lot for me. I wishthat I can improve for her. So I can carry my weight around the house. She is only 16 years old. One day I hope that I could do better for her sake.

DOn't feel bad, be courageous and trust god!! There are situations when we stood helpless. We want to do but we can't. It happens. So in a situation like this, we had no other option left other than prayers. That's all my friend! God shows us a way in this situations, just have faith in him and imagine him from your heart.
