Dear KKIM Family,
This from Grace…please be in prayer…Please circulate to your prayer groups…..Thank you and PRAISE THE LORD!
Good Morning Dewey,
Hope you and yours are doing well this beautiful Sunday.
We are in Arizona for what was supposed to be a long, peaceful Spring weekend with my mother and brothers, enjoying the gorgeous warm weather. However yesterday, Mom began experiencing sudden chest and upper back pain, pain around her throat, shortness of breath, difficulty swallowing and breathing and a pesky low grade fever.
She was admitted to the Tucson Heart Hospital where they are conducting tests to identify the problem but so far we’re not sure what’s wrong. Her symptoms are not typical cardiac indicators, though they will be conducting a nuclear stress test today. The cat scan conducted last night eliminated a possible pulmonary embolism (thank goodness!) and they’re exploring the possibility of some kind of infection as the cause of the fever.
As of this writing it looks like I’m going to have to bless my daughter and my fiance and send them on to the 8-hr drive back to Albuquerque so they can go back to school and work tomorrow, while I stay and try to keep Mom calm while we explore what could be causing such discomfort and such an odd mix of symptoms.
Please be so kind as to request prayer from our brothers and sisters that the nice Docs at the Heart Hosp here can identify what’s wrong with Mom so she may receive the necessary treatment and recover quickly. Naturally, we’re very worried and mystified as to what could create this kind of reaction.
Dewey, as always, I am grateful for you kindness and your friendship. Your work is blessed and we are all blessed as a result of it.
May God continue to guide the work of your hands.
Love,
Grace Cordova
