A Women's RV Forum run by Women RVer's!

One of my Mom's best friends - her neighbor during her pregnancy with me and during my first year of life - someone I've stayed in contact with all my life - including the years since my Mom died - has had a stroke. Right now they think she'll have a total recovery - but that's not guaranted, especially given her age. The stroke came from a blood clot in her brain, so she's on meds to hopefully keep that from happening again. Please, if you coudl, would you add Maurine to your prayers and thoughts - and all of her family, too.

Thanks

Yep I will keep Maurine in my thought and prayers for a speedy recovery and bless the doctors to help her.

thank you for sharing, Beth. I'll keep her lifted.

Beth, of course your friend is in my prayers.....They do wonders with stroke meds. these days....You are also in my prayers cause she sounds like a 2nd Mom to you...

absolutely!
Prayers and a candle for Maureen and you too as I can see she is like a second mom
to you.

All you ever have to do is ask! Prayers going out for both of you!

Thanks all. The doctors are pleased with her progress so far. Looks like she'll go home tomorrow - where one of her daughters will go to help her, also. Her speech is better today - and if that keeps improving we'll all be thrilled. They aren't sure how well she's going to be with the computer yet, so I'm going to get a card and send her a snail mail today - wow, haven't done that in a long time Her youngest daughter that contacted me and I figured out it's possibly been 30 years since she (daughter) and I have seen each other. Amazing how time flies - I've seen Maurine and the other 2 still living kids, but not Pam. Hopefully will rectify that one of these days - specially since I have an rv that's willing to travel.

And, yes, in many ways Maurine is like a 2nd Mom, but I think I always thought of her more as a friend - not sure why - but it was a friendship that's part of my life from day one. Not too many of those.

I'm sending good healing thoughts to her and you as well! Hoping she has a speedy recovery.

Beth,....sending strong thoughts to Maurine,... and all best wishes for a full recovery.

I will keep your 2nd mom in my prayers.

Strokes are so scary. I know that I really wish someone (cognizant) had been around when my Dad had his. He may not have ended up with so much damage. But his wife was pretty out of it by then with her altzimers and so it was quite a few hours before my brother went over and discovered that Dad had had a stroke. Thank the stars that your friend's was caught early and they were able to limit the damage. I'll continue to keep her and her family and you in my prayers.

Glad to hear your friend is better today. My best to both of you......

I too will be praying for Maurine. (((((Hugs))))) to you too.
