Please Pray

My 91-year-old grandma has had several heart attacks throughout the last week. She is doing, for the most part, OK, but has "episodes" of bad chest pains and there's really not much that can be done. She mostly has these in the night hours and they can give her a Nitro patch, but it takes 30 min to kick in and then once it's on, it lowers her blood pressure too much, so it needs to be removed. It's really a vicious cycle. My mom and dad drove to Omaha yesterday to be with here. Mom and Aunt Linda are with Grandma at all times now. At moments you wouldn't know much is wrong and at others they are just pleading with God to release her from this pain and suffering. I am asking for you to pray for Grandma to be comfortable and for God to go ahead and call her home. She's ready. Pray also for the strength and comfort of my mom and Aunt as this is emotional and physically draining and stressful on them. I will keep you updated on grandma's situation as it changes. Thank you!
