Dear friends, please keep my mom Isabel in your prayers. After catching my cold last week, I feared she might develop pneumonia as she once did on a previous occasion. Well, today, to the sound of her complaining and insistence that she was okay, I took her to see a doctor and guess what he said? She has pneumonia. He has put her on a strong anti-biotic for the next five days. He said this medication should do the trick (from his mouth to God's ears).
Say a prayer for her if you get a chance. Thank you and God bless you.
Addendum:
My friends, on behalf of myself and my mom, I would like to thank all of you from the bottom of my heart for your prayers and for your thoughts (especially Auntie A).
Mom ate tonight some chicken soup that I made for her and drank plenty of fluids, just as the doctor instructed. She still has the occasional shortness of breath, but I believe this is normal due to her condition. She does have an inhaler to assist her with those episodes (please tell me if I'm wrong in thinking her shortness of breath is, for now, normal). She has an appointment this Thursday with her doctor to re-evaluate her condition. Please continue to keep her in your prayers.
Again, THANK YOU for your kind gestures and for your prayers..

Oh, Tom, I'm sorry I missed this! I hope your mother is feeling better and on the road to recovery.
Prayers for your mother. Hopefully she is feeling a bit better.
Oh, Tom, I am so sorry to hear about your mom! Does she have a nebulizer? My four boys are asthmatic and when they are really struggling they get "better delivery" of the medicine with the neb treatment instead of the inhaler. Just a thought...
Hope she is stronger today!
Sending prayers your way!
