Norm asks for prayer for his friends Mike and Marty who live in Ohio.
Mike writes: Marty is hanging on. She seems to be going down hill fast and it's hard for me to accept. We have been together for 53 years and I can't even think of a day without her. I actually love her more everyday. I didn't think it possible but I do.
She wants to live so much. Just now her Grandchildren are of an age that she really enjoys being with them and she wants to do things old people do. She is terribly confined do to the small amount of oxygen we can take with us. Two tanks will last 3 or 4 hours. Sometimes we go through that much taking her to the doctors. It's a 30 min trip to and then home, plus we usually have a 30 min to 60 min wait and her time with the nurses and doctor and our 3 hours are up.
She usually starts out OK but by time diner is over she is exhausted. She is having great difficulty in breathing now even with 10 liters of oxygen per minute. Yesterday she was on 13 liters per min all day and she still complained she couldn't get her breath.
It's so damn hard watching the love of my life fade away. Sometimes I know I'm depressed but I work hard at not being so. I have to stay strong and productive for her.
I still have my faith Norm. No matter what I see or what the Doctors say I know God is almighty and can heal her anytime he wants to and if He does not then it is His well that she goes to Heaven first. One of has to be first so I guess it's all up to Him.
