Hi guys,
I've seen people post prayer requests here from time to time and it's time I make one myself. I share a house with my grandparents who are in their 80s and about 2 and a half weeks ago my grandmother was admitting to the hospital for pneumonia, but non-viral/bacterial, it's something to do with her body retaining water/fluid when it shouldn't. Since then they got the majority of that out and moved her from the general hospital to a smaller, more specialized one. However, we just received a call that she's been moved to ICU there and was requiring additional blood and asked us if they had the go ahead to do CPR if needed (since she's elderly, and it could risk breaking the ribs, you know how that goes). Over the last couple of days or so, she's not been eating much and has been getting pretty sick to her stomach a lot.
It seems she's not doing too great, so I wanted to ask for prayers for her. Thank you in advance.
Edit: Nurse called and said what's going on is that her temperature dropped and that she has a blood infection and they're giving her antibiotics. They're also trying to scan for internal bleeding. However, she is aware and knows information like where she is, but she's very tired.
Edit 2: She’s still in rough shape, but they’re doing what they can. I think they’re still trying to stop internal bleeding, and there were also blood clots in her arm where they had stuck her with needles and such for other things she had to be hooked up to, which may have broke some veins. Maybe the situation is slightly better by now, but I’m not exactly sure. I’ll have to wait to hear from other family visiting or see when I go to visit next.
May our gracious and compassionate God watch out over your grandmother!
Remember, she is never alone. The angels hover near her.
“Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, my God, till I declare your power to the next generation, your mighty acts to all who are to come.” (Psalm 71:18 NIV)
Amen.
Amen.
Praying, we just went through something similar. Managed to get himself of a handful of medications, (doctors sent him home, no use taking all these, saying he is going to die) and he improved.
I pray The Lord will have continued mercy upon her. He has been with her this long, after all. I pray He comforts her and you.
Prayers going up now! 🙏🤍
When can she be released? She may not be eating due to depression and being away from home. Is she normally in good health?
The place she's at now, which she moved to a few days ago, said they generally have a 25 minimum day stay. After that she will need to be moved to a rehab center to help her walking again. She's never used a cane or a walker before. But after this, there's no telling how long they'll keep her if she's getting worse.
I'm praying you can get her out asap. Each day she's in bed takes 2 to recover. Try to move her legs when you go visit her to exercise the muscles. 🤍🙏
Thank you for caring enough for your grandmother that you would ask for prayers. Dear God of compassion, we ask for your care and protection for this beautiful woman and her dear grandchild. Bring her home safely where she can feel her family's love and can regain her strength. Amen.
Amen!
Amen!
Prayers on the way fren.

A most special relationship you have. May God protect her, and make her well.
Can you get her any ivermectin? 2-12mg a day two days. It's worth a try.
God bless you and your family always. You have a place in my heart tonight. Tell her we are rooting for her! We are family, MAGA
Prayers for you and your entire family.
This board has helped when I've asked for prayers. These are some powerful prayer warriors here. I've offered up a prayer for your grandmother and you and your family and all in the hospital who interact with your grandmother that they be their most competent, compassionate, creative, and caring in their work with your grandmother. May our Father in Heaven bless you both and protect and provision you.
Prayers to you and your grandparents. I hope she recovers soon.
Praying now!!!
I'm praying over her now.
Heavenly Father, we come to You today on behalf of anon LogicCircuits' beloved grandmother, in the hospital now with a blood infection. Lord, we ask that You heal this beloved grandmother thoroughly, that all of her healthcare workers give her the most excellent care, that the antibiotics she's been given clear up her physical problems, that she rests peacefully at night to rejuvenate her body, that she regain her strength and appetite and that she can return home soon to be with her loved ones. Father, please lift the spirits of this beloved woman and those of her loving family, ease any worries they may have. We ask this in Jesus' mighty name. 🙏✝️
Please give us an update when you're able. I'm not a doctor, but I imagine that between the blood infection and potential internal bleeding it's no wonder she's tired. Antibiotics can work fairly rapidly so let's hope that's the case with your grandmother. As far as internal bleeding it could be as simple as an ulcer in which case simple remedies are often available. They'll likely do an endoscopy to check her stomach for that. We're hoping and praying for the very best for her - rapid, full recovery and return back home.
Anon, you're very blessed to have such a close relationship with your grandparents. My grandfathers both passed when I was quite young, but I was very lucky to get to spend a good amount of time with my beloved grandmothers, get to know them as the wonderful ladies they were. I have such good memories of dear family who have passed on and I always thank God for allowing me to be able to spend time with them here in this life. Cherish the time you're blessed to spend with your family. I'm sure they cherish the time they get to spend with you, too. God bless.
Prayers sent 🙏

Do you heavenly father we pray for Grandma We ask your father to gift the doctor’s wisdom and knowledge and how to treat her symptoms and to get her on a path to recovery.
