Prayer Request for my Grandma
I found out today that my grandma is in congestive heart failure. I'm in shock right now. I thought she'd live to be over 100, but it appears God may have other plans for her. I would appreciate prayers from all of you. I'm overwhelmed with grief at the idea of losing my one remaining grandparent. There's a chapter in the book devoted to my grandparents. They played a major role in bringing me up and were a constant source of unconditional love for me. I can't keep typing now because I'm crying too hard, but please send prayers for my Grandma, Agatha Walker.

Hi Cami - I will add her name to my book of prayers and keep her in my thoughts. I've lost both of my grandmothers, and think of them every day -- both were powerful and amazing women who lived through some amazing challenges, bringing our family into focus.
Hugs to you.

Just a quick update for everyone. My grandma is feeling much better. She's recovering at home. I can't wait to see her next week and plan to cook up a few soups for her and freeze single size servings so she has some nourishment to help get her strength up. thanks so much for all your prayers.

Great news Cami!
I think those single-serving soups you're making are going to be like little bits of love she can pull out and nourish herself with - body and soul.
Beautiful!

Hi Cami,
I just now read this about your grandmother. I am so sorry to hear this - I know how close you are to her. But I'm happy she's feeling better and I'm glad you're going to spend time with her. She sounds like a very special woman. I will keep you both in my prayers.
