Prayers for SterlingRose's Mom, otherwise known as My Mom #2.
SR and I have known each other over 30 years, her mom has been like a second mom to me, even though she went to school with my sister and is a very young 63.
Monday she had her foot amputated below the knee, because of Diabetes. She has had issues as long as I've known her, but now it it getting to the point where they have to start cutting parts off to stop the gangrene. This is not good. She is in the hospital with much pain, and poor SR, still at home recovering from HER surgery.
Thoughts and prayers go out to my good friend, needing strength and encouragement at this time.
Thanks guys,
Kenny

I'll be sending good wishes to SternlingRose's Mom, DKA. Parents are precious, no matter whose parents they are and we all feel it when someone's parent is ill or in need.

DKA, I'm so sorry. I dealt with this for many years with my ex-husband. He wouldn't give permission to amputate on over 4 occassions of gangrene now. he's let them cut toes and the front of his foot off but just refused the leg. So far, he's still going but constantly dealing with trying to heal it. I totally understand what the Rose's are going through and my heart goes out to them. It's a terrible disease!

Aww, my thoughts are with her. Folks if a doctor ever tells you you might have diabetes please take them seriously.

Thanks y'all. I checked with SR a couple of times today. Mom#2 is in a great deal of pain, phantom and real. SR is having a heck of a time finding a support group in that gawdforsaken part of Ohio.
Cork, feel free to PM her. You know who she is. She had coffee with you and me and Sunshine and her little Timmy 4th of July Morning on BB's Porch, watching the Parade. She asks about you two all of the time. She would love to hear from ya. You could be the angel she needs right now.
Mom#2 has been in the hospital for months now, and might be able to get out by the end of the year.
Ya heard what SWGB said. Take Diabetes seriously. I've completely revamped my eating habits and lifestyle as I'm a perfect candidate for that and heart disease. I ain't going out that way.
