Prayers Needed Again!

This time I am asking for prayers for my mother. To make a long story short, she's been having issues with her eyesight and eyes. Last fall, she had a procedure done to help with glaucoma. A few weeks ago she had some follow up test done and ever since she's been seeing floaters and when she closes her eyes..there is flashing..so much she can't sleep and she can't focus, etc. Well, she went to the specialist and her eyes are okay but they recommend an appt to the neurologist. She didn't make the appt. She's hoping this will go away. She's not one that will make dr appts. She's 80 years old. I tried talking to her but with no prevail..she doesn't want to worry me...who me? Worry? Ah...I worry. So, I've called two of my siblings who I think may get more information and can maybe convince her to go see this neurologist. Lord willing, she's okay but if there are issues...we need to know so we can help her...right? Oh gosh...I'm completely stressed. BTW: My dad is not doing much. He's 83 and maybe he doesn't see what is going on. I don't know if he's concerned. She's making light of this and I know she's going to wait and wait.... I pray she'll have to wisdom to not sit on this (like she likes to do) and go to the dr.

Also, I had long conversations with my siblings and we all agree that her way of doing things is changing. She doesn't remember as much as she used too, she says really strange things, she talks a lot...I'm thinking alz.hiemer.s. I don't know but it's a gut. I refuse to dr.google for God only knows what I'll find. This is scaring me. Oh dear Lord...I need courage and understanding!

So, prayers please!

Also...to add more stress. I applied to graduate with my master's this summer (I have one master's project to complete) and I get a letter stating I need more credit hours in one area. What? I know I did everything. Ugh! So there's been emails back and forth between me and my advisor. Why not more stress? Geez.....

I won't discuss how stressed I've been with teaching the 5th grade..oh...I've done that already.

So, prayers please! I feel helpless in so many situations right now. How do I trust our Good Lord in all of this? Prayers, prayers and more prayers. Thank you!!!
