Thanks for your prayers, everyone. My update was eaten by the forum outage, but basically both my Mom and my nephew are fully healed. Mom's surgery was a success, and my nephew didn't need surgery.
I have elderly neighbors who needs some bigtime prayers. A few weeks ago, the husband fell down in their house and had to go to the hospital. He was out in a day or so and seems fine.
The EMTs must've said something to someone, because the next day there was an orange sign on the window which said that the house was unfit for human habitation. Apparently they were hoarders and had a mouse infestation. (We've had mouse troubles, too, but not at the level they had.) Their kids are cleaning out the house in jumpsuits and masks, and have already thrown out over three dumpster-loads of stuff. I'm almost afraid that they won't have anything left by the time the cleanups done. At the very least, they'll come home to a very changed house.
Please pray for them, that they may have the strength to deal with this.
Thank you.
ETA: I just learned tonight the exact reason for the cleanup: Hantavirus. In this case, you might want to pray for the guy my Dad saw dumpster diving there a few days ago, too.
I'm glad she's at peace.
