Mother injured her spine falling off a chair, she was trying to put away some of my winter clothes. The first thing that came up my mind was to scold at her for I’ve told her a million times that I’m capable of tidying up my own rooms. Thank God that I was able to keep my poise because raising my voice would probably make the situation worse. I just kept silent and worried.
We took her to the hospital, the x-ray revealed that a section of her spine was injured. She’ll need to stay at the hospital for a few days until she can get up and walk herself, and following that will be a longer period of treatment, regular check-up, and rehabilitation.
Oh Lord, please take good care of my mother, let the doctor(s) examine the injury thoroughly and offer the most appropriate treatment accordingly. Please lessen her pain and let her sleep well at night. If You’re willing, Oh Lord, please heal her completely no matter how long it may take.
