Somethings not right...

Everyone please keep my Mamaw in your prayers. I went to see her today before she left with her sister to spend some time in Wichita Falls. She has been battling colon cancer since March of 2006. She has a permanent ostomy bag. It is all really a long story so to make it semi short, this is not her kind of life. She is a retired nurse and does not believe in doctors! I know... confusing! Anyhow, three weeks ago she had a wreck and totaled her car. She says that she simply fell asleep behind the wheel. But when I went to see her today I have been led to believe that she is struggling neurologically. Her response time to simple questions is extremely delayed. She could not get her right foot to go into her shoe. I mean like her mind would not tell her foot to lift off of the ground and set into the shoe. So... very simple everyday things she is seriously struggling with. This is a lady who at 75 years old and starting two months after having her ostomy placed went on two ski trips, a two week vacation to hawaii and an alaskan cruise!!! She is normally very independent and is now having a hard time asking for help. I am very afraid that her cancer may have spread to her brain due to the symptoms she is having and she refuses to see another doctor. So please just keep her in your prayers. She claims to be saved and will talk all day with you about Jesus dying on the cross to save us from our sins, but she also talks about the other side and reincarnation. She is very new age. She was raised in Hawaii so this is her culture... I don't know, I am just really confused! I need prayer as well as her. Please just lift us up! Thank yall so much.
