OT: Prayers needed for Albert

11 years ago

Betty just called me from the intensive care unit in Corpus Christi. Albert( PrinceAlbert) is in critical condition, and they do not expect him to make it. Betty asked that I let all his friends know. Please pray for a miracle so that h makes it. His organs or shutting down, she could hardly talk, but wanted me to let eveyone know. Albert is such a wonderful person, please pray for him. Barbra

Barbra - is this the same Albert that loves his brugmansia collection so much?

Prayers not only for Albert, but his family and friends as well.

Thank you for posting the article from the Union Leader. After reading the article from the newspaper last evening (The Cabinet)I was wondering what happened. It was a horrible accident. How helpless that person operating the snowblower must have felt at that moment. Extra prayers for them. My husband was in a crush trauma accident 6 years ago. Most people do not survive with the same injuries. We are thankful for each day. Remember to hug your loved ones and tell them each day how much they mean to you. Each day is more precious than we realize.

I am so sorry to hear this news. We lose loved ones and it is difficult, but to lose a child - a little girl, is just so much of a loss. I pray that her family will find peace in some way very soon. I know that it will come - in the right time, it will come; I know as I lost my DD 13 years ago. I miss her dearly, every day, but the time has come that the memories bring peace and joy, and I smile. I send my hugs and best wishes to her family. I thank you also for keeping us all informed. gng

Here are the updates from Thursday and Friday: Thursday Morning Update December 28 Journal entry by Mikki Spagnoli — 12/28/2017 It appears that her high fever is nuero related and they have ruled out infection through blood and urine cultures. I'm not sure if I feel better or worse about that. She is still scheduled for surgery at 12:00 today. Please pray for her and all involved around that time. I also want to say that after spending 14 nights in Memorials PICU I can testify that this floors medical staff is unbelievably amazing. While I'm eager for Ella to head to the next part of her journey I feel forever blessed by these individuals. They have treated Ella and our entire family as if we were their family. The care has been nothing short of top notch and we are blessed to have such a medical option in our area. FRIDAY MORNING Update December 29 Good morning. We are still planning our departure at 10:00. This leg of our journey is coming to an end and I have so many mixed emotions. As I stated before Memorial Hospital has provided excellent care and treated us like family. The comfort that I have felt is scary to leave. Also, the location to our home has allowed family and friends to visit us daily. This has allowed us a sense of normalcy, even for just a moment, when there is none. The distance is a scary thing for me. I am grateful that we are headed to Mary Free Bed, as it is top notch in care for those with traumatic brain injury. Having said all of that, "we go with God". Our great provider and physician. Love and thankfulness to you allJournal entry by Mikki Spagnoli — 8 hours ago Friday Morning Update December 29

Oh, my gosh. What terrible news. Thanks for letting us know, Barbra. I'm looking right now at a brug he sent me last year. My thoughts go out to his family; he's a lovely man.

Albert passed away at 1PM yesterday. He is best know for sharing his brugmansia plants. He just got interested in Plumeria, after he moved to the coast this past Dec. He was just putting in his flowerbeds at his new house. I talked to him last Saturday. He offered to let me have his trailer to bring back the big plumeria plants from John's house for K and Willey. I did not have a hitch on my car, He said his daughter took his truck to Belton, so he did not have a way to haul the trailer either. I told him I will just take my small truck, and see if I could bring a few home. When the box I had was too small to mail Andrew's Bill Morange, Albert drove 15 miles to bring me a box so I would be able to mail it to him. He was always thinking of others. He always read the plumeria forum, brugmansia forum, and the gardening in Texas forum, he told me he was so busy building his new deck and putting in flowerbeds, that he did not have time to post anymore.

I just spoke with Betty, they just got down to Belton, and made the funeral arrangements. Albert will be buried at 1:00pm on Thursday at Dossman Funeral Home in Belton. She told me that she is so happy they moved to the coast, so that Albert got to fulfill his dream. She will be staying with her daughter. Barbra

I didn't know Albert, but I am still very sorry to hear this news. It sounds like he left behind a lot of favorable memories and impressions. It is wonderful that he was able to touch so many people during his time here... rest in peace.

Barbra, thank you for keeping us updated. I still just can't believe it. It wasn't that long ago you told me that funny story about him pulling the palm out of your yard with a rope tied around his waist.

I always think of him when I water the brugs he kindly sent me. They'll be more precious to me now.

So wonderful to know that he at least got to live his dream at the coast for a while.

Jen, you can actually see that picture under the Gardening in Texas forum, under the thread Made Me Work Hard. I still can't believe how strong he was. Also look under the thread Prince Albert and see the pictures of him at the April Plant swap. Barbra
