Prayers for my mother

If everyone could please say a prayer for my mother, it would be greatly appreciated. Last night during our family Christmas party, she begin feeling like her throat was closing in and had trouble breathing and talking. We thought it was something she ate and was having an allergic reaction, so we took her to the ER. Once we got there, we noticed her left side of her mouth was drooping. Fearing she was having a stroke, they quickly took her off for a cat scan. The cat scan came back normal, so now they are leaning towards bells palsy. In order to confirm this, they need to do an MRI, which they tried this morning but she had a panic attack (claustrophobic). So tomorrow morning they will drug her up and take her for the MRI. Hopefully it is just bells palsy and they can start treating it. She is very upset and worried she won't be out of the hospital before I go in to give birth to Clayton, so please pray for a speedy recovery!
