Good Morning everyone: This is sad news – My Mom is not doing very well and has taken a very bad turn in her illness. Currently Her kidneys are in failure, blood pressure is going down very low(75/48) and according to the Hospice Care Team there are only days left. Mom had been a semi-comatose state ( Christmas Eve and Day) but currently she is back with us for a time. She has always been a fighter and I believe is just waiting until her sister and some other family members arrive. She is somewhat disoriented, days and times messed up and she is talking about trying to get somewhere because she is not where she should be?
I am just very grateful that she has true faith and understands that at times we must suffer just a little bit here on earth, but our reward is so merciful and wonderful. I am grateful for this time with her, to be able to let her know how much I have loved her and how much she means to me. This is a sad time but also I feel joy knowing that her time of trial is just about over and that I WILL see her again in G_D’s Glory, in our heavenly home. Death is not an end, just a new beginning in eternity. My sister is here currently but does need to go home for an appointment on Monday. Mom’s sister and her husband will be here today. So things are somewhat under control. I ask for prayers for my Dad, sister who are having a very difficult time in dealing with everything going on. There is anger, hurt, frustration, and many other emotions that they are feeling. Pray that G_D, through HIS SON, our Redeemer, gives them the ability to turn towards HIM at this time and Pray with their hearts. What do we need at this time, PRAYER and more PRAYER, Rosaries said for Mom’s soul and if you want visits and if you can help with her personal care. Hospice only comes once a day and other then myself no one can do personal care for Mom. I know it is very hard for people, especially family, to have to do these things for a loved one. I am thankful that G_D has given me the knowledge and the grace to be able to do these things. Though I am getting a bit tired, I believe that I can continue for a time. My sister has been taking the wee- hours of the morning allowing me to go home and get some rest. Thank you all for your prayers and concern, Love, Geri by way of Jeannette [email protected] <*}}}>< <http://www.holypostage.com/>Holy Postage <*}}}>< <*}}}><<http://www.halfthekingdom.org/>Half the <http://www.halfthekingdom.org/>Kingdom!<*}}}>< Lord, may everything we do begin with Your inspiration and continue with Your help, so that all our prayers and works may begin in You and by You be happily ended.
