I need your prayers now

16 years ago

I've have not been on for awhile. My sweet Mom who has suffered from Alzheimers for the last 12 years is very ill and is now in palliative care at the nursing home. It is just a waiting game now. We are keeping her as comfortable as we can and spending as much time with her as possible.

Please keep her in your prayers for peace.

Mush ~ I understand what you are experiencing with your mom. Although my DH does not have Alz. as they once thought, he has had strokes that have affected his thought processes, so I have a feel for what you are going through.

I will right this moment stop and pray for your Mom and for the Lord to wrap her in the comfort of His loving arms and to help her make an easy transition from leaving this life to a glorious life with God. And also for Him to comfort you as you take this arduous journey with your mom.

Love n Hugs,
Kitt

The best news,just as we all hoped! Dexascan is a piece of cake - I used to do them when I worked in the Rheumatology office. Bone-building drugs may be prescribed, but they work slowly, so 6 weeks one way or the other won't make a huge difference. There are lots of reasons you can have osteopenia or osteoporosis - drug therapies, both chemo and steroids, being too thin (being under 127 pounds is a marker for risk), family history, early menopause, low calcium and Vitamin D, and the list goes on. For now, take care of yourself, be a good girl and do what the docs tell you to do. We'll all be here, thinking of you and cheering you on until those crutches are tucked away in the closet.

Thanks Monica...I was just going to come and post about needing more prayers. Poor little tyke has been through alot in his short little life. Their facebook is their own, Chris & Angie's. Alot of people can't get on Carepage with their Blackberries, (I am one of those and we where gone from the puter) so they post about the same thing on their facebook pages too.

I've been through this as well. I remember grieving in advance, if that's what it would be called. Maybe you are going through that now too. Keeping her comfortable and spending time with her is about all you can do at this point. I'm so sorry and know how emotionally painful this is.

Sorry to hear that you have this issue to deal with, Mush - they call it "the long 'good-bye'" with reason.

Though you've been grieving for the sight of the familiar face ... but the sadness and frustration about the vacancy behind it, for some time, now ... as you come near the end of her life the pain increases once again.

May you find comfort to your heart and peace as she moves out of this dimension of life, and I pray also that it may be so for her, as well, and for the others of her family and friends.

(((((Mush, Mom and family)))))
