tired

Well, I have been really tired. I think it comes from the emotions of the last 2 weeks. My father-in-law's stroke and my mother-in-law's downword spiral. My hubby has been spending time with my FIL and I with my MIL. Trying to get her to eat has been difficult. It takes an hour to an hour and a half just to get a little into her. They took her off all behavioral meds on Tuesday afternoon and she has finally awakened. However it has been a bit scary to see where she was mentally in her alzheimer condition. I don't know if that will improve a bit as the drugs get out of her system or whether this is it. I am fearful of her rapid decline, (and I think she is too). It is hard not to be consumed by this...but I know I need to trust God in his care of both inlaws and not be anxious.

  2. Nannykim,
    I am so sorry your inlaws are having a hard time. It is times like these we need to praise the Lord that he is working in our lives. OMGOSH!! I just loved that song. I was singing it like if I knew it. Would you mind if I put that utube on my blog and tell people that I heard it here?
    Thank-you for making my day I am off to sing it again!!
    God Bless,
