say a prayer for gram

The above picture of my Mother-in-law was taken months ago. She has been getting much weaker lately. She is fighting pneumonia and is weak and very tired. She is still eating, but it takes about 45 minutes to an hour to feed her (she has Alzheimer's). Thankfully she seems peaceful. It is hard seeing her like this. Praying that God's will be done in her life (which always seems like a strange prayer, but that is what he tells us to pray!)

  4. Re your comment to me - you will love Lynn Austin. And I'm glad you found Debbie Macomber - love love her books - especially the Cedar Cove series and the knitting store series - can't think of the name right now.

  5. The book I mentioned is brand new, so I had to actually ask the library to order it, I think. Lynn has written two series that are wonderful - one about the kings of Israel and one about the Civil War era - she's really versatile. I can send you the names if you want me to. Which book did you get? I just finished "All She Ever Wanted." Very good.
