An update on my Mom …
She was supposed to be discharged yesterday to a rehab near her home, but the hospital didn’t contact the rehab first thing in the morning so the bed was given away. Now the plan is for her to be discharged tomorrow (Sunday) at 2:30pm.
I started a poster for my Mom to bring cheer to her rehab room. You can click on the picture to enlarge. These are pictures of our family members (and one friend). All of my Mom’s children, grandchildren and great grandchildren will be present, but I still have 5 pictures to add …
The pictures of my brother and his wife will be picked up this morning and glued to my work of art (ha).
Please pray that my Mom will have NO CONFUSION in Jesus’ Name. She is a stroke victim who has been in the same routine since 2001. This has definitely been hard for her. I really covet your prayers.
This past week has been difficult so yesterday I actually took a little time to enjoy the pool (in the midst of handling hospital, rehab, and parent calls). I was thrilled when my hubby took us out to eat seafood last night. Yum! I am shaking about getting on the scale. I have eaten poorly the past 3 weeks and have avoided the scale completely. Compared to the situation around me with my parents, my weight loss has fallen to the back burner.
I am looking forward to things settling down a bit around here. That will happen, right?
This is my rambling post, so bear with me. :o) Since you have read this far … would you please do me a little bitty favor and click on this link and “Like” my blog on FB? Just click HERE. I certainly would appreciate it. Really, it will only take a couple of seconds.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone~ Here are a couple of early morning pictures I just took near my deck.
All photos were taken with my iPhone.
Praying for your mom.
I'm following you now — found you through blogfrog. And happy to meet another North Carolinian here!
God bless!
Hi, Beth! Just wanted you to know I'm praying for your mom and I LOVE the poster. There's no sweeter medicine than the love of family. :o) Happy weekend!
Beth, so sorry to read about your mom. I will be praying for her and for …you. I know from personal experience how difficult it can be, especially when it's your mom.
I already liked you on Facebook. I checked to be sure. And yes, in the midst of the stress, it's so easy to trash the good eating habits. Just have lots of fruits and veggies handy in baggies wherever you go. It helps.
Love you,
Debbie
Hi Beth. Nice to "meet" you. Sorry to hear about your mom. Praying she'll get better soon. I would like you on Facebook, but I stay away from it because I know i'd be sucked in. 😉 I was thinking yesterday that I needed to look up that pink fuzzy tree from my neighborhood where I grew up. I haven't thought of that tree in ages and then here it is. A mimosa. Thanks!
Blessings this Pentecost Sunday Beth,
Praying that TODAY's the day for your mom!
Even though it may seem that they'll be more normalcy, it may still be awhile adjusting and making all the transitions but with God's grace and the Holy Spirit's power, may each day be filled with His sweet healing and recovery for all of you. May He tenderly hold you and your family as you press ahead to normalcy (whatever that is or holds for you)…may you have peace and comfort!
Thanks for your extra visit over to the Power of Your Love! With your scriptures above, I was going to link you to SOAKing On SONday so more would be praying… but I don't get that many linking so I guess Spiritual Sunday would be better… in that case. Praying all goes well.
Love, peace and JOY,
Peggy
praying non-stop for your mom.
Praying for your Mom! I went over and "liked" you on FB.
Praying for your mom. There's a prayer I put at The Lighthouse of prayer. God is so good and I ask that He heal your mom in the name of Jesus.
