Just got off the phone with Mama Becky. She reports that her parents went to a nursing home this weekend. Her father, Clyde, is 97 and suffering from a bad eye infection. Her step-mother, Mildred, is 89.
They have lived in the same house in the Mississippi Delta for 70 years!
Please keep them, my mom, and her sisters in your prayers.

Would you mind praying for another
ReplyDeleteMississippian? My grandmother has been having "spells" for a couple of years now--we think they're small strokes, and they're slowly destroying her mind. Please pray for her and her family as she declines and they care for her. Thank you.
Father, I live alone with my 94 year old mom who has alzheimers, and it's over 2 years since I've had a day off. It was interacting with you on your blog and your articles and comments that gave me the wake-up call that I'm well past "burn-out" as a constant caregiver, and I'm now in the process of making improved arrangements. I'm learning and changing. You will likely never know, this side of heaven, the lives you touch as a priest, and as voice of reason. Thank you.
