I had a hard time coming to work this morning. I heard commotion upstair and went up before going to work and Daddy was in the recliner and Momma was in their bed. She had shoes and scissors in the bed and looked frightened. When I asked her what was going on she said Daddy was trying to kill her. Apparently, Momma wouldn't stay in the hospital bed and kept getting up and walking into the bedroom. She grabbed her grabber and was trying to take down the ceiling fan. Then when Daddy tried to take it from her and give her pain meds she started swinging it at him.  He got it from her but she wouldn't let him touch her or take meds from him. I calmed her down gave her her pain pill and she wanted me to pray with her so I did. She then felt better and said I could go to work. Called her on break and lunch and she was no longer frightened and had been sleeping. I love my sweet Momma!

Life with Momma

It's getting near the end.  Momma is quite out of it most the time and says crazy silly things.  I love sitting with her while she rests it sleeps. She looks so peaceful.  Daddy's asleep now too. He is so tired. Bless his heart, he has worked so hard these past 9 months taking care of Momma. I know it's hard watching his wife slip away. I pray that he is comforted and blessed with health and strength to keep going. He only leaves Momma to go grocery shopping and then either I'm here with her or another family member or neighbor. They are so loved by their neighbors and friends. Sometimes Momma just starts singing rhymes and songs from her childhood. It's so cute and fun. I sometimes wish Heavenly Father would take her so she won't have to suffer from the pain anymore.  I love my Momma so very much! She and my Daddy are my heroes. They do so much good for everyone. Momma and Daddy are the glue that holds us all together. I hope after Momma passes that I will be able to step up and keep us together.
