Meant For Yesterday in meh...

I talked to my mom yesterday and she told me that one of the ladies that was in her facility had passed away the day before. I asked if she had been ill in any other way before she passed. She only said that she’d been on hospice care and that her family had been there all through the night and then when they went home, she passed. I asked her about a few of the others that are there and found they are there but are doing poorly.

With the way my frame of mind has been lately, I got tears in my eyes and almost cried upon hearing the news. My mother was been diagnosed with MS when I was 2. She’s been dealing with this degenerative disease for over 40 years. When I think about all the people that have been diagnosed and not too long after that they die I just look at my mom and say, “She’s still here.”

Even as shaky as I am in my faith, I know God has kept her and I thank Him for her. She is a tough broad even though she may sometimes feel like she’s been counted out, she continues to pray for healing and restoration. I know I pray for her healing and restoration. She often says, “The only thing is, once I’m delivered, where am I going to stay? What am I going to do?” Or she begins some sentences, “When I’m walking again…” I love her faithfulness. I admire her faithfulness.

I just really love my mother. I always tell her, I can get a bigger house somewhere and you can stay with me. She would then say she doesn’t want to cramp my style and I’d say what style? Nobody wants me. Then we’d laugh.

I just wanted to document this I suppose. I was in prayer this morning and remembered our conversation yesterday.

That’s it…

Kindest regards,
Sister
