Hey...............awhile back I made a post about some of the negative things happening in my life. I was emotional and asked the refs to delete the thread, which thankfully, they did.
Well...........one of the things I mentioned was my mother having Stage 7 Alzheimer's. She passed away tonight.
I'm very sad and it's so painful to see my children so devastated. They were so close to my mom. It's a rough time, y'all. Very rough.
If you are the praying type, please pray for my family and for my mother's soul. If you are not, I would appreciate a time-out from warring w/some of you.
Thank you.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Just as I reached out to you on the post that got deleted, I'm just saying I'm capable of separating things.
My condolences to all.
Now, someone will have to quote this so he sees it.

Thanks everyone. I know from experience that it is hard to find words to comfort others who have experienced a loss. I always feel inadequate when trying to do so..............thus, I just wanna let you guys know that just seeing your responses have touched me.
Thanks so much.............

My sincerest condolences.
I have been lucky in that there has only been one case of Alzheimer's in my extended family. In my case, it was a lady we saw about once/year. It was easy to forget about her situation. I can only imagine how difficult it must be to lose someone like that, a little at a time, with each passing day.
I will definitely pray that God brings comfort for you and children. (and the rest of your family as well) She is at rest now, and we are assured of being made whole in the next life if we believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. I believe that if she was saved at any point in her life, then she is saved today. Jesus said, in John 10: 27-29: My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; and I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand. “My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand
That is a wonderful assurance, that once we are saved, we can never be taken from the Lord.
Micah 6:8; He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.
John 14:19 Jesus said: Because I live, you also will live.

I did my physical rehab in an Alzheimer/dementia facility to be close to my wife.
It changed me as human being..and got to see the very beginning and the very last stages.
I'm sorry..1 good thing she is no longer suffering. I have no words man.
Again sorry to hear it.

Vers you know I have been keeping y'all in my prayers, and I am very sorry to hear of the loss you all are suffering. I'm giving you a big old bear hug (quit squirming I know you like it) and remember it's OK to cry. I know you won't want to do it in front of the kids. You want to be strong for everybody, but it's very Therapeutic for you even when you do it when your all alone with nobody to hear you but God.
Hang on to all the great memories your Mom gave you in your lifetime. Keep her in your heart until you see her again bro.
I AM ALWAYS RIGHT... except when I am wrong.

That though the radiance which was once so bright be now forever taken from my sight. Though nothing can bring back the hour of splendor in the grass, glory in the flower. We will grieve not, rather find strength in what remains behind.

My deepest sympathies to you and your family, Vers. If she is the card playing type, hopefully, she's sitting across the Euchre table from my buddy who recently earned his wings.
I will add your name to the kids' pray list. It seemed to help GM along.

Vers, deepest condolences to you and your family. No idea how old your kids are, but hopefully they have many memories of her and who she was.
Rest easy knowing she is in a better place.
Don't often light candles, but did so yesterday. In the Catholic Church this past weekend was the anointing of the sick, so I thought it appropriate.

I just saw the thread Vers. I'm so sorry for your loss. There really are no words for the loss of a parent. I've been through it twice and know full well the trials it causes within a family.
Just know my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Feel free to call any time my friend.
