There are still prayers needed for others in my own family so I'd appreciate if you'd add them also.
As for understanding. . . .well there are plenty of things that I need help understanding -- both on a personal and a medical basis, such as, why is it that it is considered abuse to keep a nursing home resident clean so that fungus and infections don't set it; but it's not abuse to do sponge baths on someone that is incoherent?
And why is it that with our pets we can provide them with final days and an "easy" death (not that any death is ever easy) but with our "human" loved ones we have to wait until their bodies completely shut down and be witnesses to that slow decline.
And then there is the question of people not wanting to take responsibility for things that they should be doing. . . .and allowing outsiders to take over?
At some point this blog will get back to what it was intended to be. . . but for the time being it is probably going to be extremely quiet.
In peace and pieces,
