She is still barely able to function, and has not worked since, even though she was working from home. Months earlier, they had just bought a new home an hour and a half's drive from where they had lived for many years together after marrying over 20 years ago (our home town). She has until next June to decide if she can continue that job, and she also has the option of returning to the job she had before that, which would require her to drive that 3 hours daily, so will not likely opt for that. She can hardly think about work at this point. The dog they'd had for many years passed the very same day, as she could not delay having little Lucy put down (her and her husband had previously discussed their imminent need to do so). She had been a cat person before that, but everyone loved little Lucy.
Funny story: as my mother lay on her hospital death bed and my twin brother kissed her, because he was a bit bristly from his beard and/or mustache, our mother asked if that was Lucy. LOL. That was in 2009. So Lucy was very old, but my brother-in-law had just turned 65. He was diagnosed as soon as he had noticeable symptoms, which my sister quickly became aware of as her husband became increasingly confused over the course of one week. It was quite traumatizing for my sister, partly because doctors realized there was nothing they could do for him after a third tumor appeared four days after his first scan showing only two. They sent him home where he died in bed eighteen days after being diagnosed.
Close to 2.5 years ago, my daughter's dad was only 65 when he passed of a massive brain hemorrhage.
He'd had a brain bleed two years before that also, and cracked his skull as well when he hit the pavement.
It took him a long time to recover from that and maybe he never really fully did.
Life is such a gift, and we never know how or when we are going to go. All the more reason
for people to turn to Jesus and believe in His great love for us, that we may escape the second
death and attain the life ever after by grace through faith in His shed righteous blood.
I best be about my day. I still have to wrap gifts! Thank you for your prayers, everybody .
And if you could pray for my daughter also, as she is not a believer. Thank you!
