Sudden Change of Plans



I have been away from the blog for a bit and will be for a bit more. In the midst of my dad's illness we found out last week that my mom has a brain tumor. She goes in for surgery this coming Monday. My parents are both needing a lot of daily assistance with tasks that used to be very simple, like getting dressed and ready in the morning. So my current job is home nurse assistant and taxi driver, not much time at the end of the day left for maintaining the bog. But I promise I will be back eventually. In the mean time, if you think to, please pray for my family.

Chesterton Quote of the Day
"It seems really to be supposed that a Trimmer means a cowardly person who always goes over to the stronger side. It really means a highly chivalrous person who always goes over to the waeker side; like one who trims a boat by sitting where there are few people seated. Woman is a trimmer; and it is a generous, dangerous and romantic trade."
-G.K. Chesterton

Having gone through something very similar, I can only say...there is always something very wonderful that comes from this. Give every moment showing love and the result will leave you with a knowledge that will forever change your life. My prayers for you and yours during this time of understanding.
