My wife’s grandmother will probably pass this weekend if not overnight. Would have been 94 at end of the month. She was/is tough. She had a headache last Sunday which turned out to be a brain bleed/ probably aneurysm I’m guessing. Had strokes while in hospital before she was sent home with hospice yesterday. She then proceeded to become more alert and talked with people when she didn’t drift off to sleep. This evening it changed though and the end is near.
She had a heck of a life. Moved to west tn from Arkansas via horse and wagon after she had lost 3 siblings in the white river on a family picnic outing. Whirlpool got one, then one went after the first and then another and all 3 perished. Her dad built a rock wall enclosure where the kids are buried near the town of Mountain View. My wife remembers her riding a cow lol. She worked cows well into her 70’s if not into her 80’s until she had open heart surgery. She was a foster parent for many years also.
My wife also needs prayers for herself. She has a lump and is scheduled for a biopsy Monday. I wasn’t going to say anything until after, but I am asking for all the prayers I can get for her before we get results.
We are not doing well with the waiting. You hope and pray for the best but it’s hard to keep the bad thoughts at bay. Our lives have just been put on pause for the moment as we each try to prop up the other.
I don’t know what else to say but thanks for any and all prayers.
