I agree in keeping family in the home, as they did for us in our youth. Yahweh will bring in the help to us, friends, neighbors, brothers and sisters in Yahweh, if we are demonstrating our faith. Sometimes the road gets bumpy.
Family is what brought me to Asheville. My very alcholic 80 year old grandma needed to be kept in her home, and the burden was great on my mom and sister. So I moved here to be there for her. It was very difficult, since she did continue to drink heavily, and was well the same as she always had been. But the gift or blessing, was that Yahweh gave the strength and wisdom to help her, be there for her etc. I am grateful for that experience.
Last February my mother had open heart surgery, valve replaced and 3 by-passed arteries, very grateful to be here to help her. Between my sister and I she was rarely alone in the hospital, or in the recovering stages at home. Yes trying at times, and difficult to see her so vulnerable, but again Yahweh blessed us all with strength.
I cannot imagine someone I caring about alone in a home, sick, in the hospital, alone.
Blessings, Jennifer
