Today we took a road trip back home so mom could visit her friends and patients from her work of 30 years. She didn't seem to mind the car ride, the warm sun was making her sleepy. But I did get a chance to wake her up a bit when I shared my most embarrassing moments growing up. Which I will not share here...
Everyone was so happy to see mom. I can't describe what it was like taking her from person to peron for maybe that last hug, that last goodbye...It brought tears to most of them, including me. Mom teared up too but mostly I could see she was tyring to be strong for her patients who were so worried for her. Mom worked hard all those years and even though some days were very difficult she loved care taking. I could even see in myself why mom was so dedicated, the people there are so sweet. It was a very special day.
So the day is almost over and mom's upstairs resting now.
My thoughts to end today's blog come from:
Psalms 147:3 He heals the brokenhearted, binding up their wounds.
I know our hearts are breaking but God gives us hope and strength and He comforts us in our time of need.
Goodnight
