"May your days be crammed full of the
small joys that tip the balance towards hope."
SARAH CLARKSON, as seen on Facebook, 2022
I am called away from my everyday life for a little while to
tend to my dear 90-year-old mom, who took a tumble—every
elder person's nightmare. Thankfully no broken bones,
but it will take a while to gather fresh wind for her sails.
I won't be posting this week. Fingers crossed and
prayers whispered. I hope to be back next week,
but we're taking it one day at a time.

Until next time, I'm wishing you a beautiful day,
Brenda

So sorry to hear about your mother, Brenda. I'm not far from her age, and falls are a constant worry. It will take time for her to gather confidence again, but I'm sure you will be there alongside her.
ReplyDeleteThank the Lord she didn't break anything! Bless her heart, falling is so scary for the elderly. I'm so glad you can be with her, as she recovers her emotions and bearings.
ReplyDeleteBrenda - will be praying for your mom and you as well. Take care- hugs!
ReplyDeleteI hope she is okay and that she heals comfortably. She is blessed to have you go and take care of her!
ReplyDeleteOh, I am so sorry to read this Brenda. Falls are a worry for my parents, too. I am so glad nothing was broken and I will pray for healing and renewed confidence. I'm glad you can be there for her.
ReplyDeletePrayers sent for fast healing. Blessings to you both. xo
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear your news about your mother’s fall. I had a recent fall and can sympathize. No bones broken is very good news. It shakes you to the core when fall happens. Prayers to you both for a fast recovery. Hugs, Elaine
ReplyDeleteAwww Brenda, I’m so sorry!!! Darn these falls ! Very thankful to hear that miraculously nothing is broken! I am so sad tho. I hope that somehow somebody knew and she was able to be helped sooner than later.

Thank you, dear friends, for your kind wishes and prayers. Much appreciated! Mom is still in hospital. They have been monitoring her - when she fell she hit her head - and as a result there has been some internal bleeding. But little by little things are improving. His grace is sufficient. Her medical care has been amazing. So grateful.
ReplyDeleteOh Brenda...I am so sorry for the bad fall your Mom had. May the Lord bless her day and night. I am so very sorry for her pain. Thank God things are improving. Yes, His grace is definitely sufficient. Bless you both, dear Brenda.
