Granny Hanging On

10-06am

Mike’s Mom (aka Granny) seemed to have a good night. Her colour this morning seemed better & she appears comfortable.   She managed 100ml of Ensure & drifts in & out. Sometimes she looks at me with wide eyes & other times she just stares vacantly at me. There is not too much response. Her breathing is not as laboured this morning.  Her vital signs are good, so I don’t know how long it will be. These things cannot be rushed.  I went through some of the photos I’ve got of Granny. There are loads.  Here she is with Sally her sister about to go to the nursery.

And here she is enjoying her favourite place – the garden. ..

She loved gardening. I am here to be with her as she approaches the finish line.

Hebrews 12 vss 1-2

Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.

Thank – you so much for all the messages of support we have received.  I don’t know how long the wait will be.  I am just grateful that when we leave her she is never alone. She is closing in on the finish line.  She is in the stadium.  This is the final lap.

God bless you loads.

In His Grip,

Helga xx 🙂
