Last night my mom called to say that Grandma has been moved permanently from the 2nd story apartment of her nursing home to a 1st floor room for more critical care. Mom's visiting every other day. At this point, with her sight failing and her lungs more dependent on an oxygen tube, she spends much of her day in bed.
Is this a time to be sad? Of course. No one should have to endure a frail body, especially someone as selfless and strong throughout her life as my grandmother. Our prayer to God's goodness is that she be filled with peace all throughout her remaining days, and spared from physical or mental weariness/pain.
May we all find cause to smile in our own situation.
