And now may the Lord bless you and keep you.

May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you.

And may God grant unto you His peace-in your going out and in your coming in,

In your lying down and in your rising up,

In your labor and in your leisure,

In your laughter and in your tears,

Until you come to stand before Jesus

In that day in which there is no sunset and no dawning.

Amen

Oh Dear and Alas

When talking to DH a week ago we were discussing the inheritance that I got from my father after he passed away. We used the money to purchase a new furnace, replace the shingles on the roof of the house and garage and to buy a security system. DH did not remember anything about the inheritance or how we had paid for these things.

Then yesterday DH told me that when he got home from visiting his mom the locks on the front door were different. We have gotten in the habit of locking them a different way in the last few months and they were locked the opposite of our current method. Then he could not find a special key that he had in his wallet, carefully placed so that it couldn't fall out. Oh dear, here we go again. Not a good thing.

Otherwise he is alert and aware. He does not appear to be having any major memory problems. That is God's blessing.

Please continue to pray for all dementia patients, their caregivers, family and friends.
