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

Revelation

I have realized that the various hospitalizations that DH has experienced over the last two and a half years has played havoc with his memory. Several times lately when I say something about a plan that has been made and discussed with him he replies "It's nice you finely told me about this". It is more irritating that anything else. BUT...it may be a symptom that I need to watch.

DH is off all of his medication for dementia. The neurologist reminded me that I should look for symptoms and I think this may be one of them. As soon as DH is reminded he remembers that he already knows. The look on his face is one of pain.

Please continue to pray for all dementia patients, their families, friends and caregivers. They need all the prayers that they can get!
