I visited Mom yesterday; not much had changed since my visit four weeks ago before I went to Scotland; she still isn’t eating or drinking much and has very few words. However, her faithfulness has remained steady and strong.
For all practical purpose my mom is deaf, but, since her eye sight is excellent, I write simple messages to her. Moving her head slowly, she reads each word carefully, then pauses (processing, I presume) before responding, usually with a nod and occasionally with a few words.
Yesterday she said it all, all that she is feeling at this time in her life, all that she has always known in her life.
Just before I left I wrote, “God has been with you all of your life.” Pause….
“That’s true….Very grateful.”
