  1. Dear Wanderers…prayer covering most appreciated. I stepped in to see my friend this morning. She was sleeping and her caregiver said it would be fine to step over and pray over her and a light kiss on the forehead (friend has alway insisted upon a kiss on the forehead). I was there less than sixty seconds. Prayed over her lightly touching her hair..bent over to kiss her forehead and she lashed out at me yelling for me to leave! Her face was contorted and terrifying. I sat in the parking lot sobbing, walked around Walmart sobbing came home sobbing. I won’t go back. Husband and I along with her husband will be moving her things into the new facility on Wednesday. Other friend plans to take her on a drive in the mountains while we accomplish the move. This has been traumatizing to say the least.

    As I walked in Walmart I was texted from another friend of horrific happenings in their family…shocking and devastating. This day has been pretty much a wash…the enemy is on the prowl and I looked into his face this day…I will not be defeated…

  4. Heavenly Father, I pray for protection of NJ’s shattered heart. She may have felt knocked down today, but she is not destroyed. Her friend has life in Jesus. Thank You for that knowledge which carries us through so much. The mind may take leave here on earth, but there is so much more to being alive in Jesus for eternity. Please ease the hurt NJ feels. Please comfort her. Please give her strong remembrance of Your final victory when all of these fallen earth moments will fade into nothingness as Your glory stands bright without any darkness. Thank You for NJ and her beautiful being. She is so dear to You. Please help her to be comforted by You so she will be prepared to give comfort to others in the future. I pray in Jesus’ name, Amen

  5. Oh NJ, I am so sorry. I had a next-door neighbor who lost her only son (really her only living relative) to a house fire a year ago and that knocked the legs out from under her. She’d been starting down the road of dementia anyway, but had still been sweet and kind, and I’d often visited with her in her living room. I visited her daily while she was in the hospital, and sometimes she knew me and sometimes she didn’t. Once she got moved into a nursing home, I determined to visit her every week, believing that someone should do so. I did so for perhaps three months, but the last half dozen times she was either asleep or she yelled at me and told me to leave. The last time she yelled at me, and even swore at me, another resident told me “that woman is hateful.” I explained it isn’t her, it’s dementia, and that she just lost her only son. But I finally decided my presence was causing her stress and not encouraging her, and reluctantly I too decided I just couldn’t keep visiting her.

    It’s a wicked, wicked disease and I am so sorry for all of you that it has taken this nasty turn.

  6. Thank you dear wanderers for your prayer covering. I know He has heard and is ministering in this situation. Janice your prayer was a sweet balm to my heart last night before I headed off to bed. And Cheryl thank you for your kindness and telling of your situation with your friend. I on one hand feel guilty for not wanting to go back to visit her yet feel that perhaps I will cause agitation. I would rather err on the side of caution so as not to cause her anxiety….again thank you…
