Please Pray for my Grandmother

My eighty-eight year old Grandma is in her last days. I wasn't going to say anything here on my blog, because I don't feel like it's my story to tell, but late last night I decided that I've been being stupid.

I've got wonderful online friends who I know would pray for her if I just asked. So I'm asking.

I know she can't be with us for much longer. Her kidneys and heart are failing. She's home now, with her dog and her husband of sixty-eight years.  I'm praying for them both, and that Grandma will have moments of clear thinking, because there are still things that she wants to get done, And I'm praying that when she does leave us, it's peacefully.

  10. My heart goes out to you! I know exactly how you feel. We lost my husband's father the week after Thanksgiving and I too wanted to mention it on the blog, feeling guilty for not doing so, but feeling guilty to drag down the spirit of the season out in Blogland. I did finally mention it in the end as you have. Sometimes we just need prayer and there is no harm in asking! God bless and you and your family. I hope things are going ok in this new transition for you all...
