"Therefore, pray for the remnant that still survives" (2 Kings 19:4b). When mama was diagnosed with early cognitive impairment we were told that she would not get better. No one recovers from Alzheimer's. Now instead of praying for her health and physical needs I needed to pray for her emotional well being. But I didn't know what to pray for. Do I pray for healing? Do I pray specifically for mama's health - Lord please make her remember? With God's guidance I learned that I could pray for all of the above and also work to maintain what remains.
One of the cargivers strategies listed in the book, "My Mom Has Alzheimer's", is to play games with your loved one that they may have enjoyed in the past, but don't attempt to teach a new game. I tried to teach mama RummiKub, should have just played scrabble with her instead. Lesson learned and many more to come I'm sure.
My grandma and I used to color in a color book. We would sign our names on the page when we finished. Something so simple sure made precious memories.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kim. I had bought her a couple of Bible story color books, a box of crayons and some color pencils. She hasn't done anything with them yet, but I like your idea of sitting down with her and together maybe color a few pages and sign our names. Thanks so much for your help. Love ya.
DeleteIt’s obvious some patients with HIV are being enslaved to the antiviral and other supplementary Orthodox medicine just to help suppress the virus and not cure it permanently. I have been with the virus for years until I was introduced by a friend who also narrated her story online on how she was cured of Genital Herpes after using Dr James Herbal Mix Medicine. I was cured of HIV/AIDS after the usage of strong herbal mix medicine Dr, James prepared for me. All thanks to Dr James, for healing me. I've seen the great importance of natural herbs and roots and the wonderful work they have done in people's lives.
