POWER BEGINS WITHIN! Expressing it is not meant to cause discomfort in, for or towards others! -

Matthew 7:12 - So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.

BE BLESSED!

CHECK ON YOUR LOVED ONES IN NURSING HOMES


If your loved one is in a nursing home, don't take for granted he or she is being cared for in accordance to the law. As cuts are being made and the economy continues to deteriorate, there will be more cases of abuse reported. My own Mother has been a victim of abuse on numerous occasions, and that was when I was visiting nearly daily for three years. For the past two years, I have not been able to be a secondary caretaker for her since my own health has deteriorated.

I THANK GOD for a support network where on average she has a quality, loving visit or two during most weeks. Even though I wish I wish could be more, it just can't be right now. My goal is to get her out of there and I pray daily it's soon. How it will happen - I don't know but I HAVE FAITH. It hasn't happened yet and in May it will be five years. I STILL HAVE FAITH! As I WORK towards the goal - I HAVE FAITH!

My Mother will be 79 next month. I am grateful the stroke she had did not take her life, but know what her story is.  She has been through so much and deserves so much more, but we as many other families just cannot afford to care for our loved ones at home. There are too many instances, when insidious acts of abuse are committed, even when family is committed to their loved ones.
