    Update to the update, part 2

The business owns a building which, if it would sell, would provide the funds to settle many of the debts. The real estate market stinks to say the least. So, everyone, could you pray that someone would want to buy the building.

    I have GOOD NEWS- a potential buyer came to look at the building yesterday and came back today - so we are hoping. Please pray that either this might be "the one" or the financial situation might ease up somehow.

    On another note ... On Monday night I slipped on a wet wooden porch step and gave myself a right distal tibia fracture. (That round bump you have on the inside of your ankle, that's where it's broken.) So I have a short leg cast and crutches for a minimum of three weeks. Grrrrrrr! Just call me Cassie's gimpy mom. Crutches are *no fun*!

    So sorry to hear of all your troubles. Life sure can test us, sometimes. Keep your chin up and your eyes on the road

    Mine is a request to make the pain go away.

    9/3/13
    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    Papa

    Just an update for those that have been following.

    Papa/grandpa has been home for about a week. He is not doing well at all and I think these will be our final days with him. His body was rejecting the feeding tube again.

    They quit giving him medications, quit the feeding tube, quit the fecal tubes (diapers from now on,) and basically it's just a matter of time. They are giving him pain meds to make sure he is comfortable and at peace. I imagine he'll be gone within the next couple days and honestly, I am ready. He needs to go, it's his time. He's not getting any better and has no quality of life.


    Please think of him and wish him peace, and for my grandmother, who has been slowing losing her husband of 53 years.


    {{HUGS}} to you all and please remember to tell your family and friends you love them.

    ~Kay, Athena, Ace, Kiara, Mufasa, & Alice!

    It's this line that's the true heartbreaker. I'm so sorry about all this and wish I could remove this cup from you. Please know that I don't forget even if I don't always post. Your Grandpa and Grandma and you and yours are always on my prayer list.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    Hugs to you, Kay...I know you and your family will be a huge support to your grandmother, although you all have your own heartbreak to endure.

    Is Papa aware of what is happening? I hope you will be able to have another good visit or two.

    In similar situations, our own family was told that hearing is the last thing to go...so I am sure he will hear you, even if he doesn't respond.

    Prayers for peace to all of you.

    ((((hugs))) to you, Kay. As hard as this is, at least he is home and surrounded by his loving family. It's never easy, but is sounds like you know he is ready, and will be at peace in a better place. You & your family remain in my prayers.

    Prayers to you and your family Kay. Do you have hospice helping? They are very experienced with the end of life and easing the pain and helping the family too, I hope your family is not dealing with this alone.

    Thanks Kfamr for the signature!

    Please keep Bobcat in your thoughts. Yesterday, we found out he needs a pacemaker ASAP. Surgery is scheduled for Monday.

    Here's a photo of Bobcat comforting Pepper after a boo-boo.

    I got a voice mail from my Neuroligist saying she "thought" she saw a small
    aneurysm on my last Ocular CT scan. I am scheduled to have a Ct Angiogram
    of the brain next Thursday. Could you please say a few prayers that I get a
    good report from this. I want these migranes to stop, but sort of dread the
    processing to find the cause. Thanks. Liz.

    I've learned not to pray hard about things; it demonstrates a lack of faith. So I'll pray easy that all will be well and that your CT scan shows nothing but good health. Migraines, BE GONE! Keep the faythe.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    I'm sending thoughts and prayers out to those that need them.

    Elyse, I'm so sorry. A quick recovery to you.

    Liz: I hope there is nothing seriously wrong. {{{{{HUGS}}}}} to both of you and everyone else that needs one.

    Thanks Barry!

    Prayers & positive thoughts for all that need them. I got the results
    back from my test & yes I do have a brain aneurysm. The neurologist
    wants me to talk with a neuro surgeon in this same hospital about a
    certain treatment plan she thinks might help (plug) the wall of the aneurysm
    and prevent later rupture. Don't have an appt. yet, but I'll know more next
    week. Thank you for any prayers & good thoughts.
