Waiting

We are waiting for more news. My sister-in-law was taken to the hospital on Sat night with chest pains and general weakness. She is now in ICU. She is fragile. She has been that way for some time. The loss of her husband this past January after a long struggle with cancer put much stress on her as well. Her own health issues have always been there (high blood pressure, kidney problems, diabetes) but she has battled them for years and well, I guess we all just accept them as part of her life. And she did too. I spoke with her at length on Sat and she seemed well. Of course, things happen in an instant, don't they? One moment, all is fine... the next... the glass is shattered. 

Having just lost your dad and now maybe your mom .... How do you take all that in and remain focused, and strong? Our niece is taking 'one day at a time'. What else can you do?

I guess we pray...

2 Corinthians 12:9,10 But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness."
