Marilyn shared a scripture passage with us that help lift me out of the Monday morning doldrums. Ps. 31:11-12 "You turned my wailing into dancing: You removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, that my heart may sing to you and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give you thanks forever."
It's been a long weekend, Debbie continues to see her body shutting down. The connections between her thoughts and the muscles in her throat and mouth that enable her to share those thoughts has broken down, which is a little frustrating for her and for us. She rarely makes eye contact but we know she hears the things we say as sometimes tries to respond but just isn't able to articulate. I know there are a lot of friends who would like to stop by, but we're at the point where that is just not possible. We are so thankful for all the texts and emails we receive that give us encouragement and affirmation of how much Deb is loved. I try to take as many phone calls as possible but sometimes I just don't have the energy.
Thank you all for your constant thoughts and prayers, we are so blessed by all of you.
