The last wedding I performed some years ago was marrying my mother to my stepfather, Doug. Like most marriages, it came with built-in sorrows. Doug is declining in health, and my mother carries a heavy load as his chief nurse. In her favor is her years as an RN. Against her is her own aging.
Recently Doug fell and cut his head. It appeared he was nearly gone with hallucinations and non-responsive behavior. Then he seemed to recover, but not completely. The hospital will be testing whether a therapist can help him with walking in the coming days. My Mom got a much needed break when Doug's family showed up to help a bit.
So the request is for Doug to recover and for Mom to know how to carry on. They reside in Harlingen, TX -- very far away from us. May the Lord provide.
