  1. This is David, pammie's husband. I am grieved to let all of you know that Pam took her last breath Monday, Nov 5th at 3:21 in the afternoon. Her final hours were quite peaceful, surrounded by family at home, where she wanted to be.

    She really appreciated all of her lcsc friends and prayed for many of you by name in our evening prayers.

    I thank all of you for your encouragement to her.

    She was sweet and very, very thankful for all of her many blessings to the very end. That helps so much. Cancer is a dreadfully painful disease and no matter how your disease progresses, thanksgiving for all of your blessings makes it easier to face. She left this world with a great love for her family and a great love for her savior, Jesus.

    I pray that all of you have or find the peace she had.

    Thank you,

    David

  2. Sick with some kind of infection for 2 weeks in June, then offf to a family reunion and then back to meet our grandaughter born while we were in the mountains. Been a busy summer. pammie

  3. Being the caregiver is very stressful. Do not feel guilty. My husband is my driver and so many other things since my vision became impaired . I hate to ask him to do anything but have to. He always does it with a wonderful attitude. One thing he does that is a big stress reliever is play golf at least once a week. Perhaps Hawkeye you could find some kind of exercise to do several times a week as a stress reliever. Would be good for you and your wife to spend some hours apart during the week. God's blessings on you and your wife. pammie

  4. have bronchitis right now. Taking the ususal meds for it. Very common ailment for me over tne past 20 yrs. Praying for a quick recovery. pammie

  5. Melinda, I think of you often and keep you and your kids in my prayers. So many people have good but misguided intentions in what they say to someone who has lost a mate or child.They just say what they have always heard or think is appropriate. Amazing the thoughtless words we say at times. So we look beyond the words and appreciate the person for thinking of the family. Certainly not always easy but a must for focusing on the future. We need compassionate people like you in nursing. Our son-in-law just got pinned for his RN this month and we are so proud of him and thankful. So give it all you've got and touch the lives of those who are in need. God bless you Melinda. pammie

  6. My uncle lost his wife last Oct. He does a lot of the things mentioned, repeating, forgetting, etc. Part of it is the grieving process and of course he is very lonely. A doc needs to assess the situation. Antidepressents can be very helpful. Often people don't realize how depressed they are so with lots of love and gentleness he needs to get some medical care. pammie

  7. God bless you Don. You and Lucie have been a wonderful example of perseverance and steadfastness in times of crisis. Perhaps God was preparing you Don to minister in this new way. None of us can know the mind of God and how the creator works.I will continue to keep you in my prayers and plan on meeting up with you and Lucie in heaven. pammie

  8. Sorry you found this site through cancer diagnosis. There are so many supportive people here for you, A lovely group of people. Don't know that any of us know what to expect of life. But one thing we have in common is hope. Never give up hope for a cancer cure, for lung cancer or any cancer. When i was diagnoised my husband reminded people that other things might kill us before cancer, such as a car wreck. None of us are promised tomorrow. We live one day at a time. I am almost to three years from point of diagnosis so feel God has been very gracious to us. Even if tomorrow doesn't come for me, I am covered in God's grace. Be informed about different treatments available. Ask your docs any and everything. Most of the symptoms or side effects you have will have been experienced by at least one other person and you can go check out how they dealt with it through a search. There are several really savvy computer people here who can help you. I can barely turn on a computer but others are very adept. God bless you scman. Will be prayinmg for you. pammie

  9. Know you will miss your mom terribly. I can't help but feel so much peace and comfort from her. She was such a steady calm person always thinking about the eternal. She KNEW where real life is. My memeory is one of sweet peace. God bless you and your family. pammie

  10. Dana, I am deeply sorry to here about your mom Joanie. She was always positive, hopeful, encouraging and looking forward with hope and joy. Will be praying for you and all your family. May God grant you peace. pammie
