    My Grandson is asking his Pa for help

    in GRIEF

    Posted

    Hi Everyone,

    Was at a ball game tonight watching my youngest grandson Brad play ball and my daughter-in-law asked me is my oldest grandson Andy has said anything to me about what he has been doing. Looking puzzled, I said, no, what are you talking about. She said two weeks ago, at school, they were having a play on Easter and Jesus. Andy wanted so to play Jesus he told him mom that he asked his PA, up in heaven, to help him get the part. Just as he asked him, his teacher called his name and said he would play Jesus. If that wasn't enough, he had a ball game last Saturday and wanted to get a hit real bad, again he told his mother, he asked PA to help him and he got that hit. Today at school, they have some kind of a game throughout the whole 8 grades with numbers being called and candy being given out if your number is called. Today, he told his mother, that he asked PA to have his number 8 called for both him and his brother Brad to get candy and low and behold, unknown to Andy, who had number 8, Brad also had number 8 in his classroom and 8 was called for the winning number to receive candy.

    I know Buddy loved those boys, so I guess he is somehow helping Andy, if not, what is happening???????? This is really deep.....Tears are flowing...

    Beresa,

    There is no right or wrong way now. There is only God's way. If God is ready for your father then so be it. If not, he will have more chances after he rebounds from this last episode.

    It is not easy to go through what is happening right now. I know your father is happy to be home as my Buddy was. For most people, home is where one is the most comfortable at a time like this. Being surrounded by the ones you love.

    I pray for you and your family.

    Well Shirley, at 2PM tomorrow I will be home and if you want I will toast with you. Of course I will have to use Coke for afraid one glass of anything just might put me under at 2PM. I will be thinking of you.

    Our 47th will be on the 26th of this month and I am not looking ahead to that day. If I can I will try to sleep the 24 hours away. Of course I know that will not work but maybe I could have a whole bottle of your wine and that may help me sleep those 24.

    I have tears forming right now for I know how bad tomorrow will be for you. Will say it again, sure wish we all lived nearby to help each through the bad days.

    When people say to me "I know how you feel", they may have lost a loved one, not a spouse, and I say right back as kind as I can be, "no, you can't possibly know what it feels like until you have lost your spouse whom you loved all your life." It is just not the same. It is the worse thing possible that can happen to anyone who really loved they partner and their partner them. We are not the first nor will we be the last to lose our spouses but for each of us that day was the worst day of our lives. We will all recover and endure but our life will never be the same. Some of us will go on and find another love and that is good for it will start a new life of joy and love but others of us will remain alone and that will just be the way it is. WE WILL SURVIVE with a broken heart......

    Debi, I don't know how I missed this post but saw it today.

    We must all live for today for you have heard this and said this a thousand times also, - - no one knows tomorrow.

    We all, with or without cancer in our bodies, cannot read the future. All we can do is enjoy the day and plan for tomorrows outings. If we don't get there tomorrow we sure as heck won't know it now will we....

    Just get your bag packed and ready for our trip.

    Margaret,

    I can't talk about working for I was retired when my dear Buddy came down with lc plus he was much older then yours also.

    Did your husband ever file for Social Security disability. If not he needs to. There is a 5 full month waiting period before payments begins. If I remember right, he became disabled in Jan. 2004 so that would mean he would be eligible for payment july payable aug, 2004. This is just a thought. Or, maybe he has already filed.

    I might have been able to work parttime with my Buddy being ill, but know full time would have never worked. Or maybe 2nd or 3rd shift work might have worked out.

    Good luck with whatever you chose...
