Today my grandmother was placed in a fine nursing home some thirty minutes from my grandfather's house.  It is a much more pleasant environment than the senior center in Seaford; that particular facility was one of the reasons my Pop-Pop had been so opposed to nursing homes. 

Pop-Pop reports that Mom-Mom's room is spacious, the facility smells clean and is in excellent repair, and the staff is pleasant and well-equipped to handle her round-the-clock needs.  He saw residents, many of whom are in various stages of Alzheimer's Disease themselves, being treated with dignity and respect.  He is permitted to take meals with Mom-Mom and to bring her whatever snacks and treats from home he might wish, and laundry is washed on-site, free of charge. 

Pop-Pop is well pleased with the situation and looked like an immense weight had been lifted from his shoulders when Jay and I had dinner with him this eve.  He does not think his wife of 60 years has much longer, but he feels that he has done the best for her that was possible.  It's really good to see my grandfather in better spirits.

 As much as I hate to be the bearer of bad tidings, I must unfortunately do so now. Many of you who have talked to pleasure know how much she loved her father. At about 830 this evening I received the news that her father died tonight. Her uncle called me on my cell while I was at work, and told me that Ron had stopped breathing and was taken to the hospital, then calle dback a few minutes later to tell me that he didn't make it. At this time I am still trying to reach pleasure to tell her, she is out of town and very difficult to get hold of atm.
 Ron was a master mechanic and a veteran of 3 tours in Vietnam. It was my pleasure to know him for about 13 years, and he was the best father-in-law I could have asked for. He will be very sorely missed. Please remember pleasure and her family in your prayers and thoughts, this is a very difficult time for them and I know they will welcome all the prayers and positive thoughts they can get right now.

My thoughts and prayers go out to pleasure.


However, do you think it is wise to post this information without her knowledge? I know I would not wish to... by chance.... gain access to the boards and discover such a loss this way.

Now that I am no longer worried pleasure was going to receive a shock coming to these boards - so I hesitated to respond, in the event the message about her father was removed - I extend my condolences.  There is never anything to say in a situation like this, except to offer the blessing that he did not linger in his passing and the hope that he felt no pain.  I am here if you need to talk, sis. -hugs-

I don't ask for much, but I'm asking for some prayers for my family, particularly my dad. My mom called me this morning to inform me that my uncle, one of my dad's younger brothers (at the age of 73), had a massive heart attack last night and did not make it. I am worried about my dad now, since he is not in good health.

thanks
Kim
