It totally touched my heart! I had no idea you were dealing with so much. Have you read Colleen Carroll Campbells, "My Sister's the Saints"? Colleen documents her love and loss through her own father's alzheimer's diagnosis. This might be a great read for you...someone who has walked in your shoes and can provide solace through the Faith and Saints.

It's so sad yet touching how two people can spend their whole lives together and not function after one has passed. I wish your parents happiness and love for their future. God Bless!

And now that I am back among the "connected" I wanted to stop here first and tell you how much I loved this post. Your parents' sweet relationship is a beautiful reminder of the commitments we make in marriage and the eternal bond we have with our spouses. Thank you so much for sharing your parents with all of us. They probably have no idea how much they've touched all of us just with that one little moment in their lives. <3Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09787528604251936976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-830473372238505362.post-34862581142903424862013-08-20T04:30:12.079-07:002013-08-20T04:30:12.079-07:00Oh Billie Jo.

Thank you for sharing the reminder of faithful love in our wonderful vocation. <br />My grandparents are quickly declining and this summer has been tough, especially for my dad who tended to them most of the time. Grandpa has moved some place temporary, but the time is very near when the nursing home will have to be chosen. My grandma is still at home, but everyone fears that the decision will have to be made quite soon for her as well. They are in their early nineties and have been married 69 years. Heart wrenching moments lying ahead.<br /><br />Thank you for capturing the cherished memory with us and sharing your heart. Sending you a quick prayer and a hug, dear friend.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16604810218733272554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-830473372238505362.post-16194799444127438062013-08-19T13:12:23.165-07:002013-08-19T13:12:23.165-07:00Oh, I am crying too.

Continue to Cherish each moment, even the difficult ones.
