So taking care of people is what I love to do, and when I take care of them it is to get them better even if it is only one day better then the rest. So there is this gentle man who is older I would say about 80's Kind man, so easy going, I took care of him over the weekend (Halloween weekend) and well he made himself a trip to the ICU due to respiratory compromise. (He went to the ICU sometime during the week) His wife is sooo sweet, and his family in general so kind. I went in today to say hello before I left, because I heard they made him a DNR#3 which is where they only provide comfort measures and give morphine and such. well he was a different man asleep probably to never wake up. I more likely said good bye then hello to him and his family. His breaths were shallow, like a wave coming to shore then quickly back out to sea. Pretty soon there will be no more waves. I gave his wife and daughter a hug told them to take care of themselves....
Dear Jesus,
Please be with this family, be there comfort, help them to see your kindness in the midst of tragedy. Bethe amazing, loving God you are, be that to them.
amen.
not only was my day ridiculously insane but I ended it saying goodbye.
Seeing his wife with teary eyes almost made me start crying. My heart aches for them.
Peace to you
