Update

Just a note to let everyone know, Papaw made it through the night and through today. That doesn't mean he's going to make it. He's passing slowly and it's hard to watch. My whole world has been wrapped around Mamaw and Papaw, especially since my Daddy died. (his parents passed when I was very young) Thanks to everyone who emailed and called with encouraging words and prayers!

This is one of the most stressful and difficult times in a person's life, to see someone they love suffer and/or pass away. Make sure you're taking care of YOU too- force yourself to eat at least a little something and drink fluids. And if you eat to console yourself (I do) dont' fret about it. The point is - be good to yourself, you need your strength and you need to be cared for too.

We're praying for you and Mamaw and Papaw. Call me if you need me- (home number) I'll be around this evening.

Know that your Papaw, Mamaw and your family is in our prayers! Aaron's Memaw went into the hospital while we were in Kaz and is still ill - it is hard when grandparents get so ill. Take a minute for yourself today, I am sure you are bearing a lot!

Blessings,
Julie
