My grandmother.

I don't believe I've ever posted in the prayer forum before, but I believe now would be an apt time to do so.


So, today, my grandmother on my mom's side passed away after a 15 year long battle with Alzheimer's disease (in fact, she was in the very last stages of the disease and bedridden. It's rare for most patients with the disease to last that long).
Since she was in the last stages and hadn't known who any of us were for at least the past 10 years (that's how the disease works if any of you are familiar with it), the effect of her death hasn't hit me too hard. But I do ask that you would please pray for my mom and her side of the family as they go through all the funeral preparations and such.
Especially pray for my mom, since my grandma had been living with us for the past 15 years, my mom is taking the largest hit from this; more than her other siblings. And things in our house will be changing quite a bit because of this.

Thank you very much.

I am so sorry goldenspines. My Grandfather had Alzheimer's disease so I understand some of the process. I will definitely pray for you and your family. Please hang in there.

So sorry about that Goldy. I'll be praying.
My grandpa has alzheimers/dimensia and has no idea who I am. It's just a matter of time before he goes too.
