Hope you all enjoyed this post.
I included a lot of presidents quotes,
from all political parties.
We must honor and respect each and every
president the people elect...
otherwise what is a Democracy.
I fear this dear country of mine
is heading towards Communism.
My favorite quote was from Grover Cleveland,
who was a Democrat.
We should all heed his advise.
Also to paraphrase Mark 3:25
A house divided will always fail."
In other news,
early Sunday morning my mom
had an episode.
Her vitals went extremely high once again.
Since then they have not been able
to manage to keep them down
without adding medicine into her IV.
They did 3 tests to see if they found the issue...
but all came back negative.
She would not eat breakfast or lunch yesterday.
Day and night she just sleeps,
which is not a good thing.
A cardiac doctor has been called in now.
She apparently has plaque build up
on her aortic valve...and they will not do surgery.
They did an EKG and waiting on
the results of this test now.
We are getting very concerned she will not make it.
Bob and I are headed out soon
to get me some new tires for my car.
Will go see my mom afterwards.
God Bless America Blessings To All!

I loved every picture and enjoyed every quote!
ReplyDeleteCould it be that your mother's mind and body are ready to go? As much as I miss my mother, I know it was true for her as she was in pain that even the pain meds worked no longer, had other health issues and missed my step-father. My heart goes out to you and family.
I would enjoy sitting down and talking about this country of ours with you, I agree 100% with your thoughts. I am praying for it to turn around... but golly, I just do not know.
ReplyDeleteI am praying for your mom and family.
I enjoyed each quote and photo.
I appreciated all these quotes and fear for our country as you do.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry about your mom. Have they brought up hospice? They were a huge blessing for my Dad and he lived a year after being admitted to their services.
I like those quotes - those were the days. I am worried about our country as well. Wake up America. I am glad you are spending time with your mom while she is here.
ReplyDeleteLove your patriotic displays and the quotes. I agree, the state of our country and which way it is heading is of great concern. Prayers for your mom and all that she is going through.

ReplyDeleteEnjoyed all you pictures and quotes.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about your mom.
Great quotes! I also love the Ronald Reagan quote, "trust but verify". Your patriotic decorating is perfection. God bless America. Like you, I fear we are heading towards socialism and eventually communism. Those thinking it is a great idea need to look at other countries who have tried it. It NEVER works.
ReplyDeletePrayers for your mom!!! It is so hard, but thankfully they are looking for answers.
