I am considering something that would be sorta big in my family, a very dear friend of mine who is in her late 60's , is blind but otherwise more than capable of handling her own personal needs, is extrememly lonely since my daughter left the home where she lives.  Now this is a beautiful facility, but care wise, its not a place I would put my Mom.  She has no family other than us, her one and only brother lives far away, and frankly I think has forgotton about her. She wants so bad to leave their, but I know that totally being on her own, wouldn't work.  I got off the phone with her tonight and it is breaking my heart. I went through this with my Mom when it came to making decisions about my dear Grandma, and there were so many times that I wanted her to come live with me, I felt that was the least I could do.  Beverly, our friend, pays a huge amount of money to live where she is at, and she only has something like 60 for herself, which I feel is unfair, and she is miserable.  I spoke to my husband about it tonight and he is thinking about it, and I spoke with my son and his family tonight-they are all for it. Beverly wouldn't be in the way at all, and I could take her to her appointments and stuff and go do things at the senior building with her, maybe even take a day trip to see Mom, she wants me to come get her as soon as the weather breaks so she can spend the day outside with me.  She needs to walk everyday and so do I , so that would be a good thing.  I just feel like maybe God is nudging me into this, I have always wanted to pay it forward so too speak. Would you all just pray that we would be able to hear Gods wish in this.  Thank you so much!!! Sherri

Sherri, you will be in my thoughts and prayers.  I hope that God will lead you to the right decision.
