Since my last post, life has become even more stressful. My sister Sandy is still in the hospital and she's been told she has about 4 weeks left here on earth. This is emotionally stressful to all of us and the days have been exhausting for me as well. I can't even imagine how she feels and what this is doing to her emotionally (physically we can see the changes). We prepared her home yesterday for home hospice and today she will be transported via ambulance to her home to begin her journey to her "real" home with Jesus.
My old ways of coping (ie: eating) are coming through. I know that I'm not eating what I should or as timely as I should. I am eating a lot of junk and skipping meals or eating them very late and very irregular. I know in my heart that this will not make me feel better in the long run, but at the moment it makes me feel good to just eat JUNK. Crazy!
Today I am taking somewhat of 'day off' and having lunch with friends. Not going to the hospital unless something changes. My two other sisters will be greeting Sandy at home when she arrives. I will probably go over after my lunch to see if they need anything.
It's been a very rough couple of weeks. I pray that Sandy will find comfort and peace and that if this is her time, it will come quickly and with no complications. Please pray for her. Thanks!
