Smile, Though Your Heart is Breaking

You'll have to forgive me for having no post today. As I've stated in past entries, I've been helping my mother-in-law for the past two weeks while she has been in the hospital. I have been watching over Nan (my husband's grandmother). Last night was a really rough night for her and she was complaining of being cold and not being able to breathe.

She went to the hospital where we found out that she had a fever of 101 and pneumonia. I stayed behind with my MIL, because she just had knee surgery and can't really get around. It was truly a rough night of emotions and sleep was next to none for all of us. Nan's fever is gone now and they are taking care of the chest congestion. At 91 years of age, they are taking this all very seriously and giving her great care.

With all of that said, I can't promise an entry for tomorrow either. I won't deny that I have been an emotional wreck, but that's what I do to myself after something like this happens. So I'd like to take some moments for myself and find my footing again. Thanks for understanding! Prayers, best wishes, and positive thoughts for Nan are always appreciated. Love to you all!

Thinking great thoughts for Nan, I know how it is when older people get things like this and it's so stressful.

Take care of yourself also.
