Plans Change

Well, we had planned a weekend with my parents in SC, but . . . things always seem to change. Ray's mother was admitted to the hospital last Wed. after two bad falls at her nursing facility. The nursing facility did not contact us until 5 hours after the incident and they did not deem it necessary to get her to the emergency room. Upon arrival, my father-in-law and ray's cousin demanded she be taken to the hospital. When they saw her she was still bleeding from her nose, bruised, swollen and obviously in a lot of pain. After being put off, they finally agreed to send her to the hospital. Frustrating and dangerous to say the least. So, needless to say, Mrs. Massengale will not return to that facility! We are trying our best to find a place close to us here where she can stay. Most places have waiting lists! Pray that something comes open. We are off again in a few minutes to look at places in Marietta. We know we need to trust that God will provide - just pray for us to have a little patience. We don't want to make the wrong decision. This is a tremendous responsibility for Ray . . . one that he'd not have any other way . . . still difficult.
