Revisiting – No Fight Left ~ Only Love

emyloom 3 Comments

In this month of love I am reblogging this post about one of the last sweet visits I had with my mom.

It was a January visit and I came down because she had a brief hospital stay. When she came back to the nursing facility, she had to be an isolation because Covid protocols were still being practiced.

I am so thankful I had these few days with her, even though visits were limited to one hour because of Covid.

After this visit, I came home and did not return until Mother’s Day in May. When I saw her, she had declined dramatically.

We had no conversations, and she was in so much pain and agony. It was hard to see her suffer.

This one day in January was a beautiful final chapter of the era of dementia. It was a healing day for me and it helped me walk with my mother through her final days.

What’s on Your Mind

I logged into Facebook this morning and there in shadowy letters was a question prompting me to respond: What’s on your mind?

My mind is on the hostages in Gaza. Hundreds of murderers, rapists and terrorist are being release to gain their freedom.

These prisoners are released from Israeli jails well-fed and in good health. But the hostages? They are injured, starved, abused and tortured. How is this happening in 2025 when just 70 years ago the world proclaimed Never Again? Never Again!!!

The hostages that were released last week came with news of this young man (see link). He is one of many remaining in this hamas hell.

Still no news of Shiri Bibas and her two small children. I pray they are alive. What is the reason for continuing to hold such innocent helpless children.

These terrorists have perfected cruelty. Cruelty and evil that is impossible to understand.

My hearts is grieving for them all.
