Landscape
By Roy Lessin,
Co-founder DaySpring Cards
Your life's like a landscape and God has the brush.
The work is in progress, He's not in a rush.
Each stroke has a purpose, nothing's by chance.
To see all His wisdom takes more than a glance.
Notice the sunbeams that shine on the dew --
Even the clouds can't keep them from view.
Look at the pathway that turns at the hill --
Its course will reveal what's next in His will.
The stream that's flowing with water so blue
Is bringing down blessings meant just for you.
The trees that are planted close to the stream
Will bring forth more fruit than you've ever seen.
The bird in the nest with mouth opened wide
Is just a reminder that God will provide.
Now look at the sheep in the meadow that's near
And notice the Shepherd that keeps them from fear.
He's brought them to pastures which give forth the best,
That cool and refresh, and keep them in rest.
The eagle above, that soars o'er the gale
Is God's way of saying, "My strength will not fail."
That part of the painting which now seems unclear
Will take on new meaning with each passing year.
So trust God to work in His own perfect way
And rejoice in the beauty He's painting today.
And I am sure that God, who began the good work within you, will continue His work until it is finally finished on that day when Christ Jesus comes back again. Philippians 1:6 NLT
I hope this encourages your heart.

You folks need to get the Book: Cures They Do Not Want You To Know About. He has a new book out that might help you. The FDA will not let us say its a cure, but its worth a try. I have tried a lot of this stuff in his book and have found it to be true. I wish you folks all the best during this time. If you have any more question, please feel free to email me.

I pray not only for your sister, but for the family as well, because this will be harder on them than it will on her. My lovely step-mother was taken by AD and at first, she was terrified. She knew what was ahead of her because her father and two sisters had died from it. But once the disease took hold and began diminishing her capacity to think, her fears left her. For a few brief months, she was able to be with us, and we were able to enjoy her company. As she slipped farther into oblivion, she didn't know us, and became less and less able to care for any of her needs, including feeding and hygiene. At that point, she was placed in a care facility, who were wonderful to her. We visited often - she didn't know who we were, but she seemed happy that someone was there. We also visited other residents, who didn't have family come and visit them. They, too, didn't know us, but also seemed to enjoy a few friendly words.
It's difficult to accept, but your sister will slip away peacefully. This will be harder for you than for her, and so I shall pray for each of you.

how about her insurance company (?) do their job and allow her the latest medicine in Alzheimer's treatment instead?
do it.... it sure can help, especially in the early stages.
and make sure if it's possible for her to get a therapist.
