OvercomerPrayers: 129Requests: 40
May 11, 2022 at 6:36 amWe are in the stage of life where we are having to make decisions for our parents and take care of them. My husband’s mother is 82. My parents are 78. The most challenging right now is caring from my mother in-law. We live 4 hours a part and care from a distance. She is very strong willed and private. She has been diagnosed with dementia and has had multiple mini-strokes. Her brain comes snd goes. For the most part she is still taking care of herself. She lives alone. We have paid caregivers that are with her from 5-9pm daily. They make sure she eats one meal and drinks some water. They give her the daily medication. I handle her finances and pay the bills, doctors appointments, scheduling caregivers, ordering groceries and prescriptions etc. I monitor activities through blink cameras. The newest challenge is my husband’s step-sister who lives next door. She has been participating on a small level helping with mail, troubleshooting phones and remotes when those get confusing. We usually communicate through email a few times a week. Recently she has been acting snarky about how the finances are being managed. This is causing me great anguish. I do not want out family to be torn apart over finances. I have seen and heard stories of how inheritances can cause ugly heads to rear. Please pray for me to continue to make good decisions managing her money and taking care of her. Pray for a turn back to open communication between family members. This process is really stressful in the best of terms but when families are at odds it is just heartbreaking. Pray for God’s divine intervention in this situation and that He will continue to show me the way. Thank you!

May 11, 2022 at 8:02 amPraying for you during these difficult times with aging parents. My family went through similar challenges about ten years ago, with one sister causing much angst and disruption by accusing another sister of mismanaging finances (which was untrue). Praying that you and your family are able to trust in God during these times. Lift these worries up to Him, ask the Holy Spirit to give you the much needed strength, patience and kindness. The Lord is good; He will help guide your decisions going forward. 🙏

May 11, 2022 at 10:15 amAmen, Lord to this Dabber’s caring heart. I pray this sister in law will repent of causing stress where none was needed. Bless this family with a wise place for the 82 year old mom to live. Be glorified in all this. Keep this Dabber calm. May she “Keep a Quiet Heart” as Elisabeth Elliot said. In Jesus name
