I really need my friends right now

Thank you too Diana and Ruth.

Ruth, like your new avatar! Robert invite you to a Pampered Chef party yet? He wants me to become a consultant. 

No invitation as yet, Cathy.  But he's way over on the other side of Phx from me.  Probably about 40 miles.  Are you considering becoming a consultant?  I've been to Pampered Chefs parties, although it's been many years now.  They have great stuff.

My dad is not doing good. If you don't know by now he has Alzhiemer's and Parkinsons' diseases. He just started shaking violently again as he did last summer. He is worn out emotionally and physically. Please pray that Heavenly Father takes him home where he will no longer suffer. I will miss him terribly but I cannot be selfish about this.

My mom is so tired, stressed and has some chronic illnesses of her own she is dealing with. Please pray that Heavenly Father will give her the strength and peace to get through all of this.

And as for me, I am living in a home where no one wants me, treats me like I am their maid, is disrespectful and abusive towards me and couldn't care less about what happens to me. I am so tired and stressed I just want to run away from home but I have no place to go. I just want some peace. And maybe a few prayers and hugs would help, please? 

Prayers and hugs are on there way for you, and for your parents, Cathy.

I watched my mum waste away with Alzheimer's, a terribly sad way to go. I lost her eight years before she died, and saw her death as a release to a far better place.

May you be comforted as you work through all of these things, and know that we are with you in spirit.
