My View For Last Hour And A Half

My view from our truck as I have been waiting for Ken outside the opthalmologist's. He just came out and told me he has to come back in an hour! We have no more errands so will just sit here until time for him to go back in. It's been a long and somewhat difficult day in light of the memorial for our friend's husband who succumbed to his Alzheimer's after four years of not being able to recognize her... Tears close to surface for me as I think about my own husband and wonder how much longer we will have together after 57 years of marriage.
What poignant thoughts. So sorry for your loss and especially for your friend - Alzheimer's is cruel. It's like bereavement every day while they still breathe.

@joansmor Thank you for those well wishes, Joan! Yes, all well! Ken had gotten a laser treatment to deal with early glaucoma. The extra hour's wait was because they wanted to check the eye again before we headed to our.home an hour away. Thanks again for your concern!

Cool shot but no fun waiting.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your friend. We've had two funerals at church this Spring with younger and unexpected deaths of two husbands and each time I feel for the wives as they think about a future by themselves. And then there's my own experience with covid. We never know what God has planned but we do believe He will give us the strength to get through whatever comes our way because He will be beside us through it all. I'm glad to hear the laser treatment was helpful and pray for both you and your friend as you grieve over the loss of this special man.
