Take a deep breath and sit quietly for a few minutes.The answers and the strength will come.Only you know what is best for you and Rollie,so use that as your guide.You can choose the amount of care that is right for you and he.

This was my message from God and when I understood, it took away my fear. Blessings...........Cheryl
P.S.I will be up late tonight.If you get scared, pop on here and I will hold your hand for awhile.
I'm here, sending you all love and strength for this.......it is hard but it is doable......what strohm says is beautiful and true.
I know the fear you are feeling and all the mixed emotions. You are a deeply loving wife and life partner, have given Rollie everything and more.......Remember that as you walk here.....
With you in thought and prayer.....

You will be fine even though I know it is scary for you. What Strohn said is absolutely beautiful and the total truth...when you can let go of Rollie and turn him over to God with total faith that he will take care of him, you will feel a sense of relief. Just be there for him, let him know you are there with him and I'm sure that will comfort him.
hugs.../Carolyn
And, I'm saying my prayer for you.
