2019 isn't turning out to be too good for my family and people who I know and love...
my Mom passed on January 5th., aged 88
Her older sister Lois passed, Saturday the 16th of March, aged 90
Mom's sister Lily, is in a Nursing Home with a prognosis of 60 days at the most, she is 85.
Mom's other sister Lucy, is also in an Alzheimer's Unit, and also has a prognosis of 60 days or less, she is 86.
If this comes to pass, my mom and her three sisters who are still alive will have all passed within a 4 to 5 month period this year... the youngest sister Laura, passed in Nov 2015, courtesy of Obama care.. when she was on the table and under anesthesia waiting for the doctor to show up...on a life saving operation she needed.....turned out the Doctor never showed, due to the fact that he didn't know until the last hour, that my aunt was from West Virginia and she was taken to the closest hospital in Virginia.. under Obama Care the doctor wouldn't get paid for the surgery... so he just didn't show up and let my aunt die in the recovery room.
Now I just got an email, from a good friend and a former Girl Friend I came real close to tying the knot with back in 1990... 6 weeks ago, her 35 year old daughter was diagnosed with stomach cancer.... she was responding well to chemo, and then evidently things took a turn for the worst.... she went into hospice last Wednesday.. and then passed away suddenly today, March 19.....
Kristina Krueger, RIP... she leaves behind a husband and 4 children between the age of 9 y/o and 2 years old..
The latter one is hitting me the hardest, due to Kristina being so young and leaving a husband with 4 children to take care of.... her mother is falling apart.. having lost her husband to cancer 3 years ago....
Kathy is in my prayers....
I guess when its your time, Its your time....
May Aunt Lois, and Kristina Krueger rest in peace...
and prayers for the comfort of my Aunts Lucy and Lily.....
and finally prayers for their families and all the love ones they leave behind...
The Good Lord is going to have to explain his reasoning to me one of these days....some things like this, I just don't understand what he was thinking....
Amen....

Seafire, Sorry for the loss of your family members...Their age doesn’t really matter in the moment, but hopefully your mom and her sisters all had good lives. Maybe them all departing so closely in time means something. As for the young mother being taken by cancer is just sad and unfair...😎

We in our finite minds may never understand why God does what He does, nor does He owe us an explanation. It's best to thank Him for all things, stay away from bitterness and lean on knowing that whatever He does, it's for the best. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 Romans 9:20-23

Seems like this stuff comes in waves as we age. My mom will turn 90 soon and I've been watching the slow down the last couple of years.

Seafire, This would be a huge blow to anyone. Praying for You and Your Family! Though not easy, be the “cornerstone” for your family. Stay strong my friend! memtb

Seafire: So sorry to hear of this bad year befalling you and yours John!
Stay strong and remember and look forward to the better times.
My beloved 93 year old mother passed away less than a year ago as well and it still hurts me.
But this pain has been diminished by the more and more frequent happy memories I recall of and with her.
I am sad that such events have seemed to pile up on you this year so far.
Persevere!
Life is such a wonderful gift, but sadly it does have an expiration date!
Important lesson there.
