Everything Is Going to Be All Right

Alzheimer's caregivers are being led closer to Jesus. Learning to trust in His love brings blessings when spiritual eyes are open. Two newspaper reporters blessed with marriage and a son. The journey with Alzheimer s started even before diagnosis in 2016. Blinding storms of worry with waves of fear and sorrow drown caregivers who believe burdens are ours alone. Writing this book between nursing home visits, my plan was to care for Nell at home. Drained of all strength as her abilities rapidly vanished, pleading prayers led me to know that the nursing home was His answer. Blessed to learn it is not our strength that carries us through the storm. We surrender in love. Jesus invites us to share the burden. Blessings guide each day with divine strength and peace. Led on a faith journey of understanding Biblical truth, we were drawn to a church founded on the authority of Scripture. His Word is truth. Truth sets us free. In the last stages of Alzheimer s, Nell is bedbound. Words are mostly incoherent. Peace remains strong in Nell s heart, often sparking smiles breaking into laughter. God is glorified. Contentment even while the storm still rages. Living in gratitude, peace fills our hearts with confident trust that everything will be all right.
