"I have a precious story I want to share with everyone about this precious lady who was having to deal with the confusing disease Altheimers. Some are embrassed of the disease and do not want to discuss it, but I find it another piece of knowledge we all can learn about to help others. She didnt understand what was wrong as did anybody else who had the experience dealing with the disease ALTHEIMERS. I cared for Mrs. Walding for a shortime, and I learned many things spending time with her. NOW, I WANT TO SHARE A LOVELY STORY ABOUT HER. This day, I was very sad. I was dealing with something that made me sad and I cryed. She and I were sitting quietly, and she saw my tears and broken heart, and she ask me, honey are you alright I replied I was fine, I am just sad. She recognized my heart was trouble, and she came over and sat by me. This interaction from her was a blessing to me. That evening I prepared dinner for us, and I usually said the blessing. I knew she was very concerned about me, and I ask Mrs.Walding if she prayed. She said, YES MAM I DO I then ask her if she would like to say the blessing tonight before we eat. Mrs. Walding reached for my hand, and she held it, and she began praying for the day and the blessings, for her children, and then she ask GOD, whatever was breaking my heart for him to come into my life and heal the troubles I have which was making me sad. I was so impressed with her, because she would be confused at times, but many hours had past since the earlier hours of the day, and when we sat down to dinner and I ask her if she prayed, she remember me being sad earlier this day. It took me by surprise because of the hours which had already past and she remember my heart being sad. She was a precious lady, and sometimes she couldnt sleep and she would ask me to come and set with her for a while. I did, and I ask her if she would like for me to read the BIBLE to her, she said, Oh yes, I would love that. I got a Bible and I read to her. To the 3 daughters and the other members of her family. She loved you all so much, and she wanted to be with you all when the confusion attacked her mind. You are lucky, you didnt have to spend many days with her when she was so alone inside her mind, but these are the times she needed to see a face that she recognized. Mrs. Walding is one of the most precious ladies andI was honored to know her. She knew her Lord and she is now resting in his arms. No more pain or confusion. She is with her husband she spoke of so many times to me, and her son. Girls, since I last saw you I have learned so much more about the bible and our LORD, and I do pray for you all to be reunited in heaven some day. The miles to see her will be none. She will be waiting for you, and she is also here with you now. Be still and Listen She was always so HAPPY when she knew her daughters were coming to see her. I am very happy Mrs. Walding is now with people she knew and loved and there isnt anymore emptiness in her heart and mind. PRAISE THE LORD PRAYERS AND BLESSINGS TO THE FAMILY. I can say it was a blessing to spend the days I did with this beautiful lady."
