GOD GRANT ME SERENITY
Dear fellow stroke survivors and caregivers. My caregiver, my beloved Jerry, passed October 23, 2011 at 8:30 pm. He was without pain and was ready to meet his Maker. I believe God led me to purchase long-term care insurance back in 1997 and they provided for Jerry and I will continue to have it until I get my strength independence back. On Jerry's deathbed, I promised I would work hard; I have a long way to go. I have a lot of friends and caregivers to help me in my continued Jerry. The passing of my best friend, lover, caregiver and soul-mate of 27 years has been devastating. He was determined and brave and felt he would beat the lung cancer diagnosed only 4 months ago. It was not to be. God is in charge and God and now Jerry's spirit will go on to give me the strength, courage and wisdom I need to get back. I want to drive again and have hope and faith. The memorial is tomorrow and after I have grieved a little while longer I hope to start joining chat more often. I have not forsaken StrokeNet through my recent sadness and trials. Love, Leah
