Mom has
moved to the rehab facility to get her on her feet again.
She
is not happy at rehab. They are making
her get up and do therapy that she doesn’t like doing. They are making her follow a routine that is not
her own. They want her to get out of her
darkened room and socialize with other patients.
The
facility is providing nutritional meals.
Friendly CNAs are coming by to check on her. Whenever she rings for help, they come.
Extended
family members are constantly calling and coming by to keep her spirits up.
In
response to all of this, she keeps saying she wants to simply go to sleep
and not wake up.
As
I said before, we know how this story will end, but we’re not near the end…
There’s
something more that Mom has to accomplish.
Exactly what that “thing” is, I’m not sure… but I know every life has a
purpose… and has a mission to fulfill.
Once
our mission is completed, then we will move on from this life to the next. To give up on a
life before it has fulfilled its mission will affect and alter others left in
this life.
That’s
because everything on this planet is
connected in some way. Every action —
every “thing” — has significance to someone.
Even if we don’t see the connection or significance, it doesn’t mean
that the connection doesn’t exist.
What’s does Mom have left to do? I have no idea. I don’t know if this time is given to her to
accomplish something for herself or for another. For instance, her presence and interactions
with others during this time may help them fulfill their own personal missions.
I
don’t know… and I don’t need to know for any of this to happen as it should.
I
just believe that every life, every action, every word affects another;
therefore, your whole life — from beginning to end — has purpose.
