Mom and the Flower

I'm bursting with good-news; I'm dancing the song of my Savior God.

God took one good look at me, and look what happened— I'm the most fortunate woman on earth!

What God has done for me will never be forgotten,

God whose very name is holy, set apart from all others.

His mercy flows in wave after wave on those who are in awe before him.

Song of Mary from Luke 1, Message Bible

Mom and the Flower

In 2007, the activities director engaged the residents to participate in an art project. Some participated with ease, others with caution, still others with much assistance. Inez, began with bright colors and ended with this beautiful picture of a hyacinth. Bright yellow and green, surrounded by a sea of red, the painting began to take shape and soon, everyone stood in amazement.



You see, Inez was in the final stages of Alzheimer’s. Unable to tend to her basic personal needs, recognize family and friends, mumbling more than talking, confused and absent most of the time, this wonderful lady was able to express herself in beauty that even her family was unaware of.



May this wonderful miracle bless you as it has our family. Even in the midst of hopeless circumstances, God gives a flower of hope through His creation.
