"Tis the season?

I checked in with Mom this morning, as usual. Dad has been suffering with a bad cough which has kept them from getting much sleep for a couple of days . Mom said feels like she's been "running away" from a cold this week also. Today she sounded congested, so I'm afraid she didn't run fast enough! No doubt that the lack of rest has weakened her immune system and she does sound very tired. She won't let me bring them soup or go help her with laundry, etc. I'm not surprised! Jerry, the caretaker, is back from his 3-week vacation, so she will get him to come help once they are both feeling better. She doesn't want anyone to come right now. She is so considerate of everyone! Keep them in your thoughts and prayers please!

Lord, please give Mildred and Harvey strength to fight this bad cold and cough. Clear their lungs and sinuses of infection and irritation so that they can breath easier and get the rest that they need to get healthy. Amen.
