I started Hospice at home, prayers and emotional support appreciated. UPDATE: Our Beloved Monkey Flower Has Passed - 7 April 2020 - ljs

Hello again my amazing and amazingly loving friends

I am doing so much better tonight than I have in a few days!

I was hardly sleeping, which is not a new thing in my life. Before I would go a few days with bits of sleep. then, I would play catch up by sleeping for hours. Over the last couple of weeks I've had the not sleeping much ( Roughly 2 to 3 times a day/night in the form of very short less than n hour) snatches of sleep, waking confused and annoyed)

So after being a squeaky wheel, (calling to bitch to my nurse and social worker) today FINALLY! My nurse called me telling me a med had been called in to my local pharmacy. I had tried all of my usual things that normally help me sleep without an rx med. I think they finally gave me the rx just so I would STFU.

So many awesome people here, so much love, so many prayers and well wishes, so many laughs,so much music!

Oh, the music! So many friends to thank for music! To name only a very few. Lance from BC, I've made a playlist I loop of the beautiful music you have gifted me with. Music for my heart and soul. I can't explain how the music makes me feel, how that gorgeous music carries me away...

Coolio...a song that brings my baby brother to awaken a bit in my heart, and the happy tears that I will soon seem my baby brother again. I lost him years ago. He was only 49 years old. My only sibling...I miss my baby brother every minute of my life...Thank you for a song to bring him closer.

Citizen Perth...Pink floyd, wish you were here. One of my favorite Floyd songs. I even cleared my throat during the first part of the song. At the start of wish you were here one of them clears his throat. Anyway a song that speaks to my, or thru my heart. Another Pink Floyd song I adore is called on the turning away. I love On the Turning Away because it is another song that speaks a truth so many people,even good people need to hear and understand and live.

I do not watch tv. I fill my life with music. I am so glad I can. Music is the language of the universe.

I am sending thanks and love to everyone. I hope everyone feels as loved and supported as I do right now....Tangy, hug your delightful dog for me. Tell him I owe him a trip to dog toys r us!

Tomorrow my 14 year old grandson is coming to visit me. I am spoiled!



Hours ago I started my GLP day finding a dancing rat in my email...Thank you

Wonder not for who/m the rat dances, he dances for us all.

PS hey Uh,

Your light shines bright through this site, your generous gift of sharing and the beautiful nature of your soul in this thread will help many, many people.

Thank you for being here and all you have given to all of us : )

Thank you. A beautiful message.

A poem I wrote that Kitty will surely understand..

Cat and Mouse

Mouse said to Cat, sorry to bother
but why do mice and cats hate each other
Cat shrugged, society makes us malicious
yet I believe mice are truly delicious

Mouse my man, this world is just rude
I really do think you are oh so cute
to me you are a gift, heaven sent
we will be friends right to the end

And with a "That's all she wrote"
He slid Mouse right down his throat
Cat said to himself, wow what a buffoon
he probably saw a Tom & Jerry cartoon

********

Next time I will post a dancing rat..

Kitty knows she is only allowed to bring me felt mice (mouses?). The other kind of nice are for the dogs food dish or my husband's pillow. I don't make the cat rules, but kitty knows I always have a snack for her. She respects my no real mice dead or alive on my floating cloud/bed.

Thank you! I forget about this! We have it on cassette tape (yes I am (kind of) old.)

Now I have it as my own play list!

Shared this one with my husband, as this is his favorite song. I love me some Zepplin as well! Thank you so much!

Hey there! Glad you are feeling well today... Just wanted to say that your spirit seems healthy and that's great to see!

You said that you lost your brother at 49. I lost mine at 16, I was 20 then. Man do I hope to see him someday again, but not yet! Glad you look forward to your reunion too.

I'm also glad that you are finding good company here!

I'm going to leave you some music since you seem to enjoy it so much. I hope you take a listen. It really is beautiful music.

If you like the few I left here, go to this link and it will take you to a playlist of the full album!

Have a good one!

Love, prayers, and blessings to you and your family, my precious one!

One of the all-time greatest poems...

Desiderata

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.

Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.

Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.

Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.

And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

I relistened to it at 432hz and didn't like it before but I really like this...

MonkeyFlower, since you are a kitty lover, I don't know whether you're familiar with this -- Kitten Academy Live Stream 24/7 on YouTube.

A wonderful couple takes in rescues and fosters these kittens until they are adopted. They live stream their play activities 24/7. Nothing deep and complex, just simple and pure.

It's great to calm your mind at times.

That’s my fave number, 432.

I’m praying for you, my precious MonkeyFlower!

This may bring you some more peace and comfort about the afterlife

So happy you are having family members with you and enjoying music. Makes my heart happy to see your thread. Lots of doom on here these days- more than we can shake a stick at. You're the bright star in it all. Shine on sweet soul.💗🌻

Hi Monkeyflower

I am so sorry to hear you are going through this.

To be honest, I have considered your situation, asking myself, would I rather be in your shoes than mine.......I think you are in a MUCH better position than me.

Consider having no one. If I were to get sick, No one would care. (except God) I would easily give you my perfect health in exchange for the love you are showered with. I am NOT kidding!

I meant to add a song last night with this message, couldn't load when I read your last message. It is Led Zep but in an alternate female voice lends to it's depth.

From one Cat Woman to another...

You may never see my post but I ask God right now to fill you with the Holy Spirit and the feeling of Inner Peace right now! I ask him to allow you to feel his hand somewhere on your body, and for you to feel a warmth as you would feel from the hand of a close friend or family member. Jesus has absolved you of any & all sins and I ask that his unconditional Love will be felt by all those close to you. God be with you and may your soul always live in God’s Favor!
Amen!

Prayers and love. You're going to a good place.

All love out to you still.

sending prayers bro! Godspeed!

Sending you light and love

Hey OP! Sorry I haven't written sooner. You have been in my prayers since you posted, I just wanted to let you know that.

I have a song that I've loved my entire life. Many people are not familiar with it. I'm sure you know the band, but this awesome song seems to have been over looked by almost everyone. I don't know why, but this song talks to me. It hold deep meaning to me. I hope it speaks to you as well.
