Gigi: I guess you gave up on me. I must complain too much of Arthur and I and the flaws that is happening. Sorry. So who ever reads this please set out a prayer for Us-(Arthur & I) I got Arthur out of the hospital for the Doctor stated his body was severely damaged from all the years of his usage of drugs, him a diabetic, him being homeless, an amputee (both legs gone) and it has cause his body with a lot of damage. the doctors stated his mind is still there, but his body is not doing good what-so-ever. and that his going to go into Hospice care. I feel at fault, maybe I caused a lot of his wound, his not able to care for his body, him being homeless, his attitude of lack of trust with Helping hands and be consider along with appreciation as known as INCONSIDERATE. forgive me-if it sounds "pity for me" it's not meant to be.
Well I had Arthur 2 weeks the first one half week was a holiday of glory, thinking his drug free-wrong-he slipped out of my sight and went to the drug dealers and got some drugs, later finding out because his sugar was 35 and I called 911 they revived him, and sugar got back up to 278 thanks to God. I cleaned him up as a regular routine, because I care. well A drug pipe fell to the floor. after that thing got to verbal languages from him to me. I decided to go for a four hour round trip to take his brothers mail to him and Arthur was with me. I busted out of warning, I want to have a nice peaceful travel, no arguing, name calling and he rebelled, and I was verbally abused again. I yelled back Finaly, so He left me, I am scared once again, blaming myself, his with his brother. His brother will hit him around, for dirtying himself not purposely, his brother will take his money and only feed drugs to Arthur and that is what Arthur wants is Drugs.
So, this morning I am reading Mark: 8:1-4 as always taking the trivial test. calm my heart and mind. so, I need who ever has faith to help pray Please.
I have not given up on you and Arhtur. I continue to pray for you both and for the situation.
In reading your post I was a bit confused about a few things.
Did you leave Arthur at his brother's house or did he come back home with you?
I am sorry that the trip went so poorly with the arguing and abusive language.
Being an addict, Arthur is controlled by his need for drugs. He will do whatever he can to access drugs. And, since he is well into adulthood, he has the freedom to do what he wills unless a court would determine he needs a guardianship.
We do not know what the times ahead will be for Arthur or what the outcome will be, but God does know all these things and more. He works in our lives 24/7 whereas we cannot do so. I ask for God to be merciful to Arthur and to be his strength in these difficult and dangerous times he is facing with his ill health and addiction.
I will continue to keep praying. I am glad to hear your updates and be reassured that I will intercede for all in this situation. You are doing what you can as a loving Mom, so feel good about that. I hope to talk again with you soon.
Gigi: Arthur is still in Yakima County area. His brother called asking for $$$ because Arthur messed on the bedding. I did not say anything but "that is expected" I asked if Arthur was taking his medication regularly, he said: kind of. I mentioned that Arthur needs to grow up and come back for I can keep him clean, get him to the doctor, and care for his wounds. then his brother stated: Arthur did not get his SSI, I told him, GOOD. that way he will have it and no one can steal or take it away from him and get drugs for him and them.
I feel bad for my responsive ways this last time to Arthur, I keep asking for God to forgive me, somehow, I can not feel comfortable of my action.
these Janova's witness came to my house and incited me to their church. I told Arthur's brother if Arthur does not want the help with the medical, then his not to come to my home no more. A Lot of people and I are working hard for him, I know I am losing him but at least let me Help him until the time.
What passage can I read fir the help for Arthur and calm myself as well?
Donna, I know where Yakima is. We live near Puget Sound.
I have these Scripture verses for you to meditate upon during this time of sadness, worry for Arthur.
Hebrews 4:16
Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace that we may receive mercy and grace in our time of need.
Hebrews 7:2
Consequently, He (Jesus) is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through Him (Jesus), since He always lives to make intercession for them (Us).
1 Peter 5:7 (We can be comforted, receive peace, and relief from our worry and grief by)
casting all of your anxiety upon Him (Jesus) for He cares for you.
I continue to pray for Arthur and your other son who are together at this time, (most likely not good for each other).
And for you, Momma, who brings to God the needs of your sons. I pray that God will strengthen you in faith, inn physical strength, in hope, and in confidence in God.
I know that this situation is so painful for you and also for Arthur.
I would like to ask you to pray for my friend, Kim, who is bed bound, disabled, so very depressed and not receiving the care she truly needs by not wishing to go into an assisted living situation. I will be taking her to the dentist tomorrow. This will be the first time she has allowed me to see her in 5 years. I am glad to help her, but she is just in a very bad mental and physical place. AS friends, we love each other. But I can only do what she allows me to do, since she is completely mentally competent. He two children both have jobs and can only care for her in the evenings, which isn't good care because they will not get her up out of bed into a wheel chair to come out of her room into the common living space to be able to interact with them. They feed her, clean the house, and other necessary things, but are not to aware of how they can help her to have better daily experiences.
I appreciate your prayers for her and her children. Her husband passed away 1 1/2 yrs. ago.

I am hoping that you will update me on how things are going with yourself, Arthur, and your other son.
I am keeping you all in my prayers.
