Hello Tonya, my mom is 53 she has pulmonary hypertension and congenital heart disease. She's been sick all her life. I'm 26 and will graduate college this month. I stay home mostly because I don't want her to get sick. I love my mother ❤.
❤ Hello EmmysCoolVids123. Lovely remarks about your mother. I’m feel honored to read about the sacrifices you have made to be there for your mother and I’m proud of you. I know that your sacrifices are not going unnoticed and you will reap the benefits of your self-sacrificing love. My baby sister is my loving caregiver after I fell and became an incomplete quadriplegic. Keep on enduring with patience and prayer. ❤❤❤
@1quadlove118 Thank you for your positive words. I know my mom might not make it to 60 or 70, but I'm trying to spend as much time with her as I can. I am an only child. I am glad you have a sibling you can count on blessings to you. -Emmy
Hi Tonya, this was a comfort to me m I've been taken care of my Father for 4 yrs, along with Hospice and it was something I had to do being the oldest, he transitioned Friday, I thank God for keeping me to be there for him !!!Thank you for this video !!!!!
U know Tonya, my mom passed in 2019 and although we didn’t always get along I saw it as a honor to care for her when she was gravely ill… God saw me through it and gave me patience and understanding 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
You speaking today Tonya. This is me currently. The oldest dealing with a sick dad. I’m praying. Thanks sis for sharing . I needed this today. God Bless. 🙏❤️❤️
Today is Wednesday, September 11, 2024 and this video blessed me, corrected me, encouraged me and strengthened me. I am the 61 year old “baby” of 5 adult stair-step children trying to give our 91 year old Mother the very best care that she deserves. I’ll just say that I have laid a lot at the altar this past year, but what clarity you brought when you made the parallel (not comparison) about the “cup” that Christ drank from WOW!!!! Thank you so much Tonya for letting God use you.
Hello Tonya I know exactly what you’re saying, my Mother had a stroke in 2013 and passed in 2016 and I took care of her the entire time. And when she passed I cried but it was tears of knowing she was with GOD and it didn’t hurt because I was there to take care of her. GOD BLESS you and your Mother cherish every second with her. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💖🥰👸🏽👵🏽💯💫🌷🌹🕊️
Such a wonderful enlightening conversation ❤My mother died February 23, 2024 and I wish I could continue taking care of her 😢 Be thankful you still have your mother to love on and most of all to honor.
Love this topic. My grandmother passed away and my mom and grandmother lived together after my pop pop passed. Once she transitioned she passed the torch to me to make sure she’s not alone and content. So me and my boys are her backbone and we all have a ball together🥰🙌🏾🙏🏾
Tonya. I thank our Lord and Savior for allowing you to be a vessel in so many ways. I sincerely admire and find that you inspire me in so many ways. Continue to trust and praise God. He is good!
Happy Wednesday lady T I helped take care of my grandfather for 2 years he had dementia and I really miss him he passed away in 2015 age 95 I hope you have a very blessed day!!!!
Great video! I just also wanted to add that as we get older, we also have to recognize that we are changing, and sometimes it's confusing to us. I just turned 57, and I am finding how easily erritated I get, and my kids are noticing also. My parents passed when I was 16, so I dont have that to experience, but I am sure noticing the stages in my life. I have always had a soft spot for the elderly. I think they often get the short stick instead of the respect and love that they deserve. ❤
Both my parents passed away within the past two years, when caring for them, I had to remind myself and my siblings we must know what is them, and what is their illness. No matter what we must care for them and give them as much dignity as possible without putting them in harms way. You must PRAY for INCREASING PATIENCE and Godly wisdom.
This is so true Tonya. My beloved Mom passed three years ago and my beloved Dad is 93 year old. My sister and I take care of him. Although it can be challenging at times we are blessed to still have him . He and I are very close and I cherish him.❤
Hello my sister. Taking care of my mom was a task but God brought me through. God has the power to give you all the strength. I have a sister and she would also be there. But my mom always told me, no matter how man siblings you have there is always that ONE that the parents will depend mostly on. Guess what, I was that one. I learned a lot, did a lot, and accomplished a lot with caring for my mom. She passed in 2007 and it seems just like today. But God...... I now help my friends with ideas and other things which I learned on that journey. That is what made the whole journey of caring for my mom and grandmother so rewarding. My mom cared for my dad also until he had a massive heart attack. Blessings and thank you for this video.
Thank you Tonya for your perspective. Both my husband and I’s parents are deceased; however, your perspective gave insight into how we should practice more patience and grace with our kids. For one day, we may find ourselves needing their help for care. I want my 2 children to look back on our time as their parents and see that we practiced grace and patience with them. Consequently, they will reciprocate it onto us. Thank you! Can you share your perspective on “friendships” in your life. As I have gotten older, I noticed I don’t have as many “friends” as I did when I was younger. I desire quality, like-minded friendships but it seems to be harder as a “seasoned” person. Looking forward to your perspective on this topic. Be Blessed!
God, is so good. You speak of having patience and doing things with a pure heart is the same message I was telling my daughter today. God gives us confirmation as he continues to bless us. You have a beautiful day Tonya. You also spoke of your mother as we approach Mother’s Day, my own mother passed a few years ago and I agree with you cherish your parents all the days of their lives Amen. Keep blessing us with the word🤗
Thank you for this video. It has truly blessed me as I am going through these circumstances of caring for my father who was recently diagnosed with dementia. I am basically helping my mother help him. And am constantly battling within myself and with my own personal feelings because my father was an absentee father throughout my childhood and entered my life as a grown woman several years ago (long story). But I do the best I can with helping him. His other children who had more of a relationship with him are not around. I have asked God to remove any harsh feelings I have and do what I need to do to honor my earthly father and Heavenly Father. ❤️
My mom is 75 she's still spunky drives and has her social life. But,with all of that I noticed my mom slowing down and need a little more help(she won't admit it) nowadays. Yeah... The circle of life. It's happy and sad.😒❤
Hey Tonya I needed to hear that. It's hard to see that your parents slowing down. My mother is definitely at that point but I'm happy that she is still here. She's has been through so much in her 84 years hear on earth but God....
Thank you Tonya!! You have no idea how much this message was needed this evening for me as I am in this season of taking care of my 78 year old father and 75 year old mother like I won't go into details cuz I could write for days lol....May God bless you❤🙏
Tonya, girl...this blessed me. You put it all in perspective, when you talked about the cup that Jesus had to drink from...oh yes, it can be a challenge taking care of your loved ones...but when you except that you are chosen to do it, it takes prayer, and love, and prayer again...especially if they are " learning to live for God,". Baby...!! It can also be, and it is, very rewarding.😊
So true, My Dad is 95 years old and he has always said that He honored his Mother & Father always and that is why God is giving him a Long Life! Praise God!
Thank u for discussing this topic. I’m taking care of my elderly mother it’s very overwhelmed me because im seeing my mom in different stages.. im learning to have patience and to listen….
Thank you for this topic. I have been through this. More than the emotional and physical, I had to take over the finances too. People need to prepare: wills, trusts, power of attorney, executor, probate, death certificates, clearing out and selling homes. Please speak on this too🙏
Hey Tonya , I really love what you said it is so true you do have to have more patience with your parents as they age and you realize that they are getting older and you have to be more attentive to them yet at the same time we also have to realize that some of us have parents where your relationship hasn’t been good ,That has been uneasy so you have to give more of yourself because of those situations and childhood things that you have gone through and grown through and still healing from but still making yourself available to be that child for them. It is very much demanding and the morally thing of being Christlike as well so you have to dig deeper face with those circumstances yet I get everything that you have said certainly it is, something that all of a sudden you realize that they are aging, they are getting older but the beautiful thing about it regardless of what I’ve always been loving to both of my parents and have always given myself my time or whatever I could to make life easier for both of them I lost my dad almost 6 years ago. I still have my mom so I thank God every day but I also realize they are who they are, but they are just older and it takes strength and understandingand God, grace help you to do the right thing and be there for your parents. Amen 🙏🏾
My Mom passed away in 2015,I truly miss her ,She stayed with me and my Sister,Once their gone can't ever get them back, Treasure them while your parents are still here,Yes just have patience,Ask God to keep you strong through it all ❤God Bless 🙏
Shalom Lady T, thank you for this topic today. I would love for my mom that raise me was still here today but I know we all have that time to transcend. Thank you for all your kindness and encouragement.
Hi, Tonya wonderful topic. You spoke nothing but facts. I was praising the Lord by the time you finished.😂 I would like to hear your thoughts 💭 on topic of unanswered prayers. We know God can do all things but what IF he chooses to let a pray/prayers go unanswered. This is never talked about. Thanks again.
I wish now that my mother is resting peacefully I had more time to make more precious memories with my her. My memories the few I have are now very precious to me.
Thank you so much for sharing this. God heard my prayer. I'm going through this now with my parents and also take care of my sister. However, my dad is the one how needs me the most. I'm a cry baby. So every time I'm around him, seeing him in his condition after a stroke I get emotional and want to cry. How would you deal with this and not be a "cry baby"? I have a big heart and love seniors. So this is hard for me to not feel so emotional every time. Thanks in advance ❤❤
Hello Tonya, my mom is 53 she has pulmonary hypertension and congenital heart disease. She's been sick all her life. I'm 26 and will graduate college this month. I stay home mostly because I don't want her to get sick. I love my mother ❤.

Good afternoon 🌞 blessings, God will make a way of anything 😁 🙌🏾💪🏾🥰🌺...and through any circumstances ❤
The most sobering thing of all is that we all, should we live, will be in the same place sooner than we think 🤔🤔🤔💬💬💬
