Wordless Wednesday!
Wordless any day, any time or any where!
I’ve decided to pick certain pictures from my life of long ago & share them with you! I hope you enjoy them. Please leave your opinion below if you would rather something else & you were not bored! Thank you for your honest opinion! Below is the home where I grew up. We moved near Midway Airport in Chicago in 1957. We stayed here until 1977 the year my dad sold the home (because he was dying of Lung Cancer) and he wanted my Mom to live near her sister & in a better neighborhood.
I too was having a bad time because I lost my daughter (Angelina Anne Marie) passed away of “Crib Death/Sudden Infant Death Syndrome”. She was 4 months old & she was the first baby to breathe after the fact. It was for about two hrs., but they didn’t know how to help her & she lost her strength & gave up. She passed on after that!
My Dad was a smart man. By deciding to move right away all of us put our minds into working & what we were doing and eased our minds & sorrow for a while & gave us a break! God bless him (miss you Dad)! May I add that he passed away a year or so after the move. God bless him & thank the Lord for he was in mega pain! God bless my Dad & may he rest in peace! I will have more next week & much happier things. God bless you all!

Ahh…turquoise & white was such a 50’s thing. My parents had a powder blue ’55 Ford.
Marie,
What sad memories! Your daddy must have been a strong man to take care of your mama this way before his passing. He must have loved her very much. That was a difficult time for you with the passing of your baby girl and am I understanding your daddy died the same year? WOW! The Bible says God won’t give us more than we can handle. You must be tough as nails, lady! So happy to see you’re sticking with it. You pulled together a great post, my friend!
Cathy, my Dad died a little under two yrs. later. God bless him.
Sad memories, but there is love mixed in there. Your Dad must have loved your Mom very much. Losing a child is always tragic but SIDS is an especially tragic loss. And to lose a parent in the same year Not all posts need to be happy with sparkles and stars; there is power in these kinds of memories, too. Alana ramblinwitham
I am sorry you had such sad memories, but it is better to face them than hide them away. That is a lovely photo of your mama and dad.
Your daddy was a very wise man.
My heart aches for the loss of your daughter. I lost a baby girl, too, and i know it never stops hurting, the hurt just gets a bit easier to live with. Hugs!
