Short story is that my parents have disapeared from their managed care home yesterday. They both have mild cases of dementia.

We had taken their keys away (kept their van there for us to use to take the dog to groomer/vet) but they must have found another set.

Yesterday they called my brother and left a message that they have been away all day and are now on their way home. He found that the number was a business 30 miles south of Smyrna and then at 1230am charged gas in Macon GA. Then this morning a report was called in that they were seen within 10 miles of home.

We have no clue as to where they are, all police agencies and TV stations are looking for them and Mattie Alert has been issued.

We don't know why they don't have their cell phone.

Thanks guys, I don't know what else to do but ask for prayers from everyone and everyplace.

Lord God,

you have called your servants

to ventures of which we cannot see the ending,

by paths as yet untrodden,

through perils unknown.

Give us faith to go out with good courage,

not knowing where we go,

but only that your hand is leading us

and your love supporting us;

through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

OMG!!!

An hour ago the pulled into my brothers driveway.

They walked into the house and he asked where have they been. They did not know what he was talking about.

He asked where did they spent the night, at home they said, no you have been missing for over a day.

More to follow, after the grilling I will let you guys know what happened.

THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!!!

Bro as a I said.

It sux watching one's parents age. My dad is in his late 70s and my mom early 70s. My dad'd health has been an issue for some years . Mentally he is fine. My mom is becoming very frail now due to Polio when she was a child.

I can't imagine what will happen if my sweet mother passes before my dad...
