Über diesen Titel

Recorded on September 9, 2019, this intimate spoken journal follows Lyn Goffaux as she reflects on life in a nursing home, her physical therapy, and her faith‑guided decisions about money and Medicaid. She describes being evaluated by physical therapists, explaining why a walker feels unsafe and how she has learned to rely on her wheelchair and her own methods of moving after a broken elbow. From there, she opens up about the high daily cost of staying in the facility, the rent she continues to pay on her apartment, and the tension she feels between needing care and wanting to go home. Turning to prayer “in her office,” which she affectionately calls her bathroom, she shares how a sudden bad feeling in her stomach after praying about Medicaid convinced her it was not the right path. An unexpected financial blessing from a long‑term investment allows her to cover her expenses, pay tithing, and settle existing bills, which she carefully talks through in detail. Her son Paul appears as a loving advocate who tries to enroll her in Medicaid, then willingly stops when she explains the spiritual prompting she received, leaving her relieved and grateful for his support. The recording closes with a burst of family humor as she tells a vivid story from a trip to the Beartooth, where relatives caught above timberline with no trees for privacy end up facing traffic and hiding their faces with their hands, capturing her wry, enduring sense of humor even in a hard season.
