Today has been a rough day. My precious friend that has been in a board and care home for about 6 months died. He was 93 and fought the good fight, he has been reunited with his loved ones that have gone before. He will be sorely missed here.
The prayers are for my mom. She is in the hospital, she had a bowel obstruction that perforated, while they were doing surgery they found a mass that is colorectal cancer that has metastasized to her liver. She is in serious but stable condition and they are running tests and doing pathology before we will really know what the prognosis is.
I appreciate and covet any and all prayers for her. Whatever is meant to happen I pray she doesn't continue to suffer as she is now. Thankfully they have her on a pain pump and are keeping her fairly comfortable. They have left the surgery site open and it is very painful when she is awake, she cries out in pain. It is difficult to see any human being suffering so.
Thank you for the prayers.
They don't know if she will live through the day.
She is no longer suffering, thank you hospice and the drugs they provide for her to be comfortable. I told her when this started I would honor whatever she wants to do.
She said she was done and wanted out. I am so grateful for The Lords mercy, HE has delivered her from suffering for an untold amount of time.
Thank you ALL for your prayers and thoughts, I know they have made a difference for all of us. God bless you all exceeding abundantly.
We are still praying for you.
Happy to hear that hospice is helping your mom remain calm and pain free.
Wishing you peace during this difficult time. Lots of love and hugs sent your way.
And if there's anything you feel you want to say to your mom before she dies, please make sure that you say it, as you don't want to have any regrets when it is all said and done.
May God bless you and keep you my dear.
Prayers that your mom won't suffer long and that you find strength and comfort during this difficult time.
Thank you Lord for keeping her peaceful.
Her friends daughter is the POA and she has been tremendous through this difficult time. She is keeping my mom's other 2 dogs and has come to love them as part of her family. It's good for the dogs and her.
I let her know daily how much she is appreciated and I will be sending her a nice gift to show how much her friendship to my mom and me during this difficult time means. I haven't decided what would be the best thing but, I know I will know what when the time is right.
Thank you ALL for the continued prayers and good thoughts. Nothing can prepare you for what this specific season in life is like, it is only through prayer and prayers that it is manageable for me. Such a huge loss on so many fronts, you just ca't imagine what it feels like until you travel the path.
I am still believing for her soul and I am Praising HIM for the mercy bestowed on her already. No suffering is an answer that I am sooooooooooo grateful for for her sake. God's ways are perfect, even when it is hard for us.
Though HE slay me, yet I will trust HIM!
God bless and keep you all, your friends, family and your loved ones.
What an enormous blessing that your mom is pain free and that she has the loving kindness of your friend's daughter, who to a believer such as yourself must be such an "angel unaware" (one of my favorite verses).
The stuff about the dogs is miracle enough to me today. Was it Einstein who said "Either everything is a miracle or nothing is"?
Yes, walking this path we will all take should we be lucky to live that long is a journey of another kind. I hope in my heart that when the time comes you will feel what I felt about the loss of my Mom and Dad. I couldn't honestly imagine being without them, so kind and loving had they been all my life; yet when they went finally in age I felt only relief that I never had to witness them suffer again, that they were free from threat and pain.
Thinking about you so much. You have no idea how in my daily walks and gardening I travel with you and with Lea.
Sending you hugs and a prayer for peace during this time of waiting.
Thinking of you and your mom. I am glad that she isn’t suffering. It’s very nice that her dogs are being well cared for.
Wishing all of you peace during this difficult time. Continuing to pray for your family.
I have confidence that The Lord moved in her heart and on the scene.
This year has felt like a lifetime. It is hard to grasp that it was 6 weeks from the 911 call to death.
I am grateful for that mercy. I am grateful for all the prayers and good thoughts. Mostly, I am grateful for Jesus, my Lord and Saviour.
Thank you all!
I pray for God's peace and comfort to cover you in the days, weeks, and months ahead.
My condolences on the passing of your mom.
My condolences to you on the passing of your Mom this morning.
I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. It’s a blessing that she died peacefully. I’m sure that she knew that you truly cared about her well being.
