prayers for my dad
vanity | 11/07/2011 | freeme

Posted on 12/06/2011 9:43:17 PM PST by free me

Please pray for my father. He suffered a massive stroke, in his sleep, on December 1st. He has been breathing on his own but unconscious since then. He has an advanced directive concerning heroic measures.

It doesn't look promising right now.

Mom passed six years ago. He has 10 living children and a truckload of grandchildren to go with 1 great-grand child.

He turned 83 on November 25th.

Thank you.

Prayer for God’s will. And for the spirit of Peace to comfort you and your family.

It sounds like he has had a good life - a big family to witness.

If you have the option, choose hospice - unless someone can visit the nursing home every day. Nursing homes aren’t very good with people who may never recover. My mother-in-law had several strokes and was in one until one of her daughters took her home to provide hospice until she passed.
MIL would have preferred it that was, so I’m sure she was happy. She is now with a daughter and her only son.

Stay strong.

Dearest you, ((((((free me))))))
I’m so sorry for your loss. I know you’re grieving. It’s terribly tough and heartbreaking to lose our Mom’s and Dad’s. Thank you for taking the time to give us this very sad update.

My prayers are for his sweet soul and for you and your family. He is with our Lord and Savior now.

God bless and keep you, free me.

My Dad should follow any minute, as I understand it.

God’s peace be with you and yours.
