Vanity~Please pray for my family...

Posted on 07/25/2002 10:34:44 PM PDT by Sweet_Sunflower29

I'm sure there is a way to do this correctly, I apologize in advance for not knowing what that correct way is.

My [maternal] grandfather is in OKC Hospital, with what looks like multi-system shutdown throughout his body. Papa is 88 years old, and according to the docs, he is nearing the end.

Almost on the same day, my aunt [moms' sister] was diagnosed with a tumor in her lung. She is in a hospital in Tulsa. We don't think it looks too hopeful, and I hope to gather more information when my parents make it to OKC and Tulsa for full reports.

Please keep my mother in your thoughts...I can't imagine the possibility of losing one family member, let alone two so close together. Mom and daddy are hitting I-40 in the morning, heading out to Oklahoma to just BE there.

I just want my parents back home safely, and I want the grief my mother will undoubtly experience to quickly be replaced with peace and comfort.

I'm sorry I didn't do this correctly, please make any adjustments necessary to my posting~

Prayers going up for your aunt and grandfather; peace and love to you and your parents, that they are protected while they travel. God is still King and still heals. May He comfort you all and give you peace.

I pray that God keep your Mom and Dad safe on their journey. I pray for healing for your Grandfather and your Aunt. I pray for Gods comfort for your Mom and for you too. When we are faced with what seems to much to bear, God is near and HE WILL sustain us. May you take great comfort in knowing that God will NEVER leave you or forsake you.

You did just fine with your post so put that worry aside. Your plate is already too full so take that one off of it.

Prayers for your grandfather and aunt that they may have comfort and healing; prayers for their medical professionals that they may have wisdom in treating your family members; and prayers for your mother that she may find peace and know God's love as He carries her through this difficult time. All of your family will be put on my prayer list, including you, a dear, caring daughter. God bless you all! <><

Thanks for the call to prayer, John.

And now I, in turn, call upon others to join this circle of prayer.

Before I go to bed had to thank you all for your kind words.
I intend to email this thread to my mom after they get back from OK, I'm sure it will give her the same peace it gave me.

Thank you...God Bless you all.

Prayer on the way for Papa and your Aunt.

Special prayer for your Mom - it's tough handling one potential loss, let alone two.

Will be praying for you all as you travel.
