Mark 10
24 And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!
25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
26 And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved?
27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.

Update on Mom.

We now have been told that my Mom has three to six months to live, and that nothing can be done other than to keep her comfortable. Fortunately she has insurance that allows her to stay in her home with a full time, 24/7 caregiver, and won't be forced to move into a rest home.

Her attitude is amazing; she is stoic and matter-of-fact about her future, a fact which is a great help to me in keeping my emotions in check. What a wonderful human being.

Many thanks to all of you Freepers; and there's no reason to stop praying yet. Maybe a miracle will occur and she could experience a remission. Or at least we can pray for her to be comfortable to the end. Thank you all.

I find it hard to think about your situation. I lost my Mom some time ago. She suffered greatly but was the bravest person her medical people had ever seen. I loved her as much as one can love. I would say to you that she is still with me. I talk to her (no, I do not hear voices) and draw strength from those mother/daughter conversations. May God be with you as he was with me, and with her. My prayers will be for you and your loved ones in this difficult time.

Never stop praying, or give up hope. I pray for each of you and your families, and for each request.

Update: Mom's doing as well as can be expected. She's very pleased with the live-in, who is a wonderful, caring woman. Of course, the prognosis is still the same, but she's a lot more resigned to it, and is determined to have as much fun as she can. We're all very proud of her. Thank you all for your prayers and wishes. Happy weekend.
