I received this request in an email. Please offer prayers for Eternal Warming and her husband
..........................................................................................
Dear Tracy,
As you know, I've been banned from FR for some time now. I can read Freepmail but cannot respond to it.
I would like to request that you post a prayer request for me on TOS.
My husband is dying. We have struggled thru an embolism, 6 cancers only to find his organs now shutting down.
I'm so heartbroken, yet must find the strength to get thru life without him now.
I'm just so brokenhearted I could die. But I love him and need to let him die in peace.
The Doctor says he has probably 3-10 days to live. I was there today at the hospital and he doesn't even respond to me. I washed his face, massaged his body, talked to him, prayed for him and read scripture to him. Nothing could make him wake up. It's as tho he didn't even know I was there.
It hurts more than I can say. I have done everything in my power to keep him alive and comfortable. But I have no magic dust to make this go away.
Please post a prayer request for me on FR. I still have many friends and brothers and sisters in Christ over there.
THankyou my friend. God bless you.
Love, Barb Eternal Warming
Prayers for you, your husband and families.
I don't think she is. If she was, it may have been temporary, her profile is active!
You are both held by the same hands now that you will be tommorrow, and the joy you've had in loving him need not ever leave.
Miss him, but take solace in that the man you loved and the soul you nurtured, still is being loved and nurtured. He's just not hurting anymore.

Dear Lord,
Please Embrace this Gentlemen in Your Bright Light of Grace and Love,and Please give his Wife the Courage and Peace to face what must lie ahead,Thank You Lord. Amen.
Barb, I couldn't agree with Backhoe more. I'd just like to add one thing... Give your beloved permission to leave. Tell him. Tell him how much you love him and how much you'll miss him, but tell him it's ok for him to be relieved of his pain and to go home with the Lord.
And please accept my heartfelt prayers for strength and courage for you, dear one. Take it one step at a time.
Father in Heaven, please add my voice to the prayers here for Eternal Warming and her husband, In the name of Jesus we ask for strength, and the comfort of Your arms. Amen.
Joining in the prayers for a gentle passing for your husband and the sweet touch of faith and the warmth of friendships for you.
God bless.
Prayers for EW and her husband. The Lord be with them.
![]() Psalm 23I shall not want. 2. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3. He restoreth my soul; he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 4. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 5. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup Runneth over. 6. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. God Bless |
Thanks, friend.
When my Mother was at the final stages of a very long ( and largely good, but sometimes very, very hard ) life, she went to sleep, and would not wake up. Which, of course, meant she no longer took the medicine that was keeping her alive.
As she lay dying, I told her... well, a lot of things, but what started her slipping away was telling her that it was all right to let go, and go on when the Good Lord came to take her away.
And the final thing? My wife told her, "It's OK, Alice, you can go on- I'll take care of John."
That's went she let go.
God love you, Barb.
Prayers sent up for Eternal Warming and family.
God bless you, honey. I'm late to the thread but I will be praying for you and Norm. Blessings and mercy upon you both.
Tears.
It was the same with my dad...
God bless... so many of us have gone down that road, if not with a spouse ( I had to disconnect my first wife from life support, and hold her while she died ) then one or both old parents, or perhaps a dear friend or close relative. It's so damned hard. But when you love, and are given love back, a great debt is owed, to be there if possible and what little comfort you can.
Yes. Prayers and God.
Dear Jesus,
Please hear our prayers for Barb and Norman.
Please give Barb the peace that passes our understanding.
Please comfort Norm and Barb.
Let Norman be at peace.
Please bless Barb with inner strength that only You can give.
I humbly ask all of this Dear Lord in Your name.
Amen.
Have not heard any updates just wanted to bump your prayer request.
Be Strong, Be Well.
I'm still waiting to hear something from her. I have been emailing her, and so far nothing. I will try again this afternoon.
Hugs
Prayers are being send for your husband and you!
God bless your husband and you!
