I request prayer last fall when my mom was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. I have been with her and she has been under hospice care since..there have been so many ups and downs, but mostly downs.
She has had a lot of health problems over the years including this..seems so wrong for someone at such a young age. At times I have hoped that there would be a miracle. It is a miracle that she is still with us and it is a miracle that she is in good spirts. But it is taking so much from her and today she told me that this is her time to go and she will be at peace when it comes. I didn't want to hear that for sure. but her body is so miserable and often the comfort methods we are using are just to help one thing and then something else starts bothering her. pain. fatigue.. Her coughing spells are horrible the fluid keeps building up in her lungs. I have been so angry at God at times. either anger or fear. This disease is so evil and no I don't blame her smoking cigarettes because she doesnt blame them herself. She doesn't blame her smoking habit.. because as nurse she has seen this in non smokers. But please keep her in your prayers. and our family.
i dont think i have much time left with her
Prayers for your mom and you.
You have my prayers. If she is at peace, pray to God that you find that peace as well. I know it must be difficult to let go. I’ll pray for her comfort and your family’s peace of mind.

Hi, I just wanted to say thank you for your kind words to the poster about her mother who is dying of cancer. These are words I needed to hear. My father is dying of cancer. He just turned 76, and it has all been fair. He is not suffering too much right now, but we have been living on borrowed time for months.
Your reminder that this life is but a blip; and for those of us, such as my dad, have Jesus has our savior, have no worries.
(btw....I lived in Maitland, FL about a hundred years ago when I was in my jr high/high school years. I saw you were in Winter Park and I thought, “whodathunk it? I know exactly where that is!)
bless you,
Karen
