Please pray for my Dad. He fell down last night and fractured his hip. They are fixing to move him to the hospital in San Antonio.
He's been very weak, and on oxygen since January when he had pneumonia. He also has survived cancer, and has heart problems.
He is retired military, being a veteran of WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. But more than that, he's been a good father to me, and a good husband to my mother. They've been married over 60 years so please pray for her, too as this is really difficult for her.
Your pop is in my prayers as well...Father God please grant your child a speedy and full recovery... freedom from pain and good rest..and please Father grant his family Your peace...and assurance.
In Jesus' name

I pray and think of you often since our meeting.
How's our girl? Hope great!

Tell your Mom that I am praying for her strength. And your Dad's comfort.
She is a precious lady, and he is a gracious man.
Love and blessing to you and them in Jesus!

Please thank your father for his service to our country. It is because of selfless miltary service past and present that we are allowed to enjoy all of our freedoms.

Prayers sent.
Prayers up for you and your family.
My parents were married 54 years when we lost my dad. Spouses of a lifetime suffer greatly when the other is hurting. I pray for your mom's strength as she stands by her husband and I pray for your dad's recovery.
Offering my prayers
Heavenly Father, we return to give You thanks for the years You have granted sock's beloved father, and we pray that You will grant him and his wife continued years together. Strengthen him as he undergoes surgery and recovery ... protect especially his weakened lungs and heart. Surround him with people who will encourage him to the limits of his abilities, that he would return home in strength and in confidence. Sustain his family during these times of stress, that they "be anxious for nothing." In the Name of Jesus, I pray, Amen ...
Prayers.
Prayers sent for your father, mother and to you. May God give the doctors' wisdom in his treatment.
Father please watch over this man who has given of himself in three wars for the freedoms we hold so dearly. Give his family the strength to deal with this and give the doctors the skills to make him whole again.
In Jesus' name. Amen
Done!
sockmonkey, so sorry to hear about your father. Definitely prayers for healing requested. He sounds like a real fighter, though.
