Prayers for my family, please. (hocndoc's mama passed away.)
8-16-2006 | hocndoc

Mama's the lady who answered the smart-alec neurologist with the bowtie and the big attitude about coming from Harvard ("Haaahvaaahd," when she told it) who asked her to name all the animals she could with, "Lions and bears and tigers and jackasses and Democrats."Please pray for my Daddy and family as my Mama passed away Sunday night.

She never got strong and pain free even after all of the thymic carcinoma was removed by surgery in November, 2004. I believe that the antibodies she made against the tumor caused nerve damage that led to a stroke.

She reassured me the other day that she was saved when a teenager. I know that she's pain free now and sleeping in Christ. But the centerpiece of our family is gone.

Prayers for you and your family's comfort and strength.

Mothers are special people and it's very hard to say goodbye to them.

She'll never really leave you, though. Mine never has, even though she departed the earthly life 20 years ago.

Dearest Lady, 'wherefore comfort one another' 'for the dead in Christ shall rise first, then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, so shall we ever be with the Lord.' [I Thess 4:13 - 17]

You are, m'Lady, the strength of your Mother and thus now a part of the center of your family. That is as she would have it for she passed her strength to you and everyone in her family. The Peace that passeth all understanding be with you and your family. You will be together with your Mother again, and thence forever in Love.

Prayers for you. She is free from pain now.

Remember ... this separation is merely temporal. Soon you too will cross the threshold of earthly life to life immortal to the words echoing "Well done, Good and Faithful Servant."

Unto You, O Lord, we return with praise and thanksgiving, for through the Shed Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, we can mourn the passing of one so beloved as hocndoc's Mama, yet our tears are of rejoicing, too, for she has entered Eternity. Thank You, Merciful Father, that You graced her family with her presence beyond the expected time ... how tender Your mercy ... how sweet Your goodness.

May each in hocndoc's family mightily feel the Comfort of Your Presence as they walk through the days ahead ... surround them with Blessed Assurance that joyous reunion awaits.

Blessed be Your Name, now and forever more. Amen ...

Prayers for you and your father at this time of loss... It sounds like you had a very special mother - that's a blessing for you to hold. She loved you.
