I am a newbie with a prayer request. On the mind-numbing day of September 11, my mother (age 64) underwent what was to be routine gall bladder surgery. Instead they found advanced cancer.
She is already down to her last few weeks of life. (Making it to Thanksgiving would be miraculous.)
The prayer we request for her is for physical comfort. She is very much at peace, knowing that her eternal reward is waiting for her. She has long said she has no fear of death but she does fear dying because she has never done it before.
Thanks in advance.
What a profound comment. I'll be praying for your Mother, you, and the rest of your family. I'm glad she's at peace, and unafraid. There is great comfort in trusting our Lord.
Losing a Mom is not easy, I lost mine when she was 69.
Hugs to you.
How interesting, I used the same word, "profound" in my reply to falfa without reading any of the replies first.
May we all face death with the same attitude when it is our time.
