Dear Freeper prayer warriors, please keep Ernest_at_the_Beach and his wife in your prayers.

From Ernest_at_the_Beach | 08/28/2003:

Just to let you know that my wife (Kathy ) is now in her final days. Her pain in the last few months from the cancer was constant and unrelenting .

The last several months had been very difficult as she was unable to eat well and not able to eat at all for the last several weeks.

God will be merciful soon and relieve her of the misery of the dreaded disease!

Prayers would be appreciated!

I don't think that God chooses the bad things..I think He gives us the choice to look to Him for help.
Perhaps he chose to make the world a place where good and bad things happen to good and bad people so that we can appreciate the good ones!

Pretty kindergarten answer to really tough questions, I know, but having been in a similar situation watching my mother pass away from cancer as a teenager...I think I would go crazy if I tried to be too complex in my thinking about this one!

Prayers offered up for Mr. and Mrs Ernest!
(and for you too Wolf:-)
