cancer

to-night i need the prayers of the group. my sister-in-law is still hanging on to life barely after no food or drink for 9 days. she is very weak and almost comatose now. we hope that god will take her this night as her husband and children can barely take anymore. it is so hard to see someone you love suffer like this.life does not seem fair at times. it is a cruel disease for sure. it strips people of all dignity. please pray for us. jessie

We will definately keep you and your family in our prayers. It is a difficult experience, so having your family there with you is something that will help you through this, even if its just a little. And of course, the power of prayer is amazing, so we'll do that.
Remember, we're all here for you.
take care,

Your family is in my prayers. Having watched my mother hold on for days, I know what you mean about her already being gone. Sometimes events are beyond our human understanding.
May God give you strength and peace...

With love,
Suze

Look after each other

Maureen,
you and your family are in our thoughts daily.

It's hard to watch a family member suffer. Keep supporting each other as much as possible.
Remember to keep well yourself.
Suffering always ends, and you will have the grief to cope with.
I wish you all the best for the next few weeks.
John
