Candice Johnson Member Registered: 10/09/02 Posts: 416 Loc: Alexandria, VA	I have a friend who is going through a lot already and just found out her Dad is in the hospital in intensive care and hoooked up to every machine imaginable. He's been sick with emphasema for a while. Her relationship with her Dad and the rest of the family is not the great and situations like these just bring it all to a head. Please pray that she will make it through this.

Sometimes the battle between life and death can bring a family together and petty feuds fade in comparison with the battle at hand. I'll definitely remember your friend in my prayers. Thank you for giving me a reason to approach my His throne. smile

Lynn Member Registered: 06/26/03 Posts: 621 Loc: pennsylvania	Candice, I feel for your friend. My Dad died after being on life support, one year ago today. It is still a poignant but sweet memory. And yes, at times like these sometimes the best in people come out. Our family was together like glue and I will pray that your friend feels the support from her own. Lynn

Everything we do is for the good of Mom and Dad. Period. The love just keeps on pouring out among us. I too will pray that your friend's family will also find this kind of peace. Blessing, JJ

Everything we do is for the good of Mom and Dad. Period. The love just keeps on pouring out among us. Blessing, JJ We experienced the same when my mom was diagnosed with cancer. While reading Jawjaw's post I had a revelation. She mentioned that everything they did was for the good of Mom and Dad. This is the way our lives are to be lived all the time. We shouldn't have an agenda other than what God has called us to do, love and care for one another. While Mom was sick our agendas were all dismissed. All that mattered was caring for her and showing love. Interesting. Everyone involved in Mom's care felt endless love. None of us were worried about ourselves. This should be a lesson for me. The more we show love, the more we feel it.
