for my father...
 

requesting prayers

he was hospitalized yesterday... with several issues-
he is dear soul who's endured much without complaint... he's been on death watch before; recently told SIL he feels he still has some purpose, reason to be 'here'...
he's given so much to so many....
i pray, hope for BEST... for him
and ALL...
Peace

pono, I'm so sorry to hear about your dear father. Glad to hear he feels a need to remain with you and your family.

I'll be honored to remember him in my prayers. And you too. :hug:

Warm wishes to you both. :)

Dear pono you know he is already in my prayers...I just want you to know it...as are you, and the rest of your dear sweet family at this time....luv u....:hug:

I am praying for him and you as well. May all our prayers and thoughts wrap a warm blanket of comfort and strength around all of you durring this time .

thanks ALL... for prayers, caring concern, more...

.my father was discharged from hospital - now in skilled Nursing care facility -- 100 miles from home. My sis /nurse works there, lives very close.
i trust she will do what's "best' for him... focus mainly on 'comfort' ...
he is so fragile... med conditions have become more complex...
was so sad to see him like this, again....
i don't think he will be 'with' us much longer, but he's fooled us before...
it truly is between him and Higher Power...

i pray for wisdom, strength, acceptance -- what is, and will be... for ALL

prayers very much appreciated-- humbly request, ask to please include sis and family in prayers...
my prayers continue for ALL...
thanks again...

I'm praying for you all dear pono. :grouphug:

((Pono)) you got it dear one. :hug:

more...
 

thanks for prayers....
seems we're needing more....

my father went back into hospital
again in ICU
his organs are shutting down
he's in & out of 'consciousness" --wonder where he goes, how it is,
and more...

it is very sad to see him like this, again


Death, dying is not easy to watch or accept
i don't want to to "keep" or hold DF here in this Life
suffering more...
and will tell him this again....
that he is loved but if its time, go -move on -to hopefully a better 'place'
beyond the limits of his body & pain...
that I love him much, but don't want to hold him here
and thank him for all he's done, given, is
that will live on in our memory, hearts, more ways....

but if he & Higher Power decide its not yet his time, then will do what we can
as we've been trying, to provide comfort & LOVE

i'm praying for accepatance, strength and to do what's Best
and for PEACE

hold all of you in my thoughts, prayers
thanks

update
 

thanks for ongoing support, prayers, thoughts...


since last posting (over week ago?) so much, more occured...
its very hard to write now and harder to watch, witness ...
Last week was so intense, emotional, painfull....but with unexpected 'surprise'
to our amazement Dad again pulled thru --somehow, for some reason. When he came out of coma, he asked if he'd almost died and after sharing some experiences (with traveling across big sea & other encounters) said he wanted to fight and asked if we'd help him 'beat the devil'
h
he was discharged from hospital last Friday, into hospice care, at sis home.
his prognosis & condition is very poor. Drs reluctantly gave time frame of not more than 2 wks. but know anything can happen anytime....
earlier last week we thought we would be able to bring him back to his home, where he wished to be, live out his days... but He is too sick, weak to travel.

Focus on comfort -but often seems so limited

its all so much harder than ever imagined...
thought i was 'prepared ' but as he worsened last week, with organs shutting down and related problems, so hard painful .... to watch see him enduring even more
how much more?? i don't know...
continue to pray for BEST
for strenght to do,
acceptance and more that may be needed...
and for PEACE

blessings

I have been there, where you are, i send you my prayers and hope your Father will be with Our Father when he is called.....

I have experienced my sister's passing moments....don't be afraid....

(((pono)))

:hug: pono

I am so sorry.

I know the pain you are in from when my Dad's life ebbed away.

may God hold you close and comfort you. I pray especially your Dad will have much peace for however long is left

Sending positive thoughts for peace to you dear pono and of course sending my prayers. :hug:

Sending prayers of strength and courage at this most difficult time Pono :hug:

My dear sweet pono, I, too, was with my father when he made his transition. Please try to understand that the medications and illness that he is going through will bring on some confusion. He is working through a most difficult situation emotionally, but, when his time comes, there will be angels to help him. Please know that. You and your father, and family members continue to be in my prayers. I know how hard this is, I am holding you tight dear friend.

I am sorry to hear that your father has passed away. I believe God has taken all his pain and suffering away and he is in a better place in the heavens . For this I am glad as the suffering by all of you has been a "long hard ride".

I send my deepest sympathy to you and the rest of your family.
sending healing comfort to you pono.

my DF passed peacefully sunday nite...
after long hard fight...


thanks ALL
for thoughts, prayers, support, condolances..
extended with so much caring compassion, understanding, Love...

my heart & prayers go out to those going thru this process
and to those who have been there--who've cared for, and lost loved ones...
who know the pain & blessings
and more that comes with this part of Life --dying Death
that each, all will be confronted with...

since he was buried yesterday
'signs' , that he's moved on, is in better place now...
free from burdens of this life,
pain suffering
those left behind continue to experience...


it is hard... harder than imagined...
so many mixed emotions
and more
difficult to express

praying for Peace
for ALL
