Default 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

Sending you and your family, and father, extra strong prayers at this time dear pono...May His love and His strength uphold you all, and inspire your father's doctors to give what is best for him and all of you. May your dear father find peace.

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
