I am sure that he senses your presence, and I am sure it brings him comfort.

From today's Night Prayer:

May the all-powerful Lord grant him a restful night and a peaceful death.
— Amen.


Abide with me; fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide.
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, O abide with me.

Swift to its close ebbs out life’s little day;
Earth’s joys grow dim; its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see;
O Thou who changest not, abide with me.


I need Thy presence every passing hour;
What but Thy grace can foil the tempter’s pow’r?
Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.

I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless;
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness;
Where is death’s sting? Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.

That hymn never fails to bring a tear to my eyes.

Visited my Father today and he is basically drowning in his own fluid. He is now on heavy doses of Morphine yet still in pain. They increased the dose again and the frequency. He is close to death and I am getting the Priest to give last Rites tomorrow.

If you could, please pray for a quick end to his suffering and a prayer for his salvation.
o no - im so sorry ec.
:(
will pray.
my prayers and heart is with you.

Visited my Father again today. He is still unconcious, his breaths are getting further apart. He is close to to death. He had his last Rites yesterday. I know he misses my Mother, so with Gods grace they will get to see each other very soon.

Been through the death watch with my Mother, and it is very stressful event. I have to go into work tonight but gave a heads up to my boss that I may have to bug out this weekend.

Thank you for the prayers.

Im praying for your dads soul to God dear Eastcoast and for you in all of this.

Anima Christi
Soul of Christ, sanctify him.
Body of Christ, save him.
Blood of Christ, inebriate him.
Water from the side of Christ, wash him.
Passion of Christ, strengthen him.
O Good Jesus, hear him.
Within Thy wounds hide him.
Suffer him not to be separated from thee.
From the malignant enemy defend him.
In the hour of his death call him.
And bid him come unto Thee,
That with all Thy saints,
he may praise thee
Forever and ever.
Amen



Grant him mercy and peace dear God.
Amen.

Well, he won't have to suffer anymore. I pray this man has a peaceful loving death filled with God's love and the intercession of all the Saints. I pray the child Jesus receives him.

Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those
who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

For thine is the kingdom
and the power and the glory
forever and ever. Amen

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on eastcoast's father, eastcoast, and the whole family.
