prayer request

[Rhye]

My heart is breaking and honestly I can't bare it anymore.

My parents health is declining daily, my grandmother is dying, and now my brothers fiances little bother who is 10 years old is going through chemotherapy again. He was diagnosed with Leukemia when he was 5 and receive chemo for three years but now after two biopsies last week we learned its back again. This time the chemo is going to be even stronger. Its been so hard for our family, and her family is hurting deeply. It has been their greatest fear and its painful even watching them go through it all.

I cry, I pray, but I have no strength left at times. My mind wonders off and sometimes I forget and then when I remember I fall apart. I dont know what to do but be by their side and ask for prayers.

Ethy, being by their side and asking for prayers IS the best thing to do. In situations like these, we can't rely on ourselves, our strength, our wisdom, our abilities to cope, because there's really nothing we have to offer ourselves or our loved ones. This is the time to just dump it on God and let HIM carry you through, as well as the people you love. It's a scary thing sometimes, to take our hands off everything and trust God in the midst of despair and confusion, but it can also be a strangely liberating and peaceful thing, and it allows Him to work in all of you in ways you may not imagine. I know what it's like to be with someone through a terminal illness, and go through all the emotions of fear, anger, doubt, rage, despair, hope, etc.. and still have to say goodbye in the end, and THEN go through the next myriad of emotions afterward. Especially learning not to rage at God about it anymore... I'll never know why... focusing on the "why" will drive us insane, honestly. So I have to focus on what I DO know - the love I shared with this person, and their unshaken faith to the end of their life. Those are the beautiful things that matter more than the "why".

Thank you.

I talked to my mom today, she seems in great spirits. Actually, she always is even when she is in pain. I wish I was like her. =) I wanted to clean up around the house before I go. I don't know when they will let her out but I want the house clean before she comes home.

Vicky thank you so much for those words, I read them last night before I slept and had pleasant dreams. Thank you.
