  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Hi I have just had the worst week ever. My dad had cancer and was placed into a private centre to be looked after until we could arrange a bed at a private hospital (we just couldn't look after him at home anymore, as the family were no longer able to lift him). He had 2 falls there :scratch: (this should never had happened) and the second one broke his hip. So then he had to undergo a hip operation, he only had a 20% chance of making it through the surgery. The first words he said was "I made it".
This last week he has deteriotrated, he didn't know who we were, until on Friday morning he passed away. :cry:
Please could you pray for my family the funeral is on Monday at 2pm. I am struggling with his death as well as the broken hip issue (which should never had happened). There has just been so much to cope with in the past few months and I am struggling so much with it all. :sigh:
Sue :(

I am so, so, sorry, Sue. I don't have words to explain how I feel for you. I am not a doctor, but I think cancer can weaken the bones so that even small falls can end up having devastating results. I am so sorry. :(

May the Lord be with you, and give you the strength to get through the next few days.

Lord, have mercy,
Christ, have mercy,
Lord, have mercy.

I am so deeply sorry for the loss of your father, and for the pain that you are going through. I ask God to comfort you, and help you through this very difficult time.

I am going through similar serious problems also. I understand. Keep looking to God. I am praying in Jesus Name...

hi Sue, i'm sorry for what you are going through, I just went through pretty much the exact same thing with my dad and it was so unexpected, the cancer came on within a month or 2. All I can say is that God's love prevails! and you and the family will get better day by day and know that the past is over and God has everything in His hands now. The rough bit is over...it's just the healing process now.
God bless

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. i pray that your dad knew Christ and that he is with him now. Don't beat your self up over your dads falls, I sure your family did the best you could for him in his last days on earth. I will pray that you and your family will feel peace after this loss.
God Bless
Sue
