Now we get to deal with the nice relatives....

Post by dsf618 » Sun Nov 03, 2013 7:32 pm

On Halloween my little sister came home to find her only son - 28 yo -passed while sitting in his chair watching TV. His pancreas stopped - there was nothing anyone could have done. He passed away before he knew he was sick.

At least there was no pain. He will be cremated and his service will be later this week.

I don't know what to say, what to do.....my heart is breaking. Bernie and I have decided to go to the service although he is falling all the time. He knows this is important to me.

Please keep us in our prayers. I don't know honestly how much more I can take - Marty dying, his father dying, the Fischers not playing fair, Bernie dying and now my 28 yo nephew dying. I would like to give up at times......

How much God can through at me. I think I have proven myself......

Signed with a heavy sigh!

Oh Deb, My heart is just aching for you in your pain. You have to be heart broken over this latest tragedy in your family. What a terrible shock this must have been to your sister.

May God be with you and her and all your family. May you all be surrounded with many angels of support for all your needs. May you know the hugs and warmth and caring and, of course, the prayers of all on this forum. WE are here for you dear friend. May God bring you some measure of hope and strength and comfort as you face more sad days ahead.

May God be also with Bernie and bring him strength and comfort too. Sorry to hear that he falls so easily. Could you get a wheelchair to keep him more comfortable and safe and still be there with you? When my DH had a broken leg and standing too long was so difficult, we had a wheelchair for those times when he just couldn't stand or get around very well.

I wish I could be there with you today to help in some way. Sending lots of hugs, and even more prayers for all your family. You have my sympathy and my love. God is there with you. When you feel you no longer can walk on your own, God will carry you thru. God bless dear friend. ((((((:o)))))))) Shirley Mae

Deb,
God IS with You. He loves you and his angels are all around you! I read a book about things our 'Spirit's' go through, as they grow. God is with you and your family. You are in my prayers and many others here.
Love,
Lyn

ditto to what Lyn said... keep your faith, it will get you through all this and more.

God never gives us more than he knows we can handle... he isn't that kind of God... read your bible, join a womens group.. show everyone who is not being nice what it is to be a Christian...you are going to be fine.. all this stuff will one day be a memory and you can remember you handled it while God was with you...

hugs and prayers Deb... I think of you often and know you are a strong woman... I have faith that you will come through this glowing.
