Unhappy Prayers Please and formost...

First and formost please say a prayer for my Gramps and family!! I am not asking for prayers to heal unless that is gods wish but for prayers to stop his suffering!! A little about my hero, he is the strongest man I know and would give the shirt off his back to anyone that needed it!! He is the backbone to my amazing family and has NEVER asked nor wanted help, sympathy, or anything from anyone!! He is trully my insperation and hero!! He has been through more than anyone should ever endure and has fought a life time for his family!! He has undergone more health problems than countable and never let them take him down!! 3 years ago my Gma passed away and even though her passing was God awful Gramps stayed strong for us!! Well he is now giving up and I cant blame him! This is soo horrible on the family but we need to find the strength to let him! Because if he thinks just one of us still need him he will continue to fight and suffer!!

Now this is the challenge for me I dont know how to deal without food!! I even picked up a cigarrettoday I am a wreck and dont know how to handle it!! HELP PLEASE!!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

You and your family will be in my prayers. We went through the same thing with my Dad. It is a sad time. There comes a time when you just have to pray that Gods will be done and that he finds peace and rest. Be strong and remember all the good memories.

Oh Shawn, I feel some of your pain as I read your post. I'm so sorry that you and your gramps are in such turmoil. I will definitely keep you in my prayers, and you NEED to try and take care of yourself. Your gramps sounds like a truly amazing man and I bet he would want you stay on track and be healthy. Please keep coming here for the support you need to get through this. Hugs

I was with both of my folks "in the end." It is one of the most humbling things I ever did. I think, for him to know you are there, you love him and that he is comfortable
is what you can do now.
God Bless.
