Prayer Request, Please Read Now

YoshimiTheEthereal · (#1 (**permalink**))

I am requesting immediate prayer for my step grandfather, who has been the same as a blood grandfather to me for my whole life. I think he's in his late sixties and is in the hospital right now undergoing an experimental surgery. He has had another heart attack and his kidneys have stopped. He has a 50/50 chance of survival and he may not make it through the night.

He has had a rough life, at least in recent years. He has had knee replacements, hip replacements, shoulder replacements . . . he has arthritis horribly and is always in so much pain. I really hope and pray that he makes it out of this okay. It's really sad what he's been through, and I hope he can make it and maybe get some more help with his pain. He is truly a tough person for living with all of this, and for that, I admire him.

All I am asking is that you send him your prayers. Please. God listens.

Unfortunately, he did not make it through the morning. He passed away at around 3AM (It is now about 1:08AM of the next day). His funeral will be on Sunday. Although I wasn't told until about 1PM today, I knew at about 3AM that he had passed away. While I was online, I could just feel it. My insides were quivering suddenly, and I just had a bad feeling. It was just his time to go.

Thanks to all of you who prayed for him. It really means a lot to me, honestly.

Maxwell glomps Yoshi

Rai: Atleast he didn't go like my grandma, some idiot who Ihave high suspicions of being Peewee Herman, dressed up as Santa Claus, grabbed some deer and tried flyin' around and ended up hitting and killing her

He sprouts anime tears and Lockette pats him

Lockette: There is no doubt he is with Jesus and God in a MUCH better place and is happily looking down and also asking The Lord to bless his family including you, And he lives in your heart as well . .. . In your memories.

Gintaro: One last piece of advice: Your emotions are reflected by him, meaning if you become too sad for too long then he won't be happy and since you really love him apparently you wouldn't want that. So keep following your dreams and make him proud of you so when you meet again,

By just trying your best to live and reach toward what ever your joyful heart wishes,

you will have no shame
