    Prayers Needed

    I don't usually do this. My fiancee's grandmother went into the hospital last Saturday with an intestinal problem. By Tuesday night they found a lesion in her lung, and doctor's put her on a morphine drip, saying that there was no hope, she would soon go into kidney failure and likely not make it through the night. Here we are on Thursday, and she is still hanging on. She believes that she will get out of the hospital, because she doesn't want to die there. Her husband also believes that she will recover from this. The doctors still say there is no hope. She battled throat cancer for the last year. Two weeks ago doctors diagnosed her cancer free, and now this.

    I believe in the power of prayer and that faith the size of a mustard seed can move mountains. Please pray for her and the family. Thank you.

    I apologize, apparently I got here too late. I was just informed that she passed away around 10:00 AM this morning.

    I am very sorry to hear this. I can tell by your words she was a very special person to you. I know what you are going through. My father died from cancer on November 6th. Prayers to help you through your grief will be coming your way.
