please pray for my Dad

My father is very poorly and needs to go for more investigations tomorrow.
He has had three different cancers in the last two years and fought them off

Now the suspition is that the fourth one has turned up. And at 80 it is getting harder to fight!

We would all be very grateful for your prayers!
Thank You

My dad has had a few battles with cancer, the last one just a couple years ago. He's now 88 and doing fine.

Margret, we will keep your dad in our prayers.

I lost my mother-in-law and my grandfather to cancer.
Margret, I will most certainly add your Dad to my prayer list.
Please keep us posted!

Margret and family,

Fully understand, and prayers are sent your way!

Margret, the Bradys will keep your dad in our prayers plus Sue is adding him to her church's Prayer Chain..

Your dad and family will be in my prayers as well. Cancer took my mom at age 52 and I'm a survivor who will be Racing for the Cure this Sunday. God bless you, your dad and family at this difficult time.
Judy

Thank You ALL

He is doing a little better. The nurses started intravenous feeding yesterday and that perked him up a treat.

They are still testing to find exactly where the cancer is now and what they can do. But your prayers will help. I will tell him about them and I am sure he will be grateful!

Judy, good luck with the race! Hope you enjoy it! I sponsered someone for the race for life this year, but I can not run or I would take part!

Delighted to hear the good news, and more of my prayers are being offered for your Dad, and family.

Margret, Hope your dad continues to improve and get stronger. He, and your whole family, will stay in our prayers.

May the grace of God shower down on your Dad and your entire family.

still no real good news ... unless no news is good news.

They continue to run every test known to man, but so far they are not saying much about what is going on.

Thank you all for your prayers. They are much needed!

My Dad too is grateful! He was always part of a very special prayer group - for "men and women of the cloth" and appreciates the power of prayer!

Thought I'd add this picture of my Dad, because I always find it easier to pray for someone, if I can "see" them.

My father is doing ok-ish. He came home from hospital today. But they are still not sure (or are not saying yet) what exactly is wrong with his liver. So no treatment yet and still uncertainty...

Your father is a very nice looking gentleman, Marget.
It is nice to be able to put a face with the person that you are praying for.
Will continue to keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.

Margret, I completely understand and you and your family will be in our thoughts and prayers.

Margret
Guess prayers are never too late, we will add your dad to our prayer list!

My father passed away at lunch time today! He fell asleep and just never woke up again.

I am on my way to Germany in a few minutes, but wanted to let you know and thank you all for your prayers! They were a huge help and comfort to us all!
God bless you all!

Losing a loved one is never easy.

Be comforted by your memories of the great times of his life and yours.

Know that he is without pain and suffering and is being comforted by God in Heaven and being welcomed by those who passed before.

My prayers are with you and Stan.

Margret, we will add you and your family to our prayers at this difficult time.

We will continue to pray for your dad as he now makes the journey into Heaven. Know that he was greeted by all his loved ones that have gone before him.

I also wish and pray for a safe journey to Germany and back for Stan and you.

Our sincerest condolences on the loss of your Dad. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you and your family during this difficult time.

Lorna & Bob

Margret, you and your family will be in our prayers during this time of loss.

Margret,

My prayers are with you and your family. May you be at peace.

bobo

Margret,

Our prayers are with you.

My father passed away suddenly this past August so I know fresh in my mind what you are feeling.

Our time on earth is fleeting, for it is not ours to choose how long we are here. Be comforted to know he is without pain now.

God bless you and your family in this time of greif.

Mike

Sorry for your loss Margret. It's never easy to loose a parent. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you.

My deepest sympathies to you and your family in your time of loss.

May God strengthen you and give you peace during this difficult time. Your father is in a better place...with no more illness or pain.
I will continue to keep you all in my prayers.

Margret - I'm sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Paul Conlin

Margret and Stan, I am sorry to hear of your loss of your father. You both are in my thoughts.

Thank you, all of you, for your prayers and good wishes. Tomorrow is the funeral and we are thankfull that so many people are thinking of us and praying for us.

"Us" still includes my father!

On the first Sunday in Advent 1985 the children from the Children’s Services gave this picture to “their Pastor“ Hans-Martin Herbers – my father - in his farewell service. Each child had painted or drawn one animal, cut it out and pasted it on to the scene.

We all thought, because the Children’s Services were such an important part of my father’s work, we would use this picture for our “Thank You Cards”

My mother and all of my family asked me to post this picture here too, because we all appreciate the support we received following the illness and death of my father.

Our grateful thanks to you all for your good wishes and prayers!

We're glad that you and Stan have safely returned home, Margret. The extended family here in the Collector Forums is truly a great one, and their support in times of need is always wonderful.

That picture is really nice, and I know it had to mean a lot to your father. To have "his" children each have a part in making the piece of art is very special.

... you are so right Dave!
