    Dino thanks for the updates.

    Lord, we all have been prayin real hard for SP and the Mrs. I ask that you will place your healing hands upon him now and give him strength to pull through. Give Mrs SP the strength to continue fighting and show them both your love and tender care. Thanks for giving them both long sustaining life carrying them through many many difficult times together. We also thank you for Dino's care and great respect for SP and his willingness to take time from work to see that all is well and giving us updates on SP's condition.
    We love you Lord and ask for your answers to all our prayers.

    Amen.

    Thanks for the update. I feel SP fought a valiant fight but his body is just too tired. It is never an easy decision for anyone to make. But as a nurse, Hospice care really is a good choice. It will give Mrs SP a chance to just be with SP and he will be well cared for comfortable and with those that care and love him. :biggrin_25514:
     
    Big Don, dino6960 and JustSonny Thank this.

    Comes a time Dino...comes a time. I hope the good Lord has compassion and doesn't let him linger too long if that is what the ultimate plan is. It's hard on the family, friends and SP.
    We're all written in pencil and like my Dad also liked to say (rest his soul) "Heaven's my home.... I'm just passing through".

    SP has fought a good fight, but I feel he has no fight left in him. Imagine how difficult that is for him to face. I can imagine how Mrs SP feels at this time. Been there and done that. It's as, if not more difficult, on her.
