Dear Dana
JDHOVS@aol.com
I am so sad to hear your grief and pain and equally sad to hear about
your Dads condition and what the remainder of the family is enduring.
There is never anything easy to say or to provide other than our prayers
and support are with you, continuously.
I am also very sad and frustrated at what the Doctors have told you,
your Mother and probably your Father. Taking away HOpe is certainly not
what God may have in mind, but since Doctors seemingly portray people of
medical experience we tend to listen to their negative inuendos and
hopeless remarks. They tend to take the place of God and that is why I
am frustrated. Certainly, I do not want to give you false hope, but
certainly they should not predict length of quality of life, let alone
life expectancy. For that I am terribly, terribly sorry.
Dana, pls know that we are here for you, in support and for whatever you
would require for research that may help you and your family get through
these most difficult of times. WE will of course pray for your Fathers
recovery and for your familys easing of very toxic emotional conditions.
Take care dear lady and God Bless
