Prayer For My Dad ASAP

Please pray for my Step Dad (My only living parent.). He is fighting Lung Cancer in North Alabama. I am down here in Texas and have not been able to go up there. (Waiting for Hubs' business to pick up.) I may have to break away and go up there.

His name is Rick. He is in the Hospital again. This time with a blood clot in the Chemo. port emplanted in his chest. His arm is purple and doubled in size. (I guess God knows that already.) The chances are possible that the clot will burst and ...

I have cried all afternoon and I know I will have to set out on my own and drive up there. Please mention that in your prayers so that I have the Lord's endurance.

As I spoke with him today he indicated that he needed the prayers of other believers. He knows it will be OK if he passes but I get the sense that he wants to live. Susie

    Susiesistergirl ~ this is tough. Miracles do happen! I'm hoping for one with Rick! Be safe in your travels, and you'll be missed if you have to be gone. Maybe you'll get to go visit soon, instead of the worst, hopefully. He and you are definitely in my prayers. hugs ~tenderlee

    OK, girl, you can do this. You KNOW he will never put more on you than you can handle. I have seen a strength inside of you just reading your posts on this forum and I KNOW you are a go-getter with a heck of alot of gumption about you. If God brings you to it, he will bring you through it, if I had a way to leave my job, I would go with you. Your stepdad, Rick needs you there, so make it happen and know we are sending angels to surround that vehicle and float you to Alabama. Dont EVEN think about giving that Devil a foothold in this situation, name it , claim it and give God the glory and tell that devil to take a hike. I know you are a strong woman. Take it one step at a time, pack your bag, have hubby check your oil, water and tires, make sure you pack an extra blanket and pillow, sometimes those hospitals can be tiresome so make sure you have some reading material when dad is sleeping to keep your mind busy. I know you already know these things, but during these hard times, all you are thinking with is your heart. Go with God, girl, we are behind you 101%. Dont forget your Bible and pray Gods word over Rick, (The devil hates the name of Jesus, he will flee from it!) Be strong, we're here for you and have hubs keep us informed, please. Now that I've mother-henned you, just remember this, we love and care about you! Now, go on, girl, Gods got something for ya to do.....

    Sherri, I agree--may the angels be around the car and also at the bedside of her Dad!
