    Thank you all for your prayers for my Mother in Law. I am saddened to tell you she passed away this past Tuesday after 6 weeks of fighting an unknown cancer and after a 9 year fight with Leukemia. She is terribly missed, but we are thankful to know that she is no longer suffering and she has gone to be with the Lord. I know your prayers made a difference in her life and my family's lives during this time.

    My sister in law, Kathy, is in need of your prayers. Kathy actually lived with her and was her best friend. This has been harder on her than anyone else because of their close bond. Also, the night she passed away, Kathy and my husband saw her suffer severely for the last two hours of her life before she took her last 3 breathes and passed away. In that last two hours she was not aware of what was going on, but it has left Kathy and my hubby with horrible memories. My hubby is trusting God for strength and asking God to take those memories away and to restore the good memories. Kathy is very weak right now and looking for something to fill the void she feels. Please pray that she will remain faithful to God and that He will help her through this and give her strength. Kathy is at that fork in the road between the Narrow way and the Broad way and needs our prayers desperately.

    Being carried by Jesus through this time of sorrow, praising Him for His wonderful Grace and that My Mother in Law is rejoicing with Him,
    Melanee

    I am so sorry for your loss. You already know she is in the sweet arms of Jesus now, and knowing that can be such a feeling of closure. I will pray for all of you, for understanding & healing.

    Melanee, continue in prayer for your family. Death is hard on the loved ones, but she is with Jesus now, nothing is better than that, and she is not suffering, at all.

    Yes, I affirm your prayers that your loved ones will choose the straight and narrow. I pray that as opportunities open, that you will know what to say and how to comfort.

    I too want to extend my deepest sympathies. I hope the road to emotional recovery is not too long for you and your family.

    I am glad that you feel she is finally at peace.
