KarHart Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Brenda, I am so sorry. I know how hard it had to be on you and your family. My husband has battled with this choice. Not due to pain, just not wanting to die a slow death. The fact that I would lose a major benefit is what has stopped him and I am grateful. This horrible disease takes so much from everyone involved. I hope your family finds peace now that he is no longer suffering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carleen Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Brenda, I am so sorry your your families loss. This is such an ugly disease. But know now that your father is no longer suffering, there is no more pain, there is no more sickness where he is; only love, forgiveness and beauty. You and your family have so much pain now to go through and so much grief. That is normal and I pray that God bring you strength and comfort on the road ahead. But I also wanted you to lighten your mind and your heart of any distress you may be feeling about the manner in which your father faced the end of his battle. As others have said before me, there is no shame in it. Your father was in incredible pain, and he chose to face the beast with defiance and say "I will not let you take all control of my life from me". He fought up until the end, and was still one strong warrier. You said you asked God for forgiveness, and I want you to know that he has been forgiven. Jesus died for him, and salvation was his from the moment he accepted Jesus into his heart, and the moment he believed. The only unforgivable sins are rejecting Christ (Mark 16:16) and blaspheming the Holy Spirit. (Mark 3:28-29 KJV) Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme: But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation: Your father rests now in God's warmth where he can continue to love and watch over you without the limitations of his fragile body. God Bless you, and keep you Carleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nancy c Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Brenda, I am so sorry for your loss. We cannot judge anyone...we don't know the enormous amount of pain these cancer patients suffer. Your father is sitting in the hand of God, and is at peace. Do not torture yourself. He was a wonderful man, and knew where he wanted to be.

sharyn Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Brenda, This is such devastating news. I am sure God has welcomed your Dad into his kingdom with wide open arms. I know the way this played out has got to be horrible for you - I am sure your Daddy did what he felt was the best thing for himself and for his family. I am sure he could not bear to see you all watching him suffer. May he rest in peace. Much Love, Sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
