Unhappy asking for prayer for a friend.

I believe I had posted awhile back about my friend who's father has developed cancer. A couple days ago he woke up unable to see or function much. He's gradually gotten worse and they started him on morphine last night. My poor friend posted that she knew what that meant in "Cancer world". He's been in and out but still knew who his daughter was until tonight. He's had a lot of pain today and they doubled up on morphine and now he has no clue who she is. I wish I could ask you to pray for his healing, but it's obvious the Lord is calling him home. So I ask you to pray his pain is short.

Lord have mercy on this wonderful man. Through his life, he's been courageous when needed and compassionate before, during, and after the time for bravery was needed. He is truly a man of honor and a man with a true heart and soul. A wonderful father, husband, and grandfather. Our world has far too few men of his great character left. Please heal him if it is in your plan, or open the gates of heaven and welcome him into your arms allowing the pain of his transition to pass quickly and quietly. Whatever is your plan, take his pain from him. Please be with, guide and give strength to those left behind. Especially his daughter whom just recently told me of her unwillingness to let him go, and her uncertainty of how she'll go on with out them. This family so needs you in the coming days. Please watch over them.

Amen.

I'm so sorry to hear that Donald. Of course my prayers will be with his family tonight. And I will pray for your friends father, that his passing will be as painless and peaceful as possible.

Right now he's in the stage of waking for a few seconds and begging to be let up. Please God don't let this last long.

Those of you that have been there will know what I'm talking about. Those that haven't, may you remain sheltered from it the rest of your life.

Thank you all. I just worry about my friend. She is close to him. Hard to explain the situation and not my place to. But in a world full of (CENSORED) hateful losers, he's been her one constant source of good. Just worry how she's gonna handle this when it really hits her. Right now as is the way in these times, she's mostly on auto-pilot.

Update: He has passed away. Don't have much more than a "My daddy is gone" to go on. But he apparently lost consciousness earlier in the night and never regained it. So hopefully it was peaceful with no pain. Please continue to pray for my friend and her family. And I thank you all for the prayers. I'm sure she is grateful for them too.
