I am usually not one to ask for help or prayers, but last week we found out that my father has only 2-3 months to live. He is dieing of lung cancer.
He really wasn't much of a father as I was growing up because he and my mom split up when I was five and he moved out of state.
But after my daughter was born I tried to be an adult and start a relationship with him, if nothing else, just so my daughter would know her grandfather. But as time has gone by, we have become pretty good friends, and it has worked out emotionally for us both I think.
It just saddens me that now that we do have a relationship that he won't be around too much longer to talk to or even get to know better. Plus I hate for ANYONE to have to go through all of the stuff that comes with any form of illness that results in death.
Sorry to be so long winded, but just thought I would ask for him to be put on the .org prayer list.
Thanks folks,
Brian
P.S. CAp a prayer list as a sticky..does that sound like a good idea?
