PRYR RQST My sister has ALS

[joannita]

In the last stage of ALS (AKA Liu Gehrig’s Disease), and if that wasn’t bad enough, has decided Christ is not our Messiah. Her husband is her sole caregiver. He has been tube feeding her 24/7 every 4 hours and is also experiencing severe, constant back pain. My heart is crushed.

 

[mzkitty]

I am so sorry, Joannita. How terrible..........

 

[Ogre]

Prayers for your sister, her husband, you, and all who love her. What a horrible disease. Thank God we have a forgiving Savior.

 

[Millwright]

Prayers for them.

Her theological choices are not your cross to bear.

Be her sister and give support where you can.

 

[Dennis Olson]

Please complete your thread title.

Thanks

And sorry to hear about her affliction.

I’ll pray for them both, and that she returns to Jesus before her passing.

 

[PrairieMoon]

Prayers that she will know Christ...and for you and your family.

 

[StarryEyedLad]

Praying for all of you.

I'm so sorry Joannita. Covering you all in prayer.

Prayers. God knows her heart and mind. Given the pain and suffering he knows she's not in her own mind. He knows her heart, as he knows her pain.........I'd suggest her words are meaningless in the ears of Jesus. He knows the real her.

Rest assured, his Grace is sufficient, and loving to the maximum....Sorry to hear about the path.

That is a heartbreak situation, for sure. I heard a saying once that makes sense. We will be surprised when we get to heaven to see who's there. Some will be missing that we expected; some will be there that we didn't expect; and, of course, we'll be amazed that we are there because no one deserves it. I pray that your sister will be there.
