Dad is likely departing this life within 24 hours, or less, it seems
I have some very sad news, folks, to report, it seems. It appears that Dad may be going Home within a day, if not even sooner. Mother told me around 4 pm CDT today that he might be gone within 24 hours from that time, quite possibly. Dad has had a long life, and he's been fighting for a long time to stay here, in this world, but it appears that his time on Earth is very short now, if that's the case for him. He has been in pain and all, and has not really been eating or drinking, and it appears that he may go very shortly. I don't know when, of course, just yet, but for those who see this while he is still alive, please pray that he goes peacefully with no pain, no suffering, no struggle, no incoherence, and no fuss and bother and all, and that he may leave this world with a smile on his face and joy in his heart and all, in his sleep, if possible, and if it's the Lord's will that he do so, everyone.
This is very hard for me to write, but I'm still writing it anyway, with tears streaming from my eyes as I do so. And I can't fully imagine what might be going through my mother's mind now, as she watches her husband of nearly 57 years depart this world, either, for obvious reasons. Please pray that we who remain will be at peace and all, as we see another one of our loved ones depart this life and enter eternity. I believe Dad is and was a Christian, and if so, I will see him and my brother together again in eternity, if I make it to eternity with the Lord, as I hope I will, when my time of mortal existence in this life is over.
I will write more later, as I am capable and all, I'm sure. But in the meantime, please pray for us all, for sure, in any case, everyone. CD out.
