Prayers for family

I don't even know how to share this because it's so upsetting, but a cousin on husband's side went into the hospital for surgery. The surgery went well, but Tom has a very bad heart. He had a heart attack a day or so after the surgery and he hadn't regained conciousness. He began having seizures and a CAT scan from today shows no brain activity.

The poor guy is only 58 years old and has kids around my son's age.

I would appreciate any prayers for his wife, Sue and their kids Will and Angela. I can't imagine how things turned out this way. I'm not sure what Sue will decide to do. We've been praying all week, but this was unexpected and has totally shocked all of us.

Thanks.

Cheryl

Prayers are going out, Cheryl.

I'll be praying.

Thanks everyone. I certainly wouldn't want to be in Sue's place, Rhonda. Things like this certainly make you think about your own mortality.

I can't even begin to imagine what this must be like for everyone. The family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Oh, Cheryl, how awful!! Your husband's cousin and his family will be in my prayers.

I Will be praying for them

Thanks for the prayers everyone. They ended up taking Tom off life support last night and he passed away a few hours later. I'm sure it is going to be tough on Sue and the kids, plus Tom had three younger brothers and his mom is still living. Just doesn't seem right when you have to bury one of your children--no matter how old they are.

Thankfully we know he is home with his Creator and we'll see him again one day. I'm not sure how people who think this is the end survive a loss like this.

I'm am so sorry for your Loss Cheryl I'll His Family in my Thoughts and Prayers

My prayers are with all of the family. I am sorry for your loss.

Thanks everyone. It is a sad time around here. We seek answers and the only real one is that it is part of a Divinely plan that we cannot comprehend as mere humans. All we know is that we loved Tom and we miss him, and worry over his wife and children.

So sorry for this loss Cheryl. With time and alot of love I assure you this too will heal. Gather around his family and love them with all you have.

{{{Cheryl}}} I'm so sorry that I didn't see your updates before now, Cheryl.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I pray that God will comfort all of you who loved Tom, and that He'll give each of you the strength and grace that you need.

My condolences and prayers to your family and her and the children.

Thanks ladies. Your thoughts and prayers mean a lot.

I am so sorry I missed this thread Cheryl. How very tragic. I'll be praying for you and the family. (((HUGS)))
