Need prayers for my dad
WWG1WGA
Just found out my dad needs triple bypass surgery in a couple of weeks.
My faith lies with Jesus, but it is difficult to let go and let Him take control. I struggle to trust doctors and I’m scared to lose him. He and my mom are attached at the hip. They have been married for 48 years and I don’t think either of them could survive without the other one.
Any thoughts and prayers you could spare would be so appreciated. I have found such comfort on this board in the past and I could use that support now.
❤️❤️❤️
Will do, fren. I feel the same about doctors, but I also know God is the real healer. Watched my own dad go through this years ago, too. He was very sore for a number of weeks afterwards. But he came through great. Will pray your dad does, as well. I've since lost my dad to old age. He was almost 90 and lived longer than anyone else on his side of the family. But we know we got about 25 more years with him than we would have had before the heart surgery. He was on the verge of a massive coronary at the time. He went straight from the doctor's office to the hospital, where they did the surgery the next day. So, may you also be blessed with many more years with your dad. God bless you and your family. Oh, I remember a story he told me at the time. In recovery, he saw 4 angels standing around his bedside. One at the head, one at the foot, and one on each side of his bed. He said they were all talking about what parts of his body they were taking care of at the time, like regulating his breathing, etc. I honestly believe it wasn't the anesthesia that caused him to see them, as we were all there praying the whole time. He was as lucid as ever when he told me that story. So, may your dad be surrounded by his angels, too.
