Hey, guys.
It's me Katie and your help. My grandfather is very sick. I hope you will keep him in your prayers. He is in the hospital right now has been back and forth for months, and now they're telling me there's nothing more they can do that, then all they can it up to you now, but he won't go to physical therapy and doesn't want to get out of bed. He is on a feeding tube because he is not able to eat by mouth for the last few months I have been calling my grandmother to get updates on him, but nothing is changed. It just keeps getting worse. In my case, it is worse it gets. Because my family. Not too long ago lost my great grandmother as well, but I guess we all knew this day was coming, but I mean, hard spot because I live in Texas. He lives in Alabama. I talked to him on the phone sometimes, but it's not the same. The only way any only thing I know what to do, is to pray and give it to my father in heaven. Though I pray for him every day I wake up and go to sleep worried about what may happen to him, but I give it to God and handle it. I cannot change what is and I know that, but I'm just hoping that you will keep my grandfather and my family in your prayers as you go about your daily activities. Today, and check on me to make sure I'm alright thank you very much for reading what I have to say I know I'm new here, but I also know that all of you care about me a great deal. And that means a lot. Love Katie.

I think the only thing you can do right now is hope for the best but there will come a time in ALL of our lives when we all have to face the inevitable.

The best we can do is leave the stage when it is time with dignity and grace. Your grandfather probably is as stubborn and as tough as a mule but the fact is and for as sad as this is may be on his way out. At this point I would say the best thing is to visit him and let him know he is loved by family and will never be forgotten by the ones closest to him. Some of us had our families fall completely apart and when my grandparents died I never got to say good buy. That will tear at me the rest of my life but life goes on with us and without us.

Finding strength to face this is very very hard. Hopefully you can find a way to make peace with the issue and cope with the pain I know this is causing.

Saying goodbye is a lot harder than it seems...

I can relate my grandfather is not well at the moment too. Not to this extreme but he was almost classified as paralyzed and a total shock to us. My heart goes out to you and your family. I will keep your grandfather in my prayers. flowers :heart:
