Grandpa Is Dying


Iacobus

Recommended Posts

My grandpa is dying. We have been expecting it for a while so it isn't as bad as something sudden, but someone dying is never not sad. He is in the hospital with blood in his abodmen and lung infections. They don't know if he will make the nite.

He has been kinda cynical his whole life. He has lived a hard life, neglected as a kid, coming of age during the depression, was with his brother when he died during WWII, cleaned up bodies after the A Bomb, and so forth, and that has lead him to some doubts about God. Please pray for him.

He isn't Catholic. I think he has spoken to someone *chaplen* at the VA. But not sure. I wouldn't say he doesn't beleive in God. He does think about God and religion and so forth and if you get him talking he knows and thinks on it a lot. But he doesn't like org. religion, as far as I know. They used to be Baptist (I think) than the Church in their town underwent a real nasty break up. So yeh. PLease pray for him.
