Hi guys!
My grand-dad hasn't been well for a few days now, up until today he has been massively dehydrated and has collapsed 3 times in the past 4 days. He is a smoker an a drinker so it's obvious where illness and sickness can come from when it does come his way. After all of this, he's a man who hates hospitals because his only previous experiences of hospitals revolve around death, that of his wife (my gandmother) and his daughter (my auntie), so I guess it was a bit understandable as to why he didn't want to be admitted to hospital.
He eventually came round to it just this afternoon, he needs a blood transfusion and then after that there is also an ulcer in his stomach which is bleeding from his ecessive vodka drinking habits and probably from smoking too. He's 87. If you could all please pray for him that would be absolutely great! Thank you for all that you do, you are all truly great people and may God continue to do a good work through all of you who have turned to Him!

May Our Lord Keep him and strengthen him always and may His grace be upon you and your family.
May you find strength in the Lord and may His Love be upon you and your family.
PS: Don't say bad things about vodka !!
I do hope that all goes will with your grandpa, mine is 90 and in Portugal and I don't know when I'll get to see him again.
Treasure these moments dude, always.

Sam,
You need to spend time with your grandfather and show him the gospel through your concern for these last days of his.

If they had a social gospel in the days of the prodigal son, somebody would have given him a bed and a sandwich and he never would have gone home.

My prayers for your grand-dad. God bless.
It would be a blessing if they missed the cairns and got lost on the way back. Or if
the Thing on the ice got them tonight.
I could only turn and stare in horror at the chief surgeon.
Death by starvation is a terrible thing, Goodsir, continued Stanley.
And with that we went below to the flame-flickering Darkness of the lower deck
and to a cold almost the equal of the Dante-esque Ninth Circle Arctic Night
without.

Praying Sam.

Re: Calling upon you good people for prayer again!
Ditto on praying for your grandfather (for his immediate health and salvation), Sam. And thanks for reminding us of the importance of asking other Christians for prayers, as we don't do that nearly enough.
