My husband's grandfather has been in ICU for the last two weeks. He is 91 years old, but still full of life. He has had three strokes in the past two weeks. They had him on a breathing machine and numerous different medicines, and last Friday my father in law signed the papers to take him off of the machine. All they are giving him now is morphine, because he is hyperventilating when he breathes. They said that he is in no pain, but he looks so tired and helpless laying there. Monday he had a bad day, his heart quit beating twice, but started back on its own. They signed a DNR on him because of his age, so now we are just waitng on him. Please pray that he does not have any suffering, and that he may rest easy. <LUV>
Some of you may read this and think that it is pretty morbid to pray for someone to pass away, but if any of you have ever had to watch a loved one suffer, you know where I am coming from.
Thank you
