A Prayer Request

[lead-1]

First of all I would like to thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and all the members of this forum, I think you are all a great bunch, full of knowledge and an honest group.
I was told I have cardiomyopathy and congestive heart failure back in 2002, in 2004 I was taken in for a defibrillator/pacer and a couple guesses were tossed out that I may have five months to five years. The Good Lord has kept me around for 12 extra years and back in October I started feeling bad again and it turns out now I am in A-fib, have two leaky valves and have had two failed cardio versions in one week. My heart is constantly racing, the pacer is trying but not what is was put in for so that is pretty much a no go. I am constantly short of breath and feel like I'm suffocating and have had four hours sleep in 3 days. Now the kidneys are on a fine line also.
Not being able to breath or lay down on top of having two new pills that cause insomnia doesn't help either. Me, my family, friends and church have been praying constantly but I would like a to enlist a little extra help from my praying friends here if you would spare the time.
God Bless all of you.

God grant you the grace to deal with this, and healing according to His will....I am sorry you are dealing with this. It sounds rough....

Lord, my prayer is slightly different. If and when you are ready to take Lead1 home I pray you give him an easy transition to the rest of his eternal life. Until then please keep him healthy and able to serve you here on earth.

Words cannot express what you and your family may be going through, however, many here are still praying for you.

Stay strong my friend.

Thanks everyone for the prayers, I am still hanging on here at hospice. Never suspected I would hang on this long. Did lose a lifelong friend in here today, didn’t even know she was here so please add Frank to your prayers, Frank and Jeannie were really good Christian people.

[Comrade Mike]

May the lord comfort you in the twilight of your life, and may you soon know his grace. For his is the kingdom of heaven, and there you will know no sorrow or suffering.

Best of wishes to you my friend. My prayers are with you.

[Rcmaveric]

I pray you feel safety, comfort and hope during this time.

Hello sir I want you to know that I just prayed for no pain for you, and calmness & peace for you and your loved ones. I don't know why those exact things came to mind but that is what the lord put on my heart to say for you, and I really hope it is what you want and need right now. I am glad you have had as you say a bit of 'extra' time here with us and I hope my loved ones have the same as they age. I am sorry that you lost your friend recently and hope if things are drawing to a close that you have good people around you.

Hello Guys,

This is Lead-1’s son on his account. I want to thank you all for being his friends on the Internet. He really liked talking with some of you about reloading and guns in general, I’m not sure but I assume you guys talked about other things too which kept him occupied as he was disabled for the past 17 years of his life.

I’m writing to let you know he had passed away December 27th. We had his service earlier this week. It was perfect. My dad knew no stranger and everyone loved him. The visitation was only suppose to be 2 hours and it ended up lasting 3 hours with a non stop line reaching to the street.

Again I appreciate you guys being his friends on here and all of your prayers!

Side Note: He left behind a lot of reloading equipment. It’s something I wanted him to teach me sometime but as we all know life on earth sometimes is cut short. I never sat down with him to learn that part but we sure did go shoot a lot. With that being said I may be getting on his account again sometime in the future to ask questions from you guys on values and what not.

I Hope You Had A Great Christmas And New Year! God Bless You All!

-Bryan

If you wish to respond, please do so in the thread that I link to.
Just trying to keep all remembrance responses in one place.
Thanks,
