Please pray for my Dad - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

IluvLucy · 02-25-2007, 03:12 PM

Prayers going up for your Dad right now, Kim. I'm a Kim, too and also a Daddy's girl so I know exactly how you feel. I know from recent experience that there are so many more options available now to treat heart problems than there were even 5 years ago. Don't give up!!

Father in heaven, please wrap your loving arms around Kim and her Dad. Give them strength to face whatever comes their way and faith to see it all through. God please give her Dad peace in his heart so that he knows YOU have him in the palm of YOUR hand.

Amen

I am so sorry to hear this about your dad. Have FAITH!!!
My dad was 86 yrs old when he died, and he was told at the age of 69 that he had only 26% use of his heart. He just really slowed down, did alot of sitting instead of standing, a nap every afternoon, and went to bed early, and he lasted 17 years like that. SO HAVE FAITH!!!! They have some really great drugs out there now adays that can help him tremdously.

Good luck and my prayers are with you...

My dad had 3 brothers & 3 sisters and we had to bury his sister last month, so now its just him so this has really got him to thinking...He is a God fearing man and what he says he does, He gives so much to the church and family, that I know God will take care of him, but my problem is I am a Daddy's girl and have always been, I live on 25 acres with my parents (different houses) so we are really close, I have grown up with just them, my grandparents on both sides had passed before I was born, so you see this is really hard for me, we try to go on a walk everyday with Max about 2 to 3 miles, and Friday when we were coming back up the hill, he didn't look right to me and I asked him what was wrong and if he was okay, my dad never complains, he don't like to take medicine or aspirin or anything, he is from Texas old school, but he told me he thought he had something major wrong with him besides his heart, he has been hurting everywhere. I have only seen my dad cry once in my life, he has tears coming down his face when he told me, which broke my heart, he said he didn't want to leave my mom & me. Please Please pray for him, but mostly I need your prayers also to be strong enough for him & my mom, we are your typical mother/daughter love hate relationship, but besides my children they are all I have...Sorry to be so long, I have bottled this in for so long trying to be strong & positive, and you all really are like family, thanks for just listening to me ramble...I love you guys....YT is the best...

I will keep you all in my prayers. He sounds like a strong man and with modern medicine I am praying that he will be with you for many more years.

Thank you so much and welcome to YT! You will love it here, as you can see the people on here are family and they are all very loving & kind...

Thanks to everyone for praying for my dad, I really feel like a miracle will happen tomorrow...I just got back from his house not to long ago and he is in a really great mood, they just got back from church and I was telling him about all of you praying(yes he knows all about YT) and he said that tomorrow will be a piece of cake, between all of you and the church and everyone else praying he isn't going to worry about anything...he don't know why he even has to go now....

I will keep you updated tomorrow night...and again thanks to everyone from the bottom of my heart...

Awwww, you sound just like me, I'm a daddy's girl as well, and what you wrote about your father reminded me so much of my own dad. You and your family will be in my prayers, if there is anything I can do for you, please let me know. My thoughts are with you........

Hugs to you........

friesianlady · 02-25-2007, 06:33 PM

Oh Kim, I will keep your Dad in my prayers, I truly understand what you are going through... Our Kim sounds just like you, she worries so much about her Dad..............

genie · 02-25-2007, 06:46 PM

Your relationship with your dad sounds just like me and my dad. Your dad sounds like my dad and my dad had some cardiac probalems and I was so scared, more scared thatn I have been in my whole life so I know what you are going through. I will be praying for your dad to get well. I think after they take care of the blockage his heart function may improve. My FIL had a major heart attack and only had 20% function of his heart, after his heart surgery he had 30% function and now after 3 years it 45-50%. So things can get better especially with the help of the Lord and you have that with all our prayers too. I will pray for God to help you stay strong and get through this and to bring peace of mind to you and your family.

Bless you and your Dad. You all will be in my prayers.
My Dad had congestive heart failure, and once they told us he only had about 6 months to live. He lived 6 more years, and was nearly 90 when he passed away last year. I hope and pray your Dad does well and has many happy years ahead.
