Another update on my dad.

Today my dad had such a good day that he has been taken off palliative care. He is still in last stages of Alzheimer's so we know he could go any time but at this stage he is eating when food is offered and seems peaceful. I am sure it is the power of prayer that is keeping him at peace so thank you everyone that has joined in praying for him and for our family.

That's such a comfort to hear Therese.
God is so good.
We will still continue to pray, and he'll hopefully zoom straight up to heaven & by-pass purgatory:)

Never underestimate the power of prayer. May our Blessed Mother continue to keep your dad beneath her mantle.

The same thing happened with my mom. She has been off palliative care for 3 months now. I will continue to pray for your dad. Peace to you and your family...ang

Our sons Tom and Christopher and our daughter Amelia are type one diabetics. We pray everyday for a cure. We do not want one by illicit means though so don't support any organisation that contributes to Embryonic Stem Cell Research.
