I would have added this to the "add healing requests here" page.. but that's not where this belongs, I suppose.

Yesterday, my grandfather was put on life support due to a huge and rapid decrease in blood pressure. After further tests they determined he had severe kidney failure and serious bowel problems. There is a huge list of other things and considering his age, our family made the decision to allow him to pass.

We were told this process could take only a few hours or a few weeks and when I left him last night.. his breaths were down to six per minute. I thought he would pass in the night, but he hasn't. He's on high dosages of pain killers and had been requesting all of this for the past six months or so, so we know it's definitely what he wants and what is right..

All I'm asking is for thoughts, prayers, energy.. or whatever it is you can offer for him to be allowed to pass quickly and as pain free as possible. No healing as it is far too late for that..

Thank you in advance...
May the Force be with you all.

My thoughts and condolences are with you.

Kristin,

I am sorry to be reading about this news after the fact. But it sounds as though it would have been too late to make a difference anyway. I sincerely hope his passing into the Force brought him joyful relief. I am sure that the hearts of all true Jedi are with you right now, wishing you strength and peace in your time of grieving.

Fraternally,
-David

Take heart from knowing that he is at peace and will suffer no more. Those we have lost are never truly gone...when you immerse yourself in the Force, there you will find him.
