Bob is going through dialysis as I type this till 11:00 tonight.
They found out its not pneumonia but a bacteria in the blood.
As if he hasnt had enough to deal with going through chemo and radiation.
I miss his voice I miss checking on him all hours of the evening. Hes in ICU.... and gave me a short text.
I dont know what to do other than to ask for prayers.

(10,228 posts)I'm "spiritual" but not "religious" so what I do is think of the person (in this case his DU name) and visualize sending light, healing energy. Please keep us informed. Peace to you as well...

(45 posts)May the love in your hearts provide comfort to your minds and quite your worries so that you may find peace in the moment.
Sometimes knowing that we are loved is the only comfort within our reach, may it suffice to carry you through your troubled times.
Peace be upon you and yours,

(14,099 posts)Im sure even though hes not religious he would appreciate all these thoughts. I told him Im praying for him and first time he said it cant hurt. Hes always respected my need to pray. He loves life and no matter what life had in store for him he takes it in stride. He is everyones strength and I feel helpless that we cant even see him. His son took a bag up to him which they take up to him.
