Please pray for my dad, William, or Bill, he was taken to the hospital
today in an ambulance, for chest pains.
He's about 80 years old. Pray for his salvation, too.

God bless you as you pray.

Okay, will do brother...
I know that is a difficult thing to see a parent suffering.
It sounds like your Dad has had a long life, I hope I can make it that far.
Maybe you could witness to him if he is able to hear it, or have a pastor visit him in the hospital or maybe drop a Gospel tract by his bedside.
God bless...

He was not seen immediately, last night, he waited about 2 hours! That tells me it wasn't anything terribly urgent. He has been moved to a room, and from what I hear, he will call
his lady friend this morning. So, that's that, for now.
I wonder what it feels like to be so close to seeing God?
I will talk to him, soon, about that.

I'm praying for you dad, sister, especially for his salvation.
God knows the heart of your dad.
How is he doing today?

Praying...almost lost my mom last year. She is saved - was 72 when it all happened....actually that she lived through what she did is a miracle. ..that's another thread though. ...

It is troubling on so many levels when one almost loses a parent. Maybe this can be a "wake up" call for him, and might open another door that He might receive the gospel. I pray for his salvation and your peace my friend. My heart and prayers are with you sister. How is he today? How are YOU?

here's an update:
more of an update, I just talked to him:
He's not in icu
He says he feels pretty good his gall bladder is inflamed, might be removed,
the doctors are concerned about his heart, they say it could have been
a heart attack, they are testing him now, many tests, might inject dye into him to trace what's going on,
look for clots or blockage.
has 3 or 4 doctors, and he says he doesn't remember their names.
Please pray that the doctors find out EXACTLY what is wrong with him, and they only give him the meds he needs.

Many thanks, Beth. I can feel your genuine concern. The fellowship of believers in here is almost palpable.
I'm a little shaken up, and feeling kind of sad.

Will someone, anyone, remind me to check the "yes, I want an email notification"?
I've been running in circles here.

Biblereader, I will pray for your Dad, my father passed away just this February, he was two weeks short of being 81, so I know the stress and anguish you are going through. I will pray that he recovers well, but most importantly that he receives Jesus as his saviour.
