Kevin, your family remains in my prayers. My mother
died suddenly, almost ten years ago, and my wife's
mother died two years ago, finally succumbing to
emphysema and heart disease after a several years of
carting an oxygen tank around with her twenty-four
hours a day. My wife and her family went through the
same kind of self-doubts when they put her mother
under hospice care after they were told that the
lung treatments were not going to work, and were only
causing her prolonged agony. These are so very
difficult decision, and I hope you will find peace
and strength in our Lord and Savior, as well as
comfort in the knowledge that our God is Sovereign
over all, and fulfills His purposes, even in our
trials. As John Newton said, "He chooses for his
people better than they could choose for themselves -
if they are in heaviness, there is a need-be for it,
and he withholds nothing from them but what upon the
whole it is better they should be without. Our
trials are as certainly mercies, as our comforts."

God be with you,
In Christ,
Paul N.
