My 2nd cousin's little boy Austin has terminal cancer, and we got a call today that he is in terrible pain. He was not expected to live nearly this long. Nobody should have to die before they're 60, but God's ways aren't our ways, are they.

My mom is under lots of stress. She had been trying to sell her mother's house, and finally did, but there are problems. Her burdens are so heavy, and I ask God to take it easy on her awhile.

Thank you, and may God bless and visit every one of you, and grant you what is good for your souls.

So sorry to hear about little Austin.

The impending death of a child is a very difficult thing to cope with. His parents need all the support possible as they try to understand this terrible thing - that a child of theirs , a gift from God to nurture and bring up in the knowledge of Him Who made us , is now to return to His maker.

May God give them strength.

May Our Mother hold them gently as She did Her Son

May She who is Mother to us all hold this little one in Her arms and present him, when the time comes, to the Father

May the Father bring ease to your mom

May the Lord God grant health and strength to young Austin. May he be free from pain, and helped in every way by God's grace and mercy.

May the Lord support and strengthen all the family in this time of trial!

May the Lord gift young Austin with healing. May his family find in You the strength and courage to navigate this time in hope.

Grant Jeff's mother and all who deal with the aftermath of death peace and relief from stress.
