I met a man who hates religion. I told him that that was all right. Jesus was not religious, but He does require that we have faith in Him. It is with a sorrowful heart to say that he is contemplating euthanasia as an old man with little hope of coping with pain. He knows that I believe that God does not give us more than we can bear, so he was reluctant to share what he was talking about with his social worker. This is serious, sad and very painful. I told him that he does not have to go through hardship alone. God will always bring someone into his life, so he will not have to bear it all alone.
Today, I took him his electric razor, toothbrush, and vitamins to his hospital bedside. I will try to visit him daily until he desires it of me. He seemed so much better today; able to walk with a walker; even asking for hot coffee and the National Post Newspaper. Things can change for the better in a day, so please don't give up whatever you are going through!!!!!!
