So, I have made it well known that I am agnostic, and when it comes to things like this, I just try to wish for the best. But, while I was at work today (right now I am on lunch), I got word in the form of a text from my aunt about my grandmother. Here is what is said: 

"her kidneys aren't working her heart is on the right side it is enlarged from it she can't breathe because her lungs are filling up with fluid"

rough translation: she is having kidney failure. he heart is too big, and it is on her right side of her chest, instead of on the left like it should be. And because of her heart being on the wrong side, her lungs are filling up with fluid. 

She is in the hospital right now, sleeping. The doctor's said she would be lucky to make it to June, a mairacle if she made it 6 months. 

Whatever it is that your faith does, please... do what you can. I want to see her before... you know. I am supposed to go home from June 13th to 20th. I want to be able to see her when I go home for my sister's graduation.


Summoning those that I know will actually give a crap.

I'll be praying, of course.  Things like this are never easy to face, so I'll pray both for her health, and your strength.   Thanks for letting me know, and I'll bring it to our bible study prayer meetings, if you don't mind. There's power in prayer, and it certainly couldn't hurt...

I'm sorry you're having to go through this. Hopefully you'll get to see her.

Singelli : I have never cried so hard or for so long. The last time I bawled like that was probably when I was a toddler, whining about a toy I could not have or something like that. I mean, I know we were never that close, but still. It is hard, you know? I was not there for my grandfather's funeral, great grandfather's funeral, and then on top of all that, and what is happening now, I have had 3 friends from high school die in the past 2 months? One from a car crash, one from suicide, and one from cancer (which he never told any of us about), does not help at all. 

Both you & your grandmother will be in my prayers. Hopefully you'll get to see her.

I'm sorry that you have to go though this. I will be praying for her. I'll be praying for you to get through this as well. 

Surgiac :  

We'll be praying, thing1. Let us know if there is anything that we can do to help you through this time, and we'll do our best in helping you out. Keep us updated on any info that you hear. We'll be praying ever so strongly.

play4fun : alright. i will try to keep you guys updated to the best of my ability, and with what I am comfortable sharing.

thing1 : What? Dang, dude! That sucks! I'm totally praying! So sorry this is happening to you! And it hurts to hear about your friends too. I know you're agnostic, but during times like these (just found out my grandma has cancer, though it's early on and can probably be treated) I'd just say trust God. Our prayer has worked before. One of my grandparents friends had some heart problems, and was in the hospital. She had a massive, unrecoverable stroke (she's like 60-70). 13 hrs later, there was no evidence of a stroke. Total miracle. She's now in rehab, and should make a full recovery.

All that to say that prayer works. Know we're praying. I hope that can bring you some comfort. It's not hopeless.

mrfe : Well, with being told June would be nearly possible. And 6 months would be nearly impossible. If something happened, I would have no choice but to be a believer, huh? XD

thing1 : I pray so, I really do. I'll pray for her, have no doubt. I know how hard it is to lose someone you love.

I will be praying thing. I know this kind of thing is horrible and I hope it works out and she gets better. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help you go through this time. I'm here if you need anything.

Oh, I am sorry you have to go through all of this. Both you and your grandmother are in my prayers.

thing1 :  I don't "know" you and I know I'm not  on your "summon list", but I'm going to pray for you and your grandma anyway.  So, sorry to hear about her.  I know you said you're agnostic, but it doesn't matter - God listens when you speak to Him and seek Him with all your heart, even if you're not sure of His existence. It might not mean much to you (now), but God promised in His Word, James 4:8: "Draw near to God and he will draw near to you.."  It's probably a cliche to some, but even if God does not bring healing, He does use the things (good and bad) in our lives for a greater purpose.  Look what has already happened.  A prayer "chain" has been sparked!  You could have kept it to yourself and carried this on your own, but now you have the support of many!  Even if you don't know God, He knows you and He works supernaturally in such a natural way that we sometimes miss it.  So yeah, I can see He's already working  

I don't want to just repeat what so many of the supportive people here have already said, but I too will be praying for her. Hang in there, man. You have my support through this time for sure.

I'll pray that you get to see her at least 1 more time before she dies. Hopefully she makes a full recovery (if that is possible with her condition and age) but at very least, hopefully you get to see her before she dies.

Update: She was up last night talking for a few hours. That is all that I have heard.

thing1 : Glad to hear she was up talking, that's always a good sign. I'll continue praying! XD

That's good that she was up talking. I'll continue to pray for both of you.

That's good. Hope she's fine. I'll continue to pray for both of you also.
