Hello jhoen.. I will pray for your grandparents. I know GOD is there always for you and he will never leave you at this point of time. It is just a trial on how brave you are to face these trials. Like TerryZ had said, stay positive and everything will be alright. I believe in miracles and miracles do happen indeed. Just have faith with GOD and don't lose hope. I am hoping for the recovery of your grandparents! Have a nice day and may God bless you and your family always!!

oh my, i know exactly how you feel. that happened to me last year. my granpa nad granmama is the one who is with me when my mom works abroad. then when i was old enough to travel alone i went here at japan. then there was this incident that my granmama is going to undergo a operation of galbladder stones. my mom was enable to go home but i was left abroad for i just arrived and cant just go back home. i was so worried and i really wanted to get home. i prayed and prayed and continiuosly calling my mom maybe 5 times a day just to know what was happening.

sorry there was wrong in my typing it didnt happened last year it happened 3 years ago. oh my goodness, you havent heard from them yet? now i know how worried you are. i mean i hope they know how worried you are, they should not let you hang like that. i mean why dont just send a text message for you. sorry for saying this but they are the reason why you are so worried because they told you about it. i mean they should be responsible enough to keep you up dated.

Thats what happens when people get old, they are very helpless and lonely and they just need the company of children. Its the psychology of getting old, people are like that when we grow old. I hope you can spend time with your grandparents and spend this special time with them and so that they may also feel important coz you have spared this time with them.

I will commit your grandparents, as well as your family, in prayer and ask God for His healing to be upon them. I will also pray for God's peace, comfort and assurance to be upon them. Prayer changes things, and if two or more people pray, God hears and can answer prayers. But whatever happens, it's important to keep the faith and know that God is still in control. Take care, do not worry too much and surrender your burdens to God.

Hey jHoEn16, Be strong, don't give up. Just as God parted the sea for the Israelites, God will make a miracle happen. All you need to do is pray and have faith. As it says in the Bible," Ask and it will be given unto you." Be strong! I will pray for you.

There is song that said "Don't give up is not over, when you give up then it it is over, just hold unto the Lord and trouble not your heart until the Lord said that it is over" be like Abbraham the Father of Faith and believe that he sent his word to heal our diseases. You Grandparent are fine.
