~I Told You About Him Before~

I told all of you about my friend in the wheelchair at church who has cerebral palsy. He hasn't been in church in a few weeks now-not because of having no ride but because he is in the hospital. =( His kidneys are shutting down y'all. I know that usually means your close to meeting God but please pray everyone because he is such a blessing to me and I care about him soooo much. I don't want him to leave this world yet. Church hasn't been the same without his sweet, bright self being there. Please pray for him.

I have a friend with Spina Bifida whose kidneys failed about 5 years ago and he's been on 3x a week dialysis ever since. He's doing VERY well. Kidney failure isn't always the end even for people whose lives are already limited by other medical issues.

We can't really choose our time to go. Sometimes it is best. I will send some positive thoughts your way. Hope he is doing better soon.

I'm sorry to hear this but I have to tell you my opinion with all honesty. I understand how you feel and I wish I could hold on to those people who have left me. But i think your friend is suffering and he's in a lot of pain. When I saw my cousin who had cancer suffering too much, I didn't want to hold on to him any longer. I just want him to be with God. He didn't deserve the pain. He deserved to be in peace with our Creator.

@Toniganzon I do know your right, I know I am being selfish wanting him here with us. I just care about him so much and I am really going to miss him. He was such a light to everyone, so happy and full of life. But if he is hurting I don't want to keep him here for my happiness. That would be awful of me.

Your special friend sounds like he could use all the prayers we can send his way. To bad he is in the hospital with his kidneys shutting down. Prayers going out to him.

@Daljinder Yeah I did. We were going to make sure he got to church but he never called and last night I found out why at Bible study. He's been in the hospital for weeks now. =( Thank you for praying for him.

my 12 year old daughter was born with kidney failure. She held on about 4 years before needing dialysis and spend 8 years on dialysis before receiving a kidney transplant 1 year ago. I will be praying for the best for your friend and hope that dialysis or transplant are on option.

I will pray. As long as nothing else goes wrong, they may be able to put him on kidney dialysis. Failed kidneys are not always the end.

I pray that he gets well soon. I just rented a house to man and his dad lives with them, he lost one leg and went into the hospital for it to be cut and cleaned again, poor thing.
