Prayer Request

Praying for your Dad, you and all your family.

He giveth more grace when the burdens grow greater,
He sendeth more strength when the labors increase;
To added affliction He addeth His mercy;
To multiplied trials, His multiplied peace.

When we have exhausted our store of endurance,
When our strength has failed ere the day is half done,
When we reach the end of our hoarded resources,
Our Father's full giving is only begun.

Fear not that thy need shall exceed His provision,
Our God ever yearns His resources to share;
Lean hard on the arm everlasting, availing;
The Father both thee and thy load will upbear.

His love has no limit; His grace has no measure.
His pow'r has no boundary known unto men;
For out of His infinite riches in Jesus,
He giveth, and giveth, and giveth again!

My dad is a member here and may be the only member that uses his real name, Nick Caprinolo as his screen name. Some of you may know him so I thought this should be posted here.

Several months ago he suffered a couple of strokes and has developed post stroke dementia. In addition, he fell a few times and is currently in a rehab center, but not doing very well.

He has not been eating and no matter what we take for him, he doesn't like it. He is getting weaker each day and is unable to do physical therapy.

My step-mother is a champ and visits him every day, but at 83, it is a lot on her too.

To those so inclined, your prayers would be appreciated for them both.

Thank you all.
I sold your Dad a scope back in 2021. I found him to be a truly nice and honest man. My heart goes out to you and your family. I have had both of parents in similar situations and totally understand how difficult it is. My thoughts and prayers will be with you all. One thing learned the hard way, is not to get too far "ahead of your skis" - which means don't plan how things will happen, they never do. Don't plan, period. Take things as they come and make decisions as you need to. God's speed!
