Life threatening Injuies

  • I am having trouble coming to grips with the injury of my oldest brother who already with Parkinsins has taken a backwards fall down three steps taking a severe blow to the back of the head.      We thought - - as it turned out the bump on the head was one thing but he also compressed his brain stem in the fall.

    With swelling of the Brain he has lost a portion of the Frontal Righ Lobe and is as yet unable to breath on his own.

    This is a guy that introduced me to camping in the woods along with the phase that when you leave "you always leave it better than when you found it"  This is what I have passed on to my kids and will I hope be around to pass along to my Grand kids.

    I've asked God in his judgement to bring my Brother back to a reasonable health that he may be able to continue and enjoy life but with Parkinsins I think I may be asking a lot even thou I know it is well within God Power, I've also asked for God to quick and mercifull of which I am feeling guilt for having even thought it.

    Please be with me and family in prayer.

    Thank You All and May God Bless You.

    Kimberly Brocklehurst Don't feel guilt because you want your brother's suffering eased. The Divine does have a plan to bring us all back, but there's no reason to beat yourself up because you want Him/Her to heal your brother or to make his transition peaceful, These are thing...  more
