We went and visited my friend Shawn yesterday. Within just a week’s time, so much changed. He went from doing everything he could to fight this cancer last week to being moved to Hospice House this week. He was talkative and seemed so sure he was going to beat this stuff last week. Then yesterday, he was so weak. I think he knew we were there, but didn’t have the strength to keep his eyes open, much less have the strength to speak. He was moving his lips, trying to tell his aunt what he needed but no sound was coming out. I just can’t believe the change. It just wasn’t the Shawn we always knew. I pray that he can pull through and regain his strength, I really do. It was so hard seeing him like that. Please send up some prayers for Shawn.
Sending up lots of prayers for our friend, Shawn. I know it’s hard for you to see him like this, Christy, and I know this may sound insensitive and maybe crass to some people, but Shawn is growing by leaps and bounds right now, spiritually. I know he is. I pray for a recovery for him, but if that is not to be, I hope he finds wonderful lessons and a lifetime of peace.
