********************************************************************

Hi yall, I was comforted when I heard that my mom was surrounded by people of God when she was on her dying days........It still hurts, don't get me wrong.

This morning I remembered all those cancer patients at Ocean Road Hospital who have been referred from other hospitals............who is there to comfort them? Who is there to cry with them? How many people really pray for them and their families? I just mentioned Ocean Road hospital to represent all other hospitals.

I guess I was called for this, I ask my friends for supports both spiritually and materially. I do this in honor of all those who were there for my mom. God bless you all mightly in Jesus name!!Amen
