I am sorry for the loss of you mother. AS someone who has been faced with the decision to end life support..its a very touchy subject. My daughter was on life support for five days. In those 5 days numerous brain scans were done on her. There was no blood flow to her brain stem. She did have very slight blood flow to the upper part of her brain, but without the brainstem you dont breathe. I chose after much consideration to let her go. She was never going to recover, she was never going to do anything but lay in that hospital bed for the rest of her life. She would never smile or even open her eyes. She was Brain-dead. I disconnected life support and she died in my arms on April 14,1998. \nNow if someone had brain activity and there was a chance they could come "back" then I believe it is murder. Its hard to lose a loved one. Nobody wants to be put in that situation. But would you mother have wanted to "live" like that for the rest of her life??  The reason your stepfather gave was crap..and hopefully he didnt mean it. Because the lack of money is no reason to disconnect someones lifesupport. Maybe that was his way of rationalizing the HUGE responsibility he had to undertake...and perhaps a way to hide his sorrow.

God blessed me by offering me hope in one of my darkest times.  My boyfriend passed away a month ago Saturday and Ihave been taking it really hard. I felt like my life had lost meaning and then my bestfriend was telling me how stressed she was with her bussiness and I offered to help her.  Then I was talking to another boyfriend and he said he wants give us the money to open another office in Dubai.  This was totally what I needed to help me feel like I mattered to someone and I was here making a difference.  God knew how I felt and he put this into play.

Please know that you are in my morning prayers.  I know your pain over your losses seem unbearable, but remember that He is holding you up, and even when you don't feel Him, that is when He is closest!  It took someone else's pain to remind of that this morning and I hope and pray as you grieve your loss that you can keep that thought in your mind.  It was explained to me that we have at least forty thousand thoughts a day, and that if you can keep those thoughts positive, your body and emotion will respond.  What a man thinks in his heart, so is he, right?\n\nMay God help you thru this time, may you keep your eyes toward heaven, may God use your grandchild to bless you for years to come, and may He help you raise her in grace and gratefulness for the opportunity to serve your daughter's memory.  Father, please enable a good report from the Drs to encourage this sister in the Lord thru her trials.  May she see many blessings thru her call for prayer, strentgthen her faith and trust in You as she walks the same path we all must take for your names sake. Amen.

Hi Cobb! What a story you have. I'm glad you're ok now and that you have strong faith. I've never had a near death experience. I thank God all the time for the life I have.    Take care,   Sincerely

Faith, Honey, faith. I am so sorry for your loss, but she does hear you as does God. Whenever you are out, do ever see something out of the blue that she liked? Sometimes they let us know in very subtle ways. It can be in the smallest things that we take for granted every day. You can see her in the innocent beauty of a childs smile or a picture of a snow-white dove. A rainbow or a picture of a rainbow. Whenever I need to know that God is hearing me, I ask to see a rainbow or a dove and lo and behold, I will see one even if I'm not looking for it. Look for her in everyday things that make you feel warm and happy and you will find her. She is watching you from above. Also, being as you have found Yahoo Answers, even if it was before your daughter passed away, you were brought here for a reason. God knows that you need friends now and you have found friendship and hopefully comfort here. We are like a family here on YA and we do our best to support each other. If God was not listening, you would not have found your way here or to any other means of comfort and support. The people here on YA are the best and some of the most forgiving, caring and loving people I've ever had the pleasure and the honor to meet. Keep your faith and know that your daughter is in the arms of Jesus now and he feels your pain as we do as well. You are in my prayers and if you need to talk, you may send me a message. I'm a mother too and I know how strong a mother's love is. Don't worry, God is in control and you will meet with your daughter again. Just look around. She is in every flower, gentle breeze, every act of kindness, in every beautiful sunrise and sunset but most of all, she is in your heart forever. God bless, sweetie. I'll pray for you, we all will.

May all work out for you in the end. You and your daughter are in my thoughts.\n\n<As of Feb 7, 2006>\nLife's a tough thing. It takes only a few seconds for disaster to cave in all around you, but to dig your way out takes what seems like an eternity. Anyways, I'm glad to hear that the worst is over, and that both of you are getting well. Please continue these updates on the comments as your situation develops; I want to stay in the know on this.\n\n<As of Feb 8, 2006>\nLook's like you've gotten yourselves out of a tough bind! I'm glad to hear that things are looking up after a grueling ordeal. When someone that you love is hurt, it's tough on the mind, body, and heart, and it gets even worse if you happen to feel it, too. You and your daughter have shown great courage and strength throughout this, and I'm glad that all of us here have been able to help you out in your time of need in one way or another. Try not to overexert yourselves if you're not feeling as well as you were prior to this accident, and I hope that what remains of the road to recovery comes with plenty of shortcuts! ^_^

What an amazing event. I hope you treasure it for the rest of your life as a message of God's love for all his creatures.  I believe in angels, and I am convinced that all of us act as angels sometimes.  I know I have been blessed plenty of times by people whom I know, who have helped me in several ways. ALso, I have been touched by complete strangers who have actually saved my life in many ways.  God bless you

I pray that God protects you with his precious blood and that His angels are all around you.  I also pray that nothing goes wrong and that God is in the doctors hands while performing your surgery.   I have a prayer request.  My grandmother had a stroke in May and she is not doing very well.  Please just pray that she will get better soon so that she will live to see her 80th birthday on October 20th.

Dear Lord Jesus, I lift up to you Daisy's son and husband.  You know the needs here and I ask that You meet these needs, Lord.  Help Daisy's husband to stay safe in Iraq and guide and direct him every day so that he may be able to return home soon and safe.  Please help Daisy's son with his ADHD.  Please help the lad to stop being so sad and to start being happy.  Please ease the pain that he is feeling from missing his father so much and please give him the encouragement in knowing that he will see his dad again soon.  Please be with Daisy as she takes care of three children.  Give her the energy, the strength, and the patience that she needs.  I ask these things in Jesus' Holy Name, Amen.\n\nGod bless you Daisy.  I hope your husband returns home soon safe and sound.

You and she are in my prayers.  I had a really awesome best friend who went into a diabetic coma in her sleep (she was type I DM) a few years ago and never came to.  I know the feelings you are experiencing and only God can comfort those who suffer because He truly knows their hearts and what is going on.  I pray you are able to find comfort =)

I came home on evening from work and my wife and children were not home yet. Shortly a neighbor came to get me and said there was an accident. He could hardly tell me it was my family so I new it was bad. When I got there (not far from home) My wife was unconscious and my children banged up. The medics were working to save my wife's life. \nAfter some days in a coma my wife got quite a bit better. Still today suffers some effects. After wards I tried to contact all who helped and found out someone was on the scene before anyone else even the from the house by where it happened. It is very possible they saved my wife's life but no one knows who it was, how they got there or where they went. I still don't know. I can't say for sure but I wonder. The Bible says the angels are ministering spirits for us. Could it have been?

Father, we hold Irina up to you in prayer. You are our God and we trust in You. We ask for your healing hand and your mighty arm to save Irina. We ask in Jesus name...AmenJer 29:11-13\nFor I know the thoughts I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will heaken unto you. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.\nPsalm 27:14\nWait for the Lord: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine heart: be strong and take heart: wait I say on the Lord.\nPsalm 46:10\nBe still and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.\nPsalm 34:17-19\nThe Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart: and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivered him out of them all.\nProverbs 3:5-8\nTrust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil. IT SHALL BE HEALTH TO THY NAVEL, AND MARROW TO THY BONES.\n\nGod bless you also, friend of Irina

I will pray for him.... I have seen this work, but you have to know God is powerful enough and not just say "it might work"..... God can't wait to help his followers get healed... as long as the spirit is flowing, who knows what will happen....
