Unhappy Prayers needed

Although I am not on 4Women that often (on YT ALL the time) I am requesting prayers. I found out this morning that my 43 yr old cousin (Douglas) had a massive stroke last night. He is in Mass General Hosp in Boston...He has a wife and 4 little girls. The doctors don't give him much hope...when the doctors tried to remove the blood clot it broke apart leaving small clots through out his brain. He is unresponsive and paralyzed. My heart is breaking right now...If any of you on here have prayer chains would you please put Doug and his family on them. My Aunt and Uncle are just beside themselves with worry and heartbreak. His sister is on her way here from Calif and should arrive around 7 pm tonight..Please,please....Doug and his family could use all your prayers right now.

Thank you all

Thank you very much...there is nothing stronger than the power of prayer...I really do pray he comes out of this but the doctors feel there is no hope and that he won't make the day...I just pray his sister gets here before....

Thank you so much

If our good Lord needs him more than his presence here on earth is needed, then we pray "his will be done" and that his sister is able to make it home in time.

Thank you so much for all your prayers..At this time I don't have anymore news. I'm sure the last thing on his parents minds are making phone calls to everyone which, we understand...I do believe in miracles as I have seen them happen...however, the doctors don't give me much hope...

Thank you all....very much.

Oh my!! I just saw this. This is terrible. And such a young man too!! I will be praying for your cousin and his family, that he make a miraculous recovery and that his family find peace in this moment of extreme sadness.

Morning Brenda,

Any updates? The links in the prayer chain now extend to Florida thanks to my sister! Still sending lots of prayers to you all and hoping that today provides some news - and that it's good news.

Brenda, have you any updates on your cousin? Prayers are being said all over the place for a miracle to happen, despite what the Drs. say. Know you, and his family are in our prayers!!
