prayer request

Hey everyone. I have a prayer request. One of my brother-in-law's dads is starting hospice care (for those of you who may not know, this is something to make people more comfortable as they die, they are able to stay in their home and there is a nurse that comes to them, which makes it easier on the families as well). He has been battling cancer for a while now, and it has spread throughout his body including his heart and liver. This is a really hard time of year for our family to begin with, and with this, it just makes it that much harder. 5 years ago this month, my family decided to do hospice care with my mom, and once treatment is stopped, we know how quickly the disease can progress. They said that at most, he has 3 months left. Please pray for my brother-in-law and his family as well as for my sister. And that my brother-in-law's dad would be able to be pain free in his last days. Thank you.

Rebecca
