Hello,
My name is Joe and I have just lost my Dad. He died in my arms at home on Friday April 13th 2007. It was a pretty traumatic passing for me. He did not go peacefully. He was coughing up massive amounts of blood and lung tissue. I tried to perform CPR until paramedics arrived but I knew it was no use he was already gone. It is something I will live with the rest of my life. God works in mysterious ways. My dad had lung cancer on his right lung in two places. He also needed both His hips and knees replaced. He was 88 years old and had a wonderful life. I lived with my Dad and cared for Him the last several years of his life. I cooked, helped dress, and bathed Him. He wanted me to stay with Him so He would not have to go to a nursing home. I was also caring for my Mom before we lost her last July. Twenty one days after they had celebrated their sixty-eighth wedding anniversary. We lived off His social security and his VA pension. He was a combat wounded WWII veteran in the navy. I also have a seven year old little boy. I am semi retired from the music, film, and television industry. I did odd jobs here and there when time permitted to supplement our income. We lived in a one bedroom retirement center apartment. Now that my Daddy is gone I don't know what I am going to do about a place to live or pay for my Childs Christian school every month. I was doing Gods will by caring for my Mother and Father. I am not asking for money! I am asking everybody to pray for me to find a way that I can work from home and be there for my child. I am also a patented inventor and have been faithfully working on a project for almost seven years. I am due to be on the Home Shopping Network sometime in May or June of this year. God gave me this idea and many others. I give Him all the glory. I also have several other inventions that are in the same category that I will go to market with after the Instasip goes to market. I also want to start a working farm to work with children with mental and physical disabilities. Please pray for me and my little boy Jacob. I hope all have a blessed and wonderful day.
Sincerely,
Joe and Jacob

Dear Joe and Jacob,
God bless you for sharing such a touching prayer request. I am agreeing with you in prayer that you will be able to work from home and still be able to be there for your little boy. Also, God bless you for caring for your parents. I wish you all the luck in the world. God will help you, I am sure.
In Jesus' Precious, Holy Name,
Angela
You have my deepest sympathy for losing your parents. I have lost both of my parents, and I know how very difficult it is.
