Dear God,

My brother in law's surgery did not go well. The blockage was/is like concrete, plaque so hard that it cannot be removed. He can't have surgery again because it would be too dangerous. If there is another blockage, they will only be able to manage his pain.

My sister and brother in law have lived a love affair for 40 years. Their love for one another shows all the time. Tonight as each person kissed my brother in law good night in the ICU, my sister said simply, "I get the last kiss."

I have observed these lovebirds for years. Their eyes twinkle when they are together. Oh they can get mad but nothing lasts long with them. They are a wonderful model to family, friends and strangers. They live out the agape love you came to bring.

Bless Max
and Debbie,
O Lord;
let their love
hold them fast
during this
difficult time.
May they experience
the love
of heaven
that lives
inside them.
May they
draw strength
from your well.

Love, Andrea
