Default Prayer for my brother

Hi All,
I would like you to remember my brother in prayer. As you know he has been a C-5 quad for thirty years when they only gave him five after his accident. Each day he has made it past those five years has been a miracle and we are thankful for each day. For the last ten years he has lived on kidneys that are not funtioning as they should. It has now gotten to the point where he bounces between the third and fourth stages of kidney failure. I know there are some in the group that have medical knowlege so you will know what I am saying when I say his output is now down to less than 900cc's a day with an intake of over 3000cc's. He is in a lot of pain and he is ready to go home...he has told me this on many occasions this past month. I just want you to pray that he will not suffer and that God will help ease the pain. I do not like seeing him in so much pain and unfortunate, as it is, many of the pain meds are processed through the kidneys and it adds to the problem. He is taking some valium but this interferes with his ability to breath...so he is really stuggeling. I do not want to let him go but I do not want him to hurt either. Please pray that God will have his way in my brother's life. Thank you!!

Hugz,
Bill
