2Ch 16:12 And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease [was] exceeding [great]: yet in his disease he sought not to the LORD, but to the physicians.
We have two choices facing us.
1) Continue treatment which will prolong life a few weeks and will more than likely cause additional suffering and will end in death.
or
2) End treatment which, in all liklihood, will hasten death but will spare my wife much suffering.
Asa trusted the doctors rather than God. And died. We have chosen to trust God. Treatment, chemo... meds... all may fail. But God will not fail. She may recover... and He will not have failed us. She may be completely healed... and He will not fail us. Or... She may go on to be with Lord, but, if this is His will, then ...He has not failed us.
Thank you all for your encouraging words and for your prayers. Special thanks to Heavenly One. Your words were very helpful. We have discussed everything we know to discuss. All is well, and God is good.

Oh brother, I could cry at your words. You are so right....no matter what takes place, God will not fail you. I will continue praying for you both and for your family.
