Got a prayer request from the wife of an elderly man.

The elderly man is in frail health and his wife who is quite a bit younger and much healthier is scared to take the poor old fellow to the hospital. She thinks, with good reason, the hospital will kill him. Canada has MAID (medical assistance in dying) and I have had several family members had their life shortened by 'medical experts'.

He is such a sweet old man I would hate to see him go even as I know that death will call for us all at some point.

They practice assisted suicide and euthanasia in Canada? Wow, that is evil stuff, Dr. Kevorkian. One thing is how do you know they're telling the truth when they say the person wants to die? I don't trust these people.

@Jokersswild Yes there is euthanasia being done on humans in Canada. One of the benefits of socialised medicine. It is cheaper to kill than to heal.

@markinkansas Knowing him he doesn't want to leave yet. He loves his family and he loves his church. He just has a bad cold.
