no I fully understand it
but I also suffer from chronic pain
I want to be around to see my son graduate high school ,maybe get married
but I have been on borrowed time a long time ,and I do fear being helpless and crippled again and a burden to others
So if Christ is coming ,I hope its before then
or He lets me sleep before the pain in unmanageable

@rckt148 are you not going to be around for your son?

@Taiwaves I pray to be ,but sometimes when the pain is real bad, I can be just a little selfish and wish it would end ,
but if I am not around ,I have raised Daughters who have kids of their own that are now almost grown ,and all of them make me proud
SO in the event I am not around ( I have lived through 3 heart attacks )
I know my Girls will do an awesome job finishing the work I started .
I know they will miss me as I miss my Mom and Dad
but I also know they will be just fine .
I have already taught them to be self reliant and how to be self sufficient ,
My son is also pretty wise and needs little instruction ,
He will be fine
But I would like to at least hold on until he is married
but they all know none of us are promised tomorrow .
We have lost a lot of family members in the past few years
and I envied every one of them ,they are no longer in pain
