Dear Heavenly Father
Please pray for my boyfriend John. About a week ago he got back the results on the Stomach Cancer he's been fighting since 2022. They stated the cancer is not active right now but cautioned him seriously. He was bleeding and vomiting blood so they gave him a bunch of meds to help with this. Father please forgive me for all my sins. Father please continue to lay your healing hands on John and rid of the cancer. Give him strength to eat properly, Drs said no sugars, fiber, fatty foods, no alcohol etc. I do my best to not tell him things not to do. I listen. It seems like he's a bit more serious and understands. Also, most importantly two things tonight. He has been suffering from combat PTSD (20+ years in military/intelligence deployed 4 times to wars, Afghanistan and Iraq). It seems he is having a trigger today. He hasn't been able to sleep. 1. Please give him strength to rest and have peace. 2. He was stating he is sad depressed and a lone. I repeated and said I love you, I am here to listen, you are my best friend. He said to me I don't want to be drama. I said you are not. I love you. The next things is we were talking updates on the house I currently staying in half the time and other half his nephew for now. We discussed his brother as recently his nephew was over at the house cleaned the house etc and came back to a mess due to his blind brother Mike who is an alcoholic and his friends drink not to mention his gf smokes put and they do at the house make a mess never clean and also takes advantage of John. Johns father who died of cancer bought the home when they moved to States from Scotland his father worked military intelligence. After his father died who John took care of while he was in HS. His mother never helped, his brother Mike never did and his two half brothers from his mom's first marriage never did. John has always helped others in family no one ever helped him. After his father died. His mother didnt want him, he was alone. He worked 3 jobs joined the military. Has worked and paid off the house that everyone thought it was their own when no one contributed. A few years ago his half brothers asked for their share on the house. He got an attorney and paid them their share and he gave his blind brother Mike 25 percent of house bc he's his only full blooded brother and is blind. Father Johns father asked him to take care of his mom and brother Mike when he's gone. Johns religious and kept his word. He paid a third of his salary to his mom whom treated him horribly never wanted him treated his brother Mike better. Then during pandemic his mom passed. Then now his blind brother Mike since I've been in and out of the house he goes to every weekend takes advantage of John. Would drink all the alcohol John would buy him food. Now he would share this food with his friends while they drank the alcohol John bought with the house John owns and pays for all utilities etc. John got angry while he was getting cancer treatments his brother piled up bags and bags of empty alcohol bottles mind you while he was fighting for his own life his brother just drank and uses him as an ATM machine. John tried telling his brother he wasn't well. On top of that he allowed his friends and girlfriend take advantage. His brother would blame for things I never did and tried to sabotage our relationship. This went on for a year plus. Up until recently Johns nephew ex marine is helping at the house and when he got angry at the house which his brothers girlfriend cooks uses things there smokes pot and probably drinks doesn't clean and John said that was enough to his brother Mike. Now Father please show John he's done what he can and his brothers drinking problem is for his brother to take accountability. Johns working like crazy still trying to take care of himself with the PTSD/cancer. I understand his brother needs help bc he's blind but Johns not there to be taken advantage of. Mike is 56 John is 54. It hurts me...I'm protective of John but had to step back and Father that's when you showed him how he needs his brother to take responsibility. Now I'm praying asking you to let John know his father would be proud of John. That his father would not like that John is being taken advantage of and how John needs to focus on his health. In so many ways we both have dealt with similar things. In 2015 I suffered 2 strokes and still working at picking up the pieces in my own health and life. I'm sorry I'm rambling. I here on my knees I need your undying grace love and support Father. Thank you for all that you have done for John and I. I trust in you and give it to you to handle. I will continue to love on John like crazy and encourage him. We love you. In Jesus' name. Amen.
