Hey guys!
I'm Madi, I'm 16 years old and I was wondering if the teens on this site had any words of encouragement they would like to share with me.
My grandma is dying, she has a lot of things wrong with her. She lives in Mexico though, so I can't see her.
My mom is in Mexico there with my grandma, she won't be home for Christmas. We don't know when she's coming home.
Usually, when I'm upset, I talk to my mom and hug her. But since we can't afford to talk to her right now, I'm turning to you guys.

hello madi! i feel for you!
my grandpa is also in the hospital for five days already. he is fighting for his life.
i dont know how much is his chance to survive, as we are sorrowful for his condition we also have problems in supporting him financially.
i felt helpless because im still a student. all i could do is look after my grandpa at the hospital.
i just went home yesterday to sleep at home.i have been awake yesterday for 24 hours.
im praying for you.hope you could also pray for our family.

dont worry! God cares for us.

All we can do is pray/hope it is in God's will that grandma gets better. I can understand the difficulty of being helpless when it comes to the mortality of our loved ones. The scriptures are tools we use to not only learn and built a relationship with our Savior Jesus Christ, but for comfort in times of need. Let me know if you need help in finding these (comforting) scriptures and I can steer you in the right direction. :)
