Never said or implied it wasn't. I simply gave you a heads up on this site. Not sure why people seem to not grasp this basic concept and twist my words.

It happens to me all the time, Ugly. I tell you, lately, I've spent more time defending myself than helping the OP. It's a sad thing. :( I feel your frustration.

Your snowman is very angry. :) I will never watch Frosty the same way again. ;)

Dear Joanna,

It does not matter what is the belief of your friend is, I can also see someone who needs god in his life, and God is a god of love, mercy and forgiveness.

I pray that God reveals himself to your friend and touched him and make him realized that he needs God in his life. God will forgive him.

Try reading my posts if you aren't understanding why it matters. And they are not simply asking for other people to pray. If you read the OP.

Just one more clarification, my friend, he's on lifesupport, noly because he's an organ donor. But, there's ONE IMPULSE on the maschines screen traveling constantly... and no one knows what this impulse means... but I do. I presume.. thats why I called everyone, including you, good people, to pray with me... the chanses of him waking up are slim to none.. this is not a matter of will he live, but in fackt, i beleave, theres a battle going on in him.. a battle for his soul... thats why i pray to God to be merciful to my friend (and english is not my native language, so try not to missunderstand me)

I wish we had known this in the beginning. I could pray more fervently for him.
Oh, dear Lord God. Please may we hear the outcome of this soon. ~ Bless you ~

I am truly sorry UGLY. ~ There is no excuse really for my reaction.
It is going to take time to get to know how each person talks here.
I am not here daily and it is going to be a while to know why and how
each one speaks. When we can't hear the voice, and the tone, or even
accent of the one writing, it makes it difficult to know the poster.
I have made friends over the years online by calling them just to hear
their voice and let them know me. It helped a lot. No, I am not suggesting
we call people. This is just something that helped me and the other person
understand one another. I bet you think I am a stalker, uh oh... no, UGLY,
I am just a friend that gets misunderstood, just as you feel you are. At
least we aren't pushing one another down. LOL..... God bless you.

I spend more time having to apologize ~ And I am trying to be a part of
the family of God here. If I have offended you too, I ask you to please
forgive me. God bless ~

Has anyone heard from Joanna regarding her friend who
was on life support from his suicide attempt ? Please let
me know, if you have any news. Thanks and God bless all.

Every hospital has a pastoral care department. You can make an appointment right at the hospital, in or out of the room. They have both Catholic priests and Protestant ministers on the team. They are trained in the support of grief/stressed family members and friends.
Protestant pastoral care workers do a good job, but you didn't say your friend was Catholic or not. If he was ever baptized Catholic, he can receive the Anointing of the Sick. All his sins get forgiven, he doesn't have to be conscious if you read James 5 carefully. Obviously you want the best for him.

The essence of this tradition, found in scripture, has not changed in 2000 years, and can only be administered by a priest.
