Needing your prayers

I had planned a romantic weekend with my MM (you may remember last week's posts), but I got a phone call from him on Saturday morning...his father suffered a massive heart attack while at his house on Friday night. I have not spoken to him since Saturday morning because he has been surrounded nonstop by family. I do not know the status of his father's condition and I am worried sick. He (my MM) was completely distraught when I spoke with him and there was really nothing I could do. This (so far) has been the hardest emotionally to deal with....not being part of the family or even being an outright "girlfriend", I could not go to the hospital to show support or even hug him and cry with him. Believe me, though...I have been crying a lot for him. He asked me to continue to be there for him and to say prayers for his Dad and their family. I told him I would do that....and I'm asking my friends here on this board to help me with this.

Please remember my MM in your prayers and I will update the board as soon as I know something.

I am so sorry. I'm sure he is going through so much turmoil. Know that even though you can't be with him, you still give him strength. I'm not a Christian and I don't pray, but my thoughts are with him as he goes through this most difficult time.

Thank you so much for the prayers and sweet words. I still haven't heard anything, but I will definitely keep you all posted. The worry is tearing me apart.

We're with you Honey and MM and family too. Hang in there. Just keep yourself focused on praying for them, whatever the outcome. Hugs!

I still haven't heard anything....It's all I can do not to call his cell phone...I've already left messages there and on his voice mail at work (just in case he called in to pick them up). I HATE feeling so helpless. I wish so much that I could do something. And it's so hard to try to be upbeat when I go home when my heart is so knotted up.

Thanks for being there for me, everyone.

I'm sorry I am being so obsessive about this, but I've still heard absolutely nothing. I know he has had to have had a moment to himself at some point over the course of the last two days (bathroom break, driving the car, etc.) but I've heard nothing. I think I'm going to go cold turkey on the phone calls and emails hoping he'll eventually contact me, mostly because I don't want to put any pressure on what quite certainly is a stressful situation. It's so frustrating having no communication, though. Sometimes this MM/OW thing really stinks. He knows (by my previous voice mails and emails) how worried I am...we both cried together on the phone when he called Saturday morning and how tender-hearted I am. Keep me in your thoughts and MM's Dad in your prayers.

Also, help me keep my chin up and be strong.

I spoke with MM this morning....Dad is doing much better. He is being flown back to his home state to be in a local hospital where he can see his own doctors. Thanks for all of the prayers and positive thoughts. They are really working.
