Dealing with a Child's Terminal Illness
How do you support a friend or loved one when they find out that their child has a terminal illness? What do you do? What do you say? Is there really anything that can give comfort when they are faced with what many parents fear most?
I served with an extraordinary woman not long ago. I counted her a dear friend. Her youngest son was having some difficulties and upon receiving the results of the test, discovered that their sweet little boy had a very serious illness. I will never forget her telling me that she didn’t feel strong enough to go through this trial. Weeks turned into months and months turned into years. They had some ups and they had their share of downs. They were ultimately told that the doctors had done everything they knew how to do and to go home and enjoy the rest of their son’s life.
I know there were many tears shed. I am certain there were sleepless nights. There were prayers and fasts sent to heaven on their behalf. I watched her at the funeral for her sweet angel. She cried only a little as she walked into the building but something incredible happened as she stepped up to the microphone to speak. I saw a strength come over her that she had developed over the entire experience. She smiled genuinely and her face radiated joy. She testified of the Savior’s reality and His closeness during such a difficult time.
I recalled her words from the beginning and was privileged to witness the miracle of the Lord’s constant support. She was changed. She looked forward to the promises of the Savior, knowing that her family was sealed together for eternity.
Sometimes we believe that there is no way to combat the heartache we feel. We may feel powerless and that disabling fear can either draw us closer to the Savior’s comfort or send us into a frenzy of poor choices as we try to cope with our sorrow.
Mourning is an essential part of dealing with any kind of loss. Giving oneself time to grieve is important but so is doing your best to rely on the Savior who has power to heal and comfort. Elder Russell M. Nelson taught, “Death separates the spirit and the body which are the soul of man. That separation evokes pangs of sorrow and shock among those left behind. The hurt is real. Only its intensity varies. Some doors are heavier than others. The sense of tragedy may be related to age. Generally, the younger the victim, the greater the grief.” Further into his talk, he teaches, “We need not look upon death as an enemy. With full understanding and preparation, faith supplants fear. Hope displaces despair. The Lord said, “Fear not even unto death; for in this world your joy is not full, but in me your joy is full.” (D&C 101:36.) He bestowed this gift: “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” (John 14:27.) 1
I am certain there are times when the darkness and despair are overwhelming, when we do not have the strength to watch our loved one’s suffering one more day. I also know that the Savior came to remedy what we could not do for ourselves. Let the hope of having an eternal family through temple covenants be a beacon of light to hold onto through the violent storm of loss.

My husband left me for another woman a few months ago and ever since then my life has been filled with pain and agony because my husband was my first love whom I have spent my entire life with. A friend and also a colleague from work told me he saw some testimonies of a spiritual counselor called Doctor Muna, He can bring back lover within some few days. Ridiculously, I laughed it out and said I am not interested. But for friendship’s sake, she consulted this God sent man on my behalf and to my greatest surprise, Immediately after 12 hours, my husband called me for the very first time for over 7 months saying “I miss you babe and I’m so sorry for everything I made you went through” I couldn’t say a word but cried over the phone and hanged up. We are back together and living Happily together again. To be honest, I still can’t believe it, because it’s highly unbelievable. Thank you DOCTOR MUNA for bringing back my love and also to my SELFLESS FRIEND. Laura, who interceded on my behalf. For anyone who might need help of this wonderful spiritual counselor, here is the email address: marvelspelltemple@gmail.com, Also add him on WhatsApp: +2347035449257

My process for recovery has been kind of a bumpy process because of the fake recovery agents I encountered. However with the support given to me by RIGHT WAY LAW RECOVERY SERVICES, I have collectively succeeded in recouping my locked up BTC Assets valued at $326,790 within the space of 48 hours !! Or rather the team worked hard on my behalf, I only had to provide them with a few details regarding my investment with the fraud company and they did the rest for me. Prior to meeting RIGHT WAY LAW RECOVERY FIRM, I had met a few recovery agents as well, that only seemed to care about their service fee similar to what the fraud company was doing to me and at some point I almost gave up the believe that I would ever get back my money but today I’ve done full circle to come back here and give my own thankful review since I learnt about the team through the many reviews on here. I feel ready to take on the world with my new found awareness and RIGHT WAY LAW RECOVERY on my team! … I wish they would create more awareness platforms and opportunities to help enlighten more people about crypto and how best to navigate the digital financial landscape, this will surely help to reduce the fast spreading fraudulent activities going on here & there and save potential investors from falling prey!. Glad I know it now and I can teach it to my children so they wont make the same mistakes I did. You can also contact them via their official Email address: RIGHTWAYLAWRECOVERYSERVICE@GMAIL.COM
