Suwaree, my wife wants to say ‘GOOD BYE’ to you.

Dear Brothers, Sisters and Friends,

“First of all, I would like to thank you for your prayers during my battle with cancer for these six years. Lots of miracles have become testimonies to many people throughout these years. Glory be to the Lord who granted me peace to calm each storm, and the privilege of witnessing for Him till the last breath of my life!

Since I have learned that my cancer had regained its growth and spread all over my lung-bone-brain-liver and adrenal gland, I believe my time has come--even though I never smoked! I thank God for the ability to accept the fact that I am a terminally-ill person, but I am not a victim. I am a VICTOR through Christ who gave His life for me that I may live eternally. I would rather light a candle than complain about darkness through my testimonies of God’s miracles and encourage faith among brothers and sisters through my giving thanks to the Lord in all circumstances.

Perhaps this is the best time to say “Good Bye” to you before I lose my memory. My physical body may be slowly declining, but as I get closer to Him, I feel that my spirit is growing stronger. Perhaps the wall between the spiritual realm and human world is getting thinner. There will be no more treatment for me, so hospice care at home is my choice. Our focus moves on to the hope that every day will be the best it can be. I do not know how long I can live, but making life as comfortable and fulfilling as possible is my husband’s primary focus. Please excuse him from all activities he loves or used to do to watch over me. This is a time I need him most. My last prayer request to you is that I will enjoy each day without pain and depart comfortably at the end of my life’s journey... At this point, I am happy to tell you that since I have accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Savior, I never walked alone, for He walks with me each day!

Well…if you and I never meet again this side of heaven, I will meet you on that beautiful shore!”
