A fellow dem needs some prayers or good thoughts
I have been a long time member of this great community and I have never asked for anything. I am an atheist, but a dear friend of mine can use all the positive energy that the good folks at this site can send her way. Here is a great saying for fellow atheists "The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing... not healing, not curing... that is a friend who cares." I think for a non believer that sums it up nicely. Here is a link to the tragic happenings that befell a wonderful compassionate friend of mine. http://www.shelbynews.com/articles/2009/08/18/news/doc4a8a231b2e1bb236757148.txt Again I have never asked much of my brothers and sisters here at this wonderful site. What ever your beliefs are please send them her way. She and her family deserve it, trust me she is one of the good ones.

Peace and thanks in advance to all you wonderful people.

Max

8. The accident happened not very far from where I live...
Methodist Hospital is one of the best. I don't belong to any particular religion, but I know first hand what prayer can do.

Your friends will be in my thoughts.

15. please consider that one needn't necessarily buy into a belief in God or dogmatic
claptrap, to believe that *love* coupled with compassion can more often than not, heal people.

Happy to send the best vibes I possibly am able for your dear friend.

17. how awful... things can change so much in an instant
Prayers going out for everybody involved. :hug: Please keep us updated on your friend and, if you hear about them, about the others, too.

I'm so sorry. It's terrible when bad things happen, but it hurts even more when they happen to good people.

19. For your friend...
I will ask that God hold her and her family in the light and send comfort and healing.

For you since you are not a believer and I don't want to push religion at you, I send all of my own thoughts and good wishes for your comfort and peace of mind. If there is anything else you need, please do not hesitate to ask. I wish for all of you, as much help as you need and all the positive energy you can use.
