My ex-husband is dying. I don't think he will last much more than a week at this point. He is the father of my 2 children, daughters who are in their 30's.

He was and has been up until his latest hospitalization abusive to my girls and one grandson both verbally, emotionally and in one instance physically in trying to trip our grandson after they had a verbal argument. He has not been an easy individual to deal with since the beginning of our marriage.

My daughters have had issues all their lives over their father. I have tried to mitigate as much as I possibly can for them, but it was never enough and I probably should have done more than I did. I do regret that at times.

I'm asking for prayers and healing thoughts for my daughters and grandsons that they can get through this time as easily as possible. And I'm asking for the same for my ex, as I believe that he will be judged by the only entity who can judge for all eternity, God.

Thank you all for your generosity of spirit and compassion.
