Many of you have asked about visiting Angela. I wish I could give you a better answer, but visiting with her right now is just not possible. Since we arrived this past Tuesday, Angela has been in a fairly rapid state of decline. She is not eating or drinking. She becomes agitated easily. If one can find anything positive out of this situation, the wonderful hospice care staff has managed to get her pain for the most part under control; this is something we were not able to do at home. This place has been a blessing. The staff is taking very good care of her.
While a visit with Angela is not possible at this time, you may visit with me or other family and friends in the family area.
Thanks again for every one's prayers and support.
David

It must be hard for you post that. It must be very hard to watch such a sad thing happen to your wife. I am so sorry you are having to go through all of this. I am praying though. Keep the faith as difficult as it is to watch someone you love go through this, in spite of it all, keep the faith. God has a plan. I am thinking of you often and praying for Angela all the time. Be strong David. Your words sound much more relaxed now that you have some help. That is truly a blessing.
God Bless You for being a Godly Husband.

"The Lord your God will sustain
you. He has made you and He will
carry you." (Isaiah 46:4) That
goes for Angela and for you, David.
We see God's love, David, through your steadfast,uncon-
ditional, sacrificial love for
Angela and your children. Love is our power just as it is God's
power.
Continuing to persevere in
petitioning our Lord to care for
all of you during this trial.
David,
We are praying for you and your family, and hope that tonight brings rest for all.
I am so sorry that you are going through this, but I am also so thankful that Angela has had you by her side during this journey.
Ours prayers are unending for you.

David and family,
I have no words tonight except...God Bless all of you...as much as it is getting harder to read these posts, it does not even come close to you have to writing them and witnessing Angela in the final stages of her life. She will soon be free of months of suffering and I am sure she will be greeted by her Mom and Dad!
Love, peace and HOPE,
Lowry
Good Morning,
David, I pray for strength for you as you stand/sit/lay next to Angela today.
Angela, you have fought your best fight and you have inspired many! All of us have many memories of very fun times we had with you and I will cherish each one. I will smile and laugh when I think of each of them b.c. we did have a good time.
Until we meet again....
Love, peace and HOPE,
Lowry
Praying for you, David as we get started on our day. I send my life's verse again as a reminder.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, lean not to your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths. Prov 3:5-6
I know He must seem to be so far away right now. But as I walk with you at times down this path, I see His hand at work in the form of family and friends and in precious Mrs. Sylvia, (nurse's aide). My prayer for you today, is that you can feel His presence more than you have ever felt it, that you can feel His touch. I've observed as Angela seems to be whispering to Him and He is reassuring her of His presence.
We love you with all our hearts.
Eugene & Debi
May you experience the shikinah glory of our Lord today. May you truly feel him with you in Angela's room as you sit with her. May his angels surround you and give you comfort. I pray that as the days pass that Angela will be taken into the presence of her King peacefully and that the evidence of seeing him will be reflected on her face so that you might know that she is with Him. I am praying for you always. May God be with you.
In the love of our sweet Jesus

We are praying so hard for you this morning. I know that your saddness is beyond description. On Dec 16,1963 God gifted the world with this wonderful being. Soon it will be time for her to return. We are all so thankful that she included us, there was so much to enjoy.
Love
Honie
This is for Kesa (Theresa)
I am so sorry that you have to endure the pain of losing your baby sister. Words can't even begin to express my saddness for you and your family. Why we can't even begin to imagine the understanding of this, God is with you and your family and will see you through this time. He is holding you and your family in the palm of His Hands. I wish I had words for you to make the pain go away, but all I can do pray and pray that you will feel God's love. God will give you the strength, just trust in Him.
With all my love,
Laurie
Thanks John Michael for the update...not exactly sure how the night went but know every time I woke up, I prayed not only for Angela but for all who are by her side during these final days!!
All I can do is to pray for strength for all of you.
Love, peace and HOPE,
Lowry
Once again our prayers are that Angela have the most comfortable day possible and that David finds the strenght that he needs to make the minutes & hours go by. I am also praying for those of you that have been by Angela's side for as long as I can remember. I know that your hearts ache at this time and that you all need to feels God's comforting strenght as well. Theresa, Steele, Tammy ,John Michael, JJ, Diane you are all lifted up in prayer as you continue to comfort Angela and care for her family.
Love to you All
Honie
David and Diane,
I hope today has brought you some peace and rest. You have both been on my mind, as well as your Mama. I am sure she is looking down and so approving of all that you are doing for Angela. We all know that this is one of those things that can not be explained. I know that heaven is so much better than earth, and I am glad that Angela will soon leave her body here.. along with the hurt, and be a renewed person with God. WITH GOD! How awesome is that? She will know only what we all dream and think about. SHE WILL KNOW IT FIRSTHAND! I am sure the angels in heaven will greet her with open arms, all wanting to hug her first! :)
Know that you two are both on my hearts... along with Steele and John Michael. Thank you for all that you have done. I only wish I was there to help out. I know there are others that I do not know, and I thank you too.
Love,
Jayne

Good Sunday afternoon to all of you who are keeping watch over Angela in her final days in this wretched place. She will be in the Presence of Him...Jesus our Lord and we will all celebrate for her because she will have the awesome experience of seeing His face. I can only imagine.... Just like the song says:
"I can only imagine what it will be like, when I walk by Your side...
I can only imagine, what my eyes will see, when Your Face is before me!
I can only imagine. I can only imagine.
Surrounded by Your Glory, what will my heart feel?
Will I dance for you, Jesus? Or in awe of You, be still?
Will I stand in Your presence, or to my knees will I fall?
Will I sing 'Hallelujah!'? Will I be able to speak at all?
I can only imagine! I can only imagine!
I can only imagine, when that day comes, when I find myself standing in the Son!
I can only imagine, when all I will do, is forever, forever worship You!
I can only imagine! I can only imagine!
Surrounded by Your Glory, what will my heart feel?
Will I dance for you, Jesus? Or in awe of You, be still?
Will I stand in Your presence, or to my knees will I fall?
Will I sing 'Hallelujah!'? Will I be able to speak at all?
I can only imagine! Yeah! I can only imagine!
Surrounded by Your Glory, what will my heart feel?
Angela Carville Fluker will not have to imagine what it will be like. She will know and the rest of us can only imagine. Praise to the God who adores us enough to take us into his presence and let us be with him. No more pain, no more crying, no more illness, no more of any of the earthly things that trip us up. She is going to perfected in a new body and with Jesus. WOW! How wonderful that will be!!!!!! God Bless you and keep you. May his face shine upon you and give you peace. Stay strong! God will be with you through it all.
In Christ
Pam

Good Evening David, Angela and friends,
Thinking and praying for you every minute of the day. David, I hope you have another night, laying next to your precious wife! Please whisper to Angela that all of her "blogger" friends are still here and we love her!!!
God Bless all of you,
Love, peace and HOPE,
Lowry
Good Morning Troops!
I think Angela’s group could rival Obama’s today! I know in TN we are keeping the prayers going.
I hope today is restful for you David. Give Angela a little kiss on the cheek for Jacques. He still keeps her in his daily prayers and I told him I would ask you for him.
John Michael, thanks for keeping us in the loop. It certainly means a lot to all of us.
love,
Jayne
