My boyfriends dad won't wake up...?

Question

My has been out of town taking care of his dying father... He could go at any time now... and he just informed me that he will not wake up... breathing but not able to wake up.... what do I say to him... :(

Answer 1

Just tell him to be strong for his family and that you are with him in spirit.  

What a terrible thing he is going through.

Answer 2

Express your sorrow for him and what he is having to go through. Let him know that you are there for him when he needs you.

Answer 3

Say nothing. Just listen and be there.

Answer 4

You are a deep and understanding individual. Pray for a 'healing' for your boyfriend's dad. Sometimes, it requires just the asking and the Lord will respond to your request. Be a 'caring ear' and offer comfort without much conversation. No one who is in grief wants to hear a whole lot of talking. What shall we then say to these things? If GOD be for us, WHO can be against us? - Romans 8:31  The Lord daily loadeth us with BENEFITS, even the GOD of our salvation. Selah  - Psalm 68:19  Peace!!!

Answer 5

My mother passed that way a couple years ago.  There isn't much you can say.  When he does finally pass on he will be grateful to have been there with him.  He will witness the end of any and all suffering his father may have experienced.  And he will be able to accept it better.  It won't be any easier nothing makes it easy but what he does and will need is your support.  Help him to cry when he needs to.  let him remember the good.   Give him all the time he needs to heal although having been with him at passing he will heal a lot better than most are able to that don't have that moment. Don't pressure him to hurry home.  If his father is in a comma now it probably won't be much longer.  My mothers doctors and such had it figured to within a week.  

Answer 6

just say that i'll help get through this.
