Darcy Kent goes on to be with the Lord

We received this from Dr. Kent today:
===========================
At 4:30 p.m. MST October 28, 2005, the doctors pronounced Darcy Kent as brain dead. It is my opinion that Darcy was with Jesus five days earlier. Rather than sustaining life, the life support systems only prolonged her death. My son Stephan and his two children, Tyler (21) and Sammy (17) have serious choices to make in the coming days. So do I, his three sisters and Darcy’s two sisters and brother. We have found the Grace of God sufficient and His peace made perfect. My prayer is that the presence and peace of God will be so manifested in their lives, that they will be amazed at the calm in the midst of such upheaval. Thank you for your continued prayer support. Your many emails have been a tremendous encouragement to us – particularly me. How comforting it is for us to know that you are interceding on our behalf. Thank you. Love you! - Wilf

Urgent Prayer Request from Dr. Kent

I received this urgent prayer request from Dr. Kent this morning. Let's pray for his family and believe for a full recovery!
===========================
Last evening my daughter-in-law, Darcy Kent (39), my son Stephan’s wife suffered a severe cardiac arrest. She was without a pulse for 15 minutes. She is on life support and the Dr. said that she sustained brain damage. I have never see anyone as devastated as is my son. He lost his mother 18 months ago and now his wife’s life is threatened. He is destitute. I would carry his burden barefooted for him, but this is one load he must. God is able to bring healing to anyone He chooses. We pray that this trial will becomes a powerful testimony and that God will restore her physical and mental capacities. We are prisoners of faith and hope. In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me – Psalms 86:7 You have been immense source of strength and encouragement to me during my wife’s illness and home going. I come to you for strength once again. - Wilf
