PRAYERS NEEDED! My dad, 79 year old Byron Claiborne, has hit his head HARD on a stonework countertop in his kitchen. There is some indication that there could have been an assault by one of his tennants there at his multi plex ranch style home. Regardless of how this came to be, right now he is on a ventilator/respirator, unconcsious, non responsive, in critical condition and according to my siblings may not have much longer to live, barring a miracle. God is bigger than all of this! And he is THE great physician. Please pray that God would have mercy in this scenario and would reach down and touch my father. Sherri and I are praying from here and awaiting more updates and info as they come in. Thank you, everyone MARK

Mark Claiborne Thank you for this, Christy. I truly am torn between staying wise and avoiding the germs of an airplane and wanting to see my dad whie he is alive even though he would not likely know that I am there.

Denise Borchert I know it's not the same as being there, but maybe you can set up a Skype session on the computer and talk with him face to face that way... I'm sure somebody could get him connected to you with a laptop computer smile emoticon

Mark Claiborne Thank you everyone for the prayers and please keep them going. God CAN do a work here, but the Doctors are saying that his extensive bleeding throughout his brain will likely leave him brain dead within the next 24 hours. I am trying to decide if I should risk the germs of an airplane ride, with an important major surgery of my own coming right up on Tuesday. I need God's wisdom, too.

Mark Claiborne Well, the Doc's are keeping dad on a ventilator until I and my siblings all see him. Then they will take him off of it and he will likely not live much past that, if he is even alive now. Thank you all for your prayers. I am on my way to fly down there. After this trip I head/fly straight to Virginia Mason for my big surgery.

Mark Claiborne Dad passed away yesterday at 12:09PM. I am on an airplane headed home to try and rest up for my surgery on Tuesday. I appreciate the prayers of all of you! It will be so hard to not have him checking on me at the hospital. I found out today that he had intended to travel up to Seattle this Tuesday to be with me as I go into my most major and invasive surgery ever. This ain't gonna be a good week.

Mark Claiborne By the way, the B in my name, my middle name, is for Byron my father and I have included it in my signature with pride since I first learned to sign my name to any paper or document.


This keeps getting better.

Dad allegedly dies a violent death at 79, before typical life insurance policies expire at age 80.

An "accidental" death at the age of 79 would maximize insurance payments. I wonder if there's anything in the OP's past to indicate he would know that?



"his multi plex ranch style home"

This is the bit that I really like...and the God solicitations, we cannot forget those.

I genuinely expected a paypal link at the bottom.

These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.
