Praying For (Great) Grandpa Mulder

Almost 2 1/2 years ago Grandpa Mulder was diagnosed with Stage 4 Colon Cancer, it was one of the saddest days for the Mulder Family. Although everyone was sad, Grandpa & Grandma looked for the positive side of things and pursued any medical treatment and options that they had. Over the last 2 1/2 years we have spent some of the greatest moments with Grandpa & Grandma but unfortunately in the past week Grandpa Mulder has taken a turn for the worse. Since Westyn has been home we have tried to have Grandpa spend as much time with his Great-Grandson as possible...it was been so much fun to see the spark in his eyes when Westyn comes around him...they both love him so much!!!

Please pray for Grandpa (Ben) & Grandma (Grace)...please ask God to provide comfort and peace to everyone. Please pray for God to wrap his loving arms around Grandpa and give him peace. We do not know what is going to happen but we know without a shadow of a doubt God already has this written in his book for Grandpa, we just need to trust in everything that God gives us.

Here are some precious pictures of Grandpa, Grandma, Westyn & Cousin Aubrey over the last two days...


Westyn & Great-Grandpa at breakfast yesterday morning...


Westyn, Aubrey & Great-Grandpa...holding his two Great-Grandchildren...how perfect a little girl & little boy!!!


Westyn & I briefly went to see Grandpa & Grandma today in between other visitors...they are completely smitten by him.


The most precious kiss ever!!! Grandpa was elated that Westyn was awake to give him a kiss...

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5-6
