Your father will be in my prayers. Yes, you need to forgive, for that is the only way your heart will heal. And sweetie, you need a heart that's all in one piece to get you through. If you don't feel it, doesn't really matter at first. Tell God you're forgiving them out of obedience to HIM. And ask Him to help you mean it. God knows your heart sis. He knows what happened in that emergency room. He was there too, remember? Talk to Him about it. Lean on Him. Ask HIM what you should do. And remember this: Romans 12:17-21 17 Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men. 18 If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men. 19 Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, "Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,'' says the Lord. 20 "Therefore if your enemy hungers, feed him; if he thirsts, give him a drink; for in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head.'' 21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. Do not let the hatred take root in your heart. It's so easy to want revenge when one of our loved ones are hurt. Treat it as an attack by the enemy and stand your ground to be firm in your resolve to allow God to handle the situation and to make things right again. He is our shield and our strength. He is our GOD. I'll be in prayer for you sis. Please keep us posted concerning your dad's health. I am sooooo sorry sis. trav :hug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the only thing you can do to maybe stop it from happening again. However, I really doubt that it will help the hatred that builds up within yourself. For that Trinity has some really good advice. For the sake of others though, don't just let it go. Persue legal action to force the Hospital to change it's process of care for the sake of others in the future. Sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im in the medical profession. Besides contacting an attorney, get all the information, and the names of everyone, and submit complaints to the state boards regulating them. The boards will (hopefully) care more about the public than in protecting one of their own. If a serious breach of medical practice occurred, then having them dealt with so that they cannot hurt another person is actually a good way to go. Their malpractice insurance will cover them, the doctors will hardly even notice the lawsuit, quite honestly. They cant ignore action from the state board. That will get them to recognize the harm they have caused your family, and to think twice before acting so again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do know that when he went to Lansing to a different hospital the records sent there that they requested from Grand Rapids said that he took an overdose of vallium (sp?) we were floored and have no idea where that came from...so who knows what they actually wrote in the paper work. You are all so right...I am working on my anger...and actually feel a little better this morning. I am trying. I just want my dad back to normal...but I have to be happy that he still knows us all and loves us just the same as he did before. I can and will live with the differences in his actions and personality. But everytime he cries it rips me apart. But I will learn to deal with that too. I will keep everyone updated on what is going on. I thank you all for your advice and prayers...they helped more than I can say. Love and Blessings, Angel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Psalm27 Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 I would be very angry too..... Even Jesus got angry and overturned tables before.... I thought it was ok to feel anger but not to sin. Anger is a natural response when something wrong is done to us. Forgiveness will come in time. :hug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. I think the heart matter of forgiveness can be separate from pursuing a legal issue to stop an injustice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kittyjo Posted September 5, 2004 Group: Diamond Member Followers: 0 Topic Count: 53 Topics Per Day: 0.01 Content Count: 523 Content Per Day: 0.07 Reputation: 1 Days Won: 0 Joined: 05/11/2004 Status: Offline Share Posted September 5, 2004 Righteous indignation often fuels the fires of justice... I's okay to be angry for the right reasons. Yes we are called to love... God is love; God is truth; God is justice... So, in turn we love truth and justice, when these things are voilated we feel angered, we feel a need to right the wrong... This is a good thing, it is not about revenge or malace it is about justice, accountability and responsibility... By reporting, this incident to the state board; taking it to court; taking it to the media [something else I'd do] you may help to save someone else... So, isn't that an act of love as well. Don't be so hard on yourself. It's okay to be angry, but keep it in check. Make sure you are angry for the right reasons and don't let the anger turn to bitterness, hate or cause you to sin. Forgiveness will come. Here is an article that might help, it covers Eph. 4:26 Click Here for Article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
