Ask him if he has made his peace with the Lord...and tell him that you see angels too, watching over him...tell him not to worry about the angels, that they are there to keep him safe...I know how you feel,...death is so final, and no one wants to lose someone they love so much...but if he is in the process of dying, you mustn't let on, and tell him the angels are there to watch over him and keep him safe...tell him to get some rest, and let them do their job...he has to sleep, so comfort him, and assure him he is fine,...and if he should pass, let him go to his maker in peace, not scared half to death... Pray and God Bless

It is possible that your grandfather can be seeing angels, because before my Grandma passed she said alot about hearing relatives in her house calling her when they was not and about seeing dead relatives and the relatives in her house walking to other sections of the house when no one was walking. She was seeing things and I think that our deceased relatives were the angels visiting my Grandma. Shortly after these activities she passed. I miss her so much but I would rather know she is happy then to see her suffering that would be selfish. I believe when death is approaching for a person the more that person will be able to see things on the spiritual side. I love my Grandma but what I try to do is think of her gone on a long vacation to stay and that someday when I have fulfilled my mission I will go stay with her. But my uncle's wife grandfather had lung cancer and he would lay in the hospital bed staring up at the ceiling I believe he was seeing angels that were there to comfort him and take him home, but he did not want to die, when he decieded to give up he went peacefully and when he died he was staring at the ceiling. Just love, comfort and continue to show your appreciation for him being your grandfather.

As people age they get a condition called Dementia they start to see and hear things that aren't there. Patience and comfort are really your only options at this time. If he is suffering from cancer at his age. He will die due to complications before the cancer kills him. He could also be hallucinating due to pain medication he may be taking Enjoy him as much as possible until his time comes. In the meantime you may want to go to one of his doctors appointments with him so that you can ask his doctor if there is anything you can do for him. Make a list of all the questions you have before you go. His doctor will be able to give you a better idea of what you and your grandfather are facing.

I have been in your position, except for my grandfather didn't see angels (that I know of). IT is very hard to go through losing a grandfather. I do feel that your grandfather is getting close. I believe that some people see angels when it is getting close to passing. They are there to comfort him and take him when God says it is time. I know it is hard to think about. Just think once he does go he won't be in any more pain and he won't go to heaven alone. The angels will be with him. Once in heaven he will be happy and able to breathe without pain and being doped up on meds. all the time. Just try to be positive about the angels being there. Know that your grandfather loves you. Lean on God he will get you through this difficult time. Pray to him and talk with him as much as possible about your problems. He will get you through. I'm not saying it won't be tough but you will get through. You are in my prayers and thoughts.

My grandfather is the same way except for the angels. Also if he is seeing angels he could have something wrong or he really is. When my cousin was 4 she started talking about this angel named Rachel and how Rachel has been telling her about her past life and it could be true! She strongly believes it. If he sees angels in his bedroom he should know they will not hurt him. Angels will watch over you. If it makes him feel better tell him to pray every night.( You 2!) Good luck!

let me just say that my uncle just died of colon cancer and i know it is hard to deal with such a tragedy. i know you don't want your grandfather to die just like i didn't want my uncle to die. but there are worse things than seeing angels. You know that when he is gone he will be in heaven where he can watch over and protect you. just relax and pray for strength bc god will help you through anything.

This is very hard i know, but your grandad may be ready to pass on..Lung cancer is a very hard thing to beat..Maybe you should try to prepare yourself that he is going to pass on,he will always be with you in heart and soul,and please see someone and talk to them,i feel for you,and wish i was there just to give you a hug

Hey.. Sorry to say this but,i think his path is getting shorter and shorter....Make him feel like he isn't really alone... Remember that if something happens to him He'll be in a better place.... And that he won't be suffering anymore...Or Maybe he's regretting something... Remember that nobody can last forever....

Remember their are only two kinds of angels. Both created by the God Almighty (JEHOVAH). Fallen angels (demons), which are now referred to as Satan's angels (2nd Corinthians 11:14 "And no wonder, for Satan himself keeps transforming himself into an angel of light". 2nd Corinthians 12:7 just because of the excess of the revelations. Therefore, that I might not feel overly exalted, there was given me a thorn in the flesh, an angel of Satan, to keep slapping me, that I might not be overly exalted). Then you have the angels that do God's will (Daniel 7:9-10 "I kept on beholding until there were thrones placed and Ancient of Days sat down. His Clothing was white just like snow, and the hair of his head was like clean wool. His throne was flames of fire; its wheels were a burning fire. There was a stream of fire flowing and going out from bere him. there were a thousand thousands that kept ministering to him, and ten thousand times ten thousand that kept standing right before him. The Court took its seat, and there were books that were opened). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SO THE NEXT TIME PAPAW SEES THESE SO CALLED ANGELS TELL HIM TO SAY OUTLOUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "The name of JEHOVAH is a strong tower. Into it the righteous runs and is given protection". (Revelation 1:8 "I am the Al'pha and the Ome'ga," says Jehovah God, "the One who is and who was and who is coming, the Almighty.")...................................................... AND AS FOR YOU THE FEAR OF LOSING YOUR GRANDFATHER WON'T EVEN HOLD A MATCH TO THE PAIN THAT WILL FALL UPON YOU WHEN HE DOES DIE. I KNOW FROM MY OWN PERSONAL EXPERIENCE OF LOSING MY GRAMMA TO CANCER WHEN SHE AT THE AGE OF 76. BUT I GOT OVER SOONER THAN I THOUGHT I WOULD. REMEMBER - - -2ND CORINTHIANS 4:10-12 "Always we endure everywhere in our body the death-dealing treatment given to Jesus, that the life of Jesus may also be made manifest in our body. For we who live are ever being brought face to face with death for Jesus' sake, that the life of Jesus may also be made manifest in our mortal flesh. Consequently death is at work in us, but life in you." ---------------------------------------------------------1st CORINTHIANS 15:21-22 "For since death is through a man, resurrection of the dead is also through a man. For just as in Adam all are dying, so also in the Christ all will be made alive."
