Please help! Dad wont eat after colorectal surgery

Dad had colorectal surgery at the age of 80 four weeks ago. The operation went well, but Dad seems to have lost the will to live now, hes refusing to eat and will not participate in his physio sessions. We cannot attempt to bring him home unless he can at least be strong enough to transfer. He hasnt been able to walk for the last two years though he could stand for a few seconds to be able to transfer safely from seat to seat. Please say a special prayer for him and ask the Lord to give him strength spiritualy, emotionaly and physically so that my Mam and all his loving family can once again have him home with us. He has always made the most of life even when he couldnt walk but is struggling now and needs all your help and prayers. Amen

My heart is now breaking and i dont know if i can carry on being a help to my poor mother who is going through so much. Lord please hear my plea and grant us healing. Amen

Lord, lay you healing hands upon alison123's father. He has successfully gone through surgery, but something in his mind is telling him to give up. Giving up is not an option Lord, please provide the will he needs to continue on, and comfort his family.
Lift their spirits so they can continue to encourage him on his road to recovery and to go home. In Jesus name we pray.
