Prayers for my brother-in-law

We got a phone call this evening that made my husband cry...and I can count on one hand the number of times I've seen that.  My brother-in-law is in intensive care with congestive heart failure (and probably pneumonia).  The dialysis that he is receiving is helping, but as a diabetic things just aren't good.  He has also lost what little was left of his vision.  Because my in-laws waited three days to call us, things are actually better this evening than they were on Thursday, so they don't feel there is a need for my husband to get over there.  We've also been told that my brother-in-law's dog is not well and probably won't be around when Tim returns home.  That dog has been the number one reason my brother-in-law looks forward to each trip home from the hospital, and it's making things even more emotional.  I do believe that Tim will get through this bout, but I also know that our family has seen this before.  I am sending up many prayers for Tim, and especially for my in-laws.  No parent should ever have to watch their child suffer like this.
