A Turn For the Worse

As you may recall, we recently had a student pass away from cancer.
I wrote about how seeing the father just broke my heart, because he didn't have strength.
I just found out that the father also has cancer.
He was given 6 months to live around the time his daughter heard the same news about her.
He was going to donate organs to his daughter, and during routine checkups, they found cancer in his liver.
He didn't go through with the treatment, because he wanted to concentrate on his daughter improving.

When i heard the news, i was just stunned.
how much more can this family endure?

What is it that we, as pastors, can do in situations such as these?
