"TRUMP AND SON FULFILL A DYING WISH" - Connor Veenstra | Mar 06, 2019; https://townhall.com/tipsheet/connorveenstra/2019/03/06/trump--son-fulfill-a-dying-wish-n2542679 [AS I SEE IT: As much as the mainstream media focuses on anything that embarasses or otherwise is an attack on President Trump, they can be equally counted on to ignore stories such as the following. I've long believed there is a side to our President that few Americans know about and appreciate. To demonstrate that, I feel the need to present this story. May it help YOU to better understand the person who leads our nation. P.S.- People who have met with President Trump privately have often talked about his warmth and kindness. If only more people could know that side of him. - Stan]

President Trump and his son Eric Trump helped fulfill a terminally ill man's dying wish with a phone call on Tuesday evening. And it all came to pass because of his Democrat sister.
Connecticut native Jay Barrett has been struggling with cystic fibrosis and undergoing palliative care at his sister's home. With doctors giving him six months to live, Barrett asked his sister, West Haven City Councilwoman Bridgette Hoskie, for a favor: contact with the president before he dies.
While Hoskie describes herself as "100 percent Democrat," she took to social media, asking friends on Facebook to "help in making something on my brother's bucket list a reality." Her friends and other supporters sent emails to the White House and its online petition system to get the president to call Jay. The efforts were rewarded on Tuesday night. Barrett received a call from President Trump.
"Alright Jay, you look handsome to me," the president began. "I just saw a picture of you."
"Oh, you're giving me kind honors," Barratt replied. "I look like sh*t."
Trump laughed. "How are you doing? How is it going, Jay? ... You're a champ, you know that? You're fighting it, right?"
"That's what the Irish do, right?" Barrett answered.
"Yeah, that's what the Irish do, you better believe it," Trump said.
Barrett let the president know that he supported him through thick and thin, despite how many thicks and thins there have been.
"You're my kind of man, Jay," said Trump. "I'm very proud of you. I'll talk to you again, Jay, OK? You keep that fight going. We both fight."
Barrett says that he also received a call from Eric Trump and Lynne Patton, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development regional chief.
"[Eric Trump] told me they're pulling for me and praying," Barrett told the New Haven Register.
Patton said that she's coming to Connecticut on Saturday to give Barrett a signed gift from the president.

PRAYER MATTERS:
"To clasp the hands in prayer is the beginning of an uprising against the disorder of the world."
- Karl Barth; "Prayer is inviting God into a seemingly impossible situation and trusting/resting in His love and grace to accomplish His perfect will in His perfect time and for His greatest glory. Intercession is the one of the great privileges AND responsibilities for EVERY believer." - Stan
