Do any of you have prayer requests??

[rizzy]

I was just thinking we could try having a "prayer request" thread. This way pt members can be praying for the loved ones of other pt members. I often times miss prayer requests. If any of you have prayer requests please share; this way we can have more power through prayer.

***Should this be in the Dog House?***

[catnapper]

What a great thread idea!

Not that he's sick at all, but my hubby sure needs all the prayers available that he gets a new teaching job for next school year. He's an awesome teacher and should be in a better (and safer) school district making the money he deserves. And a better health plan so that we can get his weight down.

Yes, for my mom. She was diagnosed with breast cancer recently. But it was in the early stages. Now, she has to have Kemo and has already had to. Last Saturday, she had a brain scan. They found something but they highly doubt its a brian tumor. I'm really worried.

[Jessika]

I do, as a matter of fact. I was JUST going to make a thread about my situation actually.. and then I came to PT and saw this thread. Maybe this is a sign?

Anyway my situation in lamen's terms -- I need a loan because I need to get a car. HJ is leaving this weekend and obviously needs to take the car with him for his job. He's moving four hours away. I'm staying behind to keep my job for a few extra months to make some income while he's looking for an apartment and getting settled on his feet.

Only problem is, my mother, sister and I all have jobs, but only one vehicle to share between us. We all work at the same hours, too.

I need a car, if only just to get to and from work every day.

I applied for a loan through a bank but they denied me because I don't have any credit. I can get one with a co-signer, but nobody I knows has good enough credit, or is willing to take a chance with me.

A lady from the dealership called me today because I emailed her earlier this week before I knew my loan status of interest in one of their cars and I hadn't replied to any of her emails. She told me the car was still available to look at. I told her sorry, my loan fell through. She then said I could try for financing through the dealership, and so she emailed me an application. I filled it out and figured, "what the hey, what have I got to lose? I've already been shot down once".

So please, please, pray for me and keep me in your thoughts that this loan goes through. If not then.. ugh. I don't know what will happen, but the next few months will be very difficult not just for me but for my mother and sister as well. :(

[Alysser]

Prayers for everyone! :D

[rizzy]

I will pray for all of your prayer requests. Please remember that Matthew 19: 26 And looking upon [them] Jesus said to them, "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."
All things are possible with God, and because He is perfect, He cannot make mistakes. Again, I will be praying hard for all your requests.

Thank you, so much. I really appreciate it. I know my situation isn't as dire as others' may be but God provides no matter what (but usually at the very last minute in our case hehe but I guess with God it is always on time!).

...but I guess with God it is always on time!).

Exactly:D

[Cookiebaker]

What a great thread!!! :)

[Uabassoon]

Well this is sort of more along the lines of good luck/well wishes but I'll post anyways.

I've been in line to get a promotion to be a supervisor for a while, but the problem is that no one has left so there hasn't been any room for me to move up. On Monday two people are being interviewed to move up in the company to be assistant managers (meaning that if they get promoted they will be transfered). So if one of them gets a position then I get to move up into one of their spots. My manager (who has no say in if they get promoted) says she is sure at least one of them will move up, so she's starting to train me to be ready. However my mom always said don't count your chickens before their hatched. So hopefully everything will work out and I can finally get my promotion because I really could use the extra money.

For everyone who has posted you will all be in my thoughts.

[rizzy]

I'll be praying for you Sammy101 and you as well Uabassoon, you can pray about anything;):D Good luck and I'll keep you all in my prayers.

[buckner]

I don't like to seem selfish, so I have a tough time asking for people to pray for me, but....

If you all could continue the prayers for my family and I as we deal with the loss and grief of the brutal murder of my grandmother, I'd truly appreciate it. We're slowly finding comfort in the situation. We're also going through some other problems that deal with this incident that are being opened up, and I'm grateful that they're finally coming to a surface, but just pray that all of answers to our questions are revealed. I know that doesn't make sense, and I'm sorry. But please, if you could just keep us in your prayers, I could never thank you enough.



And everyone who has posted (and those who will later on post) will be in my prayers. Not a single person will go overlooked, and I don't care if you think your request is silly. If it's bothering you, it's a burden that needs to be prayed about... keep on prayin'.

[Laura's Babies]

My son Eddie still needs all the prayers he can get. With each new day, another problem is discovered with his recovery from his burns. Now his heart is doing something strange and there is a problem in his shoulder.. Please keep Eddie on every prayer list you can get him on...

Also prayers for my CH kitty Amy who is getting worse. I don't expect miracles with prayers for her but a standstill in her condition would be nice..

Strength for me to handle whatever is ahead for both of them, my skin kid and my fur kid.

[CagneyDog]

Everyone that posted will be in my prayers. {{hugs}}

This is a great thread, by the way :)

[Pawsitive Thinking]

I want you all to know that I will keep up with this thread and you all will be in my prayers.

[JenBKR]

This is a great thread! I will pray for each and every one of your requests - and no one should feel in the least bit selfish. Just remember, God does things in His own time, as frustrating as that can be to us sometimes!

I might as well add my request. My sister is married to a horrible 'man' who verbally and emotionally abuses her. I have never really discussed that here before, but I feel comfortable enough with all of you to do so now. Please keep her in your prayers as well.

[rizzy]

I will keep you all in my prayers, may God be with you all and the ones you love, and/or need prayers. Please let me know if you need any encouraging bible verses. God Bless!

[rizzy]

I am bumping this as I see prayer request threads.

[Cubby'sMom]

This is a wonderful thread, prayers are on their way to everyone! Well, it's not a big problem I suppose, but at my school, a sort of friend of mine seems to enjoy making people suffer. She has runined relationships for couples, broken friendships, made several rumors that were not your regular rumors you hear at school. I really want her to get better with all of this, and for her to see the error of her ways.

[krazyaboutkatz]

This thread is a great idea. :) I'll add every one here to my prayers list. :)

[Christiansmommy]

What a great thread idea...we can also make sure to update our prayer requests as we need to...

I have to go through several Level 2 ultrasounds for my baby (i am 20 weeks pregnant). The doctors saw some areas of concern and so they want to keep an eye on baby. Prayers would be welcome that baby has a healthy heart and that his 2 vessel umbilical cord won't hinder him in any way. We are staying positive and I know it is b/c we are daily leaning on God to keep us from worrying. My next ultrasound is on Feb. 20th, so prayers that we hear positive results would be very welcome :) Thanks!!!! I will also keep everyone in my prayers.

Robyn and baby

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Robyn, Feb 20th is my birthday, so I just know positive results will be all you hear on that day. ;) :)

[poofy]

I also will pray for all to..yes a great thread to keep an eye on.. :)

[Cincy'sMom]

I'd like to ask for prayers for my friend's husband. He had a heart attack on Wednesday, and underwent a triple by-pass yesterday. He is doing well so far, but of course he is in a lot of pain. He is in his early 40's and skinny as rail...another warning sign for everyone to quit smoking!!!

[rizzy]

I will continue to pray for all of you. God Bless!

[lisalee]

Many prayers sent to all of you and your loved ones..............

[K9karen]

Just when I think I'm hitting rock bottom, I realize that other people have it so much worse. if it's not too selfish, prayers would help for my John to finally find a decent job. He spent the last 2 years, after his last job ended, helping me take care of my mother at home and then took loving care of me as I recovered from 2 surgeries. He's so giving to other people that he ignored his own needs.

My prayers are for all of you, always, especially my dear friend, Robyn and her family, Also healthy babies for other PTers and their families (who have not made it public knowledge) and of course for all of you and yours, who are ill or recovering- a life changing situation.

you're not selfish at all, every one of you have your own! glad to read all of this, all of you my friends are in my thoughts automatically. :) prayers continuing & hugs from us, all the special furriends!

[K9karen]

I owe all of you a bundle of thanks for any prayers that you mustered up. This is premature, but John sent out a resume on Friday and got a call today (the lady was out of town) and she seemed really interested in his ability. She said that she couldn't get his resume off her mind because he was so honest that for a year he took time off a regular job to care for my family and me. She was very impressed. She still has some other resumes to sort through, but said he's top on her list. The pay sucks compared to what he charges as a contractor, but we both don't even care, as it sure is better than no income. John's more interested in the job itself. This is the first time in months that I've seen him so self assured and somewhat positive. His whole personality changed today. He seemed a lot happier, especially since he can now help with household expenses.
I know you guys have your own lives etc and are busy, but if you could at least keep your fingers crossed that she wants to interview him and that it goes well, I'd be so appreciative. He's been so down in the dumps, feeling worthless and he certainly deserves better. He's my lifesaver.

[Catty1]

JenBKR - I will add prayers for your brother-in-law; he is also suffering horribly to behave like that, and no doubt grew up being treated the same way. How people can do that to a child!

I hope he gets help, and your sister also - or your sis leaves for a while and realizes she deserves better!

For my own prayers - my sister has had MS for twenty years. She is in end-stage. It would take a total miracle to cure her - but it is my fondest hope.
Pray for my mom too, as she has been a wonder with my sister, being her caregiver and visiting 5 days out of 7 after my sister went into long-term care two years ago.

One selfish thing - that I would not be tired all the time, and get some zing and joy back in life. I used to walk everywhere and be in better shape. Now I am just tired.

Thank you all!
(And thank God for my fur kids!)

Thank you for that - yes his parents have always been the same way towards him - one week they adore him and offer to do his laundry and do everything for him, the next they tell him that they want nothing to do with him. If not for the fact that he is doing this to my sister, I would feel very bad for him.

I am keeping everyone else in my prayers as well, hopefully they are working!

Prayers going out for all these requests, I hope each situation is resolved for everyone's best and highest good.

A prayer request from me- I know it's not life-threatening, but I've been working on this for two years and would appreciate prayers... I'm trying to finish my Master's degree -- my thesis needs to be finished in the next three weeks. I'm getting so stressed out, I can't think anymore. I also have another large paper due mid-March, and I'm working more hours to fill in for a missing supervisor at work. I'm feeling edgy/depressed/cranky right now.
Please pray that I will have stamina and focus. Thank you and God Bless you.

[Jessika]

I would like to thank everyone who had me in their thoughts and prayers. No I haven't received a loan for a car, BUT I've come to the realization that at this immediate point in time a car would be a bit too much for us now, and I'm OK with it (not upset as I was earlier, because I WANTED one too, you know?). We borrowed my in-laws car so I have a way to get to work. In a few months or so when we're a little more stable financially (we JUST got the apartment and had to pay $1300 for the deposit and rent), my dream car will be out there, I just know it. :)

Not only that, but He has been teaching me that patience pays off, and having patience has its rewards! A few incidents happened where I REALLY wanted something, but HJ convinced me that "do you REALLY need that now?" or "well, have some patience, when the time is right, it will work out!". Its always happened though! The apartment is a prime example of that. So I feel that if I wait, the car will happen at the right moment for us :)

Things are starting to fall into place so I really would like to thank each and every one of you. THANKS PT!!!!!

[zippy-kat]

This is a beautiful, beautiful thread. I will definitely keep all of you in my prayers.

Cyber-sibes, I completed my masters in December and know all too well the stress you are facing. Keep your chin up - a break is right around the corner! :)

As for my own prayer requests:
1) My sister - It's a bit of a long story but please pray for her emotional well being.

2) My job - Or rather, my job search. I'm currently employed with a GREAT company and thus feel some loyalty/guilt for leaving but at the same time, it's not what I went to school for and I currently don't make enough to support myself.

3) An unspoken - Just one I don't really care to discuss on the board. :)

Thanks, guys!

[Taffygirl62]

That's a great idea to have a prayer thread for those who are sick in your family or have died , whether they are human or animal family members. I have two uncles who are ill at the moment.

I'll think of some and post them later. Super idea. :)

[poofy]

Prayers said for all the request and are in my heart and on mymind all the time..God answers Prayer..

[rizzy]

I am praying for each of you, and asking that God will take upon your requests and do what is best for you. Please remember God does everything for a reason, I know sometimes it's hard to remember that when things aren't looking up. As for myself, please pray for my cousin. He is just having some problems and I am really worried. Thanks PT, for everything.

[shais_mom]

Please send PT prayers for Keegan

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Keegan has hurt her good (left) leg. I am not entirely sure what she did - I suppose its possible she tore that ACL also. She is putting little weight on it and the added weight on her bad (right) hip and healing ACL tear is a lot for that side to bear. I just dissolved into tears on the floor beside her. (3 hours of sleep since yesterday at 630pm will do that to you also) She just licked my tears away. She likes to go out and lay in the snow - I imagine the cold feels good. I am calling the vet tomorrow to see if they can get her in. She won't lay on any type of rug or bed so she is just laying on the floor. I took her to the park on Friday and that is when she originally hurt it. Then after resting yesterday she was doing pretty good - then just this evening she did something else - I don't know what - now she is limping badly. And of course she won't stay in one spot - she keeps following me around the house. :(
I just want my little girl back.

Thank you and my other one is rather silly compared to some of the other ones here but I have toally misplaced the envelope that has my W2 forms in it so I probably will have to have work print me another if possible. I always do stupid stuff like this. Praying that it appears before I ask for another copy.

THANKS!

[poofy]

Oh bless your heart and poor Keegan,I'm so sorry, Praying for you n Keegan..
hope you find the w2 also..

I always say a collective prayer every night for everyone on PT. I love you all like family. I'm happy when you are and devastated when sadness and dispair enter your life. I may not always comment because I just can't find the words.Anyway, I wanted you all to know that John didn't get the job he wanted and was 1st on their list to get. Apparently, they thought he'd be bored because of his experience and credentials. It wasn;'t even the low pay, he'd take anything right now. I think they may be afraid he'd "take over" their small IT department. But they said they'd call if they need him for contract work. He wants to stay in this area because of me, otherwise we'd move to the west coast or eastern pacific area where he lived and worked his whole life. All my friends and family are here and right now, I'm not in an emotional state of mind to move. Anyway, he's still job hunting..so we'll see what happens. Thanks again for all your prayers. It wasn't meant to be, poor guy.

My red gurl still needs prayers and healing vibes sent her way. I think she has reinjured the injury - there's no way I can get her in the vet today - am aiming for tomorrow - just going to try to keep her comfortable. My heart breaks for her.

[cyber-sibes]

Poor Keegan, not again! I will keep her in mind and prayer all day today. I hope you can get her into the vet soon. (((((hugs)))))
This is such a touching thread, and I think it's wonderful to know that so many are praying for each other's needs. Thank you all.

I made a thread but please pray for my good friend Heather. Something strange is going on with what the doctors think might be the brain. We are not sure, but please pray for her. Right now she is being transported to the hospital in the cities. I am really scared, please please pray for her. Thanks pet talk.

[Christiansmommy]

Today was the long awaited ultrasound. They spent a ton of time looking at his heart (which is where they thought they might have seen concern before). Anyway, the tech looked at the baby for a good 45 minutes, and then the doctor came in and gave us the results. The doctor’s opinion concerning his heart was, quote, “ If I was a betting man, I would bet there is nothing wrong with his heart”…he said he really didn’t think there was anything wrong with it…but since there was concern for it at the previous ultrasound (and b/c the doctors need to be thorough)…I will have a fetal echocardiogram in 4 more weeks…where it will be looked at in more detail…then I have 2 more level 2 ultrasounds scheduled up until my due date. His bowel and kidneys appeared echogenic at the last ultrasound, meaning they were brighter in color than they should have been. His bowel has since cleared up, but his kidneys were still echogenic…but he didn’t seem too concerned about it…they seem to be functioning properly, since my amniotic fluid levels are normal (and a lot of that consists of fetal urine output). His femur bone is still measuring a little small, but my OBGYN wasn’t concerned about it, since I am small, and the men in my family are on the short side. Anyway, overall it was a really good appt. We were just praying for something positive to lean on, and hearing that they think his heart is fine, is so reassuring, and an answer to prayer. All of these “soft” markers, including the 2 vessel cord can happen to a downs syndrome baby, when all added up together, but normal babies can have these issues too. My genetic counselor had told me that a normal pregnancy has a 1% chance of downs, and ours is like 5% w/o a heart issue. With a heart issue (depending on how severe can mean anywhere from 10%-50% chance of downs) in combination with the other soft marker/issues he might have. Anyway, he measured the right weight at 1 lb. 1 oz. and was wiggling all over the place.

Thank you all so much for your prayers. I feel the Lord has given us some positive news to hang on to, and I was also praying that the doctors didn’t give us any unnecessary worry if there wasn’t real concern for it…and I think the doctor was very reassuring. Thanks so much, and please keep those prayers coming as I will be having more ultrasounds. Make sure to praise God in your prayer time for a good report, since his bowel looked normal and his heart appears normal at this point, as well as his kidneys, even though they are still echogenic, the fluid levels were normal to show they were functioning. Thanks again…I couldn’t have gotten through the month w/o your prayers and concern for us!! I will keep you posted as I know more!! God is good and hears our prayers!! I hope this note finds you all well!

My red gurl still needs prayers and healing vibes sent her way. I think she has reinjured the injury - there's no way I can get her in the vet today - am aiming for tomorrow - just going to try to keep her comfortable. My heart breaks for her.


Keeg has a vet appt at 1015 in the morning.

[rizzy]

I am continuing to pray for each of your requests. May we lift up our prayers to God and let Him do what's best.

[jazzcat]

I would like to ask for PT prayers for my husband and his family. His grandmother passed away this afternoon.

[shais_mom]

Keeg has a vet appt at 1015 in the morning.

Keegan's appt went smoothly. She did well with the accupuncture and the chiropractic and the pain shots. We discussed prognosis and it should be positive as long as she stops reinjuring it. She's grounded as to being on leash again. Keeping my fingers crossed.

[cyber-sibes]

please keep my husband JoJoe in your prayers. He called me from work saying he didn't feel well, then the secretary called 1/2 hr. later and said they had called 911 and he was on his way to the Emergency Room. They thought he'd had a heart attack, but after tests, say no. He goes to the Doctor tomorrow to see if they can figure out what happened. I got pretty scared, I don't know what I'd do without him! :( (He's at the age my Dad was when he died of a heart attack, so i guess that's in the back of my mind, too)
Thanks for your prayers.

[Kfamr]

Please everyone think of Glacier & Delta... and for Delta's safe return! :( :(

[jesse_3]

I'll be keeping everyone in my prayers...I do have to ask you all to keep my cousin Cindy in your prayers. She had breast cancer, and the doctors thought that they had disposed of it, but they might have now found a couple of spots that *might* be tumors. We are hoping that they are just fluid sacks that have not been drained, but we are not sure...So please, please, keep her in your prayers.

Another person you could please keep in your prayers is my old neighbor, Ben, who has an adorable Yorkie named Tootsie. He has prostate cancer, and it is fatal. Please pray that he will not be in too much pain, and that he can remain here as happy and heathy as possible until God brings him to Heaven...

Rachel, this thread is an awesome idea, and you never told me about Heather..Please tell me more when I call you later on...

Thanks guys.. it looks like everything's okay for the time being. I don't want to get into it but I didn't do anything wrong. My dad was being his typical, drunken self. At first he was set on kicking me out (I was supposed to move out tomorrow actually). Then my mom stepped in.. and now it looks like she's going to buy his half of the house and kick him out (they're legally divorced. The only thing keeping them together is that they both own the house). If for some reason that doesn't happen, or he continues to hassle me, I'm going to move to my grandma's.

Please keep my brother in your thoughts and prayers. I haven't mentioned it before but he has not been able to keep food down for almost 3 months now. He has lost 70 pounds -- which he needed to -- but starvation is not the way to do it. He has been in the Emergency Room so many times getting bags of fluid to keep him alive. FINALLY (4th doctor) found that he has a hernia in his stomach and a gall bladder about to explode with stones and a fistule (I've looked it up on the internet and it has a couple of definitions.) But what has happened in him is that his stomach and attached itself to another organ. The poor guy is so miserable. Today he started vomiting blood. He has vomited so much that he's got broken blood vessels in his throat. He is going to the hospital again in the morning and if all goes well, he will have surgery tomorrow. He is Dadcat to Miss Cinnabuns and Grey Boy. Please cross your fingers and paws that he will soon be back happy and healthy. Thank you.

Update from today's ultrasound...(I had posted about the last ultrasound a month ago, where there were some concerns)...

The baby's heart is fine!!!! Thanks so much for all of the prayers...praise God from whom all blessings flow!! They couldn’t find anything wrong with his heart…he is measuring right on for his gestational age too (I am 26 ½ weeks). He is measuring 2 lbs. 1 oz. The only thing that remains the same is his kidneys are still appearing bright on ultrasound scan…they are the right size, shape, in the right place and they are functioning normally ( b/c my amniotic fluid is normal), but they are bright. The doc said that there could be nothing wrong with them, or something could show up later on in his life, but to be on the safe side, they are referring us to a pediatric nephrologist (sp?)…he will sit down with us, before I deliver and discuss what tests he will want my pediatrician to run on him after he is born…apparently the kidneys should be functioning on their own normally after 48hrs. of being born, so they will probably monitor them in the hospital after delivery. It may be nothing, other than a little bright on scan, but they don’t want anything overlooked. I will still go back for more ultrasounds to check on his size, since he has a 2 vessel cord, and since I have gestational diabetes (these babies can tend to be big). So I have many more doctor appts. ahead of me, but at least they are checking everything out. I asked the doctor about the down syndrome risk now, since his heart is normal, and I had mentioned I was told that if his heart was normal, they thought maybe a 2-5% chance of downs and the doctor said he didn’t even think it was that high at this point, since there are no other markers, just the kidneys, basically….thank God for that as well!! So your prayers were heard…thanks so much!!

I am getting lots of Braxton Hicks Contractions, so I am hoping/praying they slow down…I had them with Christian too. Anyway, I appreciate all of your prayers !! Thanks again!!

Robyn (and Jeremey Lee)

PS. I could just request some prayer that my Braxton Hick's contractions slow down now...thanks!

Iti s strange that she was the last one to post on this thread, now I'm here, asking for prayers for her.

Karen's wrist was broken badly yesterday and required surgery. She is in the hospital and will perhaps be home by Friday if all goes well. John says that she was in the backyard playing with Logan and a puppy they have been watching and the neighbor's dogs came full speed at the puppy. In trying to protect the puppy, from the large dogs, her wrist was broken. " She fell on top of the puppy to protect it and in the process got her wrist broken to the point she was afraid to pull her hand out of the dogs mouth for fear of losing it entirely." This information came from her friend, John. She is apparently looking at a 4 month recovery period and physical therapy.

Rachel, Pam or I can keep you posted as we hear more.

Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers. She's had a rough time of it in the last year or so.

Well, it looks like my parents are getting a divorce soon. While I am relieved that my mom, brother, and I will not have to put up with my dad's abuse any longer, I am very worried about the financial part. Mom says she'll find a way to make it but we won't have health insurance (well I will since I am a minor) anymore because my dad's job covers that. Our medications each month, just the copayments, are upwards of $800.

Please everyone keep us in your prayers. I am not one to ask for things much but this is really scary for us.

I'm asking for prayers for my niece Nicholle- she has had such major issues in her life- very long story but has been almost on her own as a run away since age 15. She is now 18 but is still not all together. The family and my brother have never been the same since all of this has happened. My brother bless his soul has tried the best he can.
Also if you can include my Aunt Dee Dee she has been on a respirator twice in the past two years and with the power of prayer and faith she has recovered both times. Just asking that she stays well.

Now my selfish prayer request. I have tried for 10 years to have a baby and I hit 40 and have been looking into adoption also. It breaks my heart all the time knowing it just has not and never will happen. Funny nothing medically wrong. Diffrent treatments didnt work. Guess God has a plan for me. I still pray for that miracle.

Funny I always took prayer request that I had people write on rocks up to a place called Our Lady of the Island and I would go up the 33 stairs and place them at the foot of a cross they have their and you know every request I put their was always granted. Yet I didnt do it for myself for children. Just always felt it was selfish in a way. Sometimes I feel guilty asking for this type of prayer when I see others heart aches. I saw a minsister the other night say all you have to do is belive. Somewhere inside me says yep it could happen. Hey you never know if you hear one day a 70 year old lady has a baby maybe it will be me.
Prayers sent out to all of you and you will all be prayed for.

My Uncle Ed woke up with chest pains this morning and he is diabetic and has heart problems. :( He went to go to a hospital in another town and my parents went, too. They are most likely staying the night and I said I would stay home with the furbabies. My parents will keep me updated.

My cousins Courtney and Patricia got taken away from their parents since their parents supposedly do drugs. Courtney is around 11-13 years old and Patricia is around 7-9 years old. The reason I don't know thier age is because, in 2003 my grandmother passed away from cancer and Courtney and Patricia's mom turned her back on us and I haven't seen them for 3 years in November. :( I miss them and hope to see them again someday. Their older sister, Heather is going to try to get custody of them. She is 22, which is good and I hope she can get custody of them. Right now, I hope they are together, they need each other now more than ever. I hope they don't seperate them if they have to go into a foster home/group home. I forgot to add I think they were abused physically and emotionally. :(

so please pray for them and I will keep you all updated once I know something.

Troy, a friend of our family whom was our neighbor for years & years was diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's disease about 4 years ago. He is such a magnificent person, always friendly & cheerful, willing to help anyone in anyway he could, as a matter of fact his entire family is the same way. He's only 36 years old with a beautiful wife & 2 small children, it's such a shame. He has been in the advanced stages for a little over a year now and has decided that this is the end of it. His tracheostomy will be removed this Friday at 4:00 pm, in the comfort of his home, where hopefully he will peacefully be sent to the heavens above.
If yous can please keep him & his family in your thoughts & prayers it would mean the world to me and I'm sure his family as well.

I would like to request a prayer request for my sister.
I do have a prayer request while I'm here :)
My sister has been out of a job for over 2 years - she is a teacher and was teaching at an intercity Catholic school and they just did away with each top grade every year and her number was up 2 years ago - she has interviewed several places and is unable to get a job. The school system she lives in - someone told her they have such great subs that they never hire from their sub list b/c they want to keep the good subs! She had 2 other interviews and they have already filled one position. While she has 10+ years experience of teaching she has only taught at Catholic schools and public schools don't look at teaching in that system as experience, so she's a "new teacher" but with 10 years experience. The company my brother in law works for wants to transfer him but if my sister gets a job that will at least keep them here is what they are thinking. My mom is freaking out b/c she doesn't want them that far away! My sister is getting very frustrated to say the least.
In addition, she also has been having a lot of foot pain and went to the dr. and found out she has a bone spur on her heel and arthritis. (join the club ;))
She was waiting yesterday for the dr. to call her to so she could be referred to a podiatrist but they didn't call her and when she called them there wasn't anything on her chart and the dr is out of the office until the 2th. She is getting depressed and discouraged.
Thanks!

My father needs some PT prayers. I have probably mentioned before that he was diagnosed with CLL (chronic lymphocytic leukemia) some years ago. His oncologist only does chemo when his count is within a certain threshold, and then he really hits it hard.

He will be getting chemo today, Wednesday & Thursday this week. I was away at college the last time he had chemo, so I haven't been around him during this difficult time. I hope that my mother & I can support him during this trying period. I would really appreciate it if you could keep him in your prayers. He needs strength of spirit as well as healing. Although CLL is not the type of cancer that is ever "cured", he hopes to manage it and maintain a good quality of life. It has been nearly 2 years since his last chemo treatment, so we hope that this treatment will help him maintain a similar length "remission" period.

I've been checking this thread periodically and all PTers and family/friends mentioned here remain in my daily prayers.

Thank you. :)

I am keeping everyone in my thoughts and prayers.

I could use a few myself - my father-in-law is in the hospital, we are not sure what is wrong with him right now except that his sugar is extremely high. Also, a friend of mine at work had surgery yesterday and the doctor messed up and clipped an air sac. She's in a lot of pain and the doctors aren't sure what to do about it yet. Thanks everyone!

My sister has been out of a job for over 2 years - she is a teacher and was teaching at an intercity Catholic school and they just did away with each top grade every year and her number was up 2 years ago - she has interviewed several places and is unable to get a job. The school system she lives in - someone told her they have such great subs that they never hire from their sub list b/c they want to keep the good subs! She had 2 other interviews and they have already filled one position. While she has 10+ years experience of teaching she has only taught at Catholic schools and public schools don't look at teaching in that system as experience, so she's a "new teacher" but with 10 years experience.
Thanks!
My sister heard from the 2nd school that she interviewed for - and it was a thanks but no thanks. She knew a couple people in that system that put in good words for her to no avail. :( She is really starting to sound depressed and down and that is so unlike her. I am not sure where she is going to go from here b/c she hasn't had any other interviews.

We are needing urgent prayer and thoughts for a devout Foster mama of cats, named Lisa.

She does so much to help cats, she recently helped place 40 cats out of a 100 cat situation.

She has cancer, and is in the hospital. It is very serious, they tell her husband that she is 'shutting down'.

She has a soul kitty named Julius, and several other cats, and a dog.

She is only 49.

She needs a miracle.


Please pray.

Please, more thoughts for my grandfather :( -
My grandpa lost my grandma in October, he is still very depressed and not sleeping well at night. And he has really really bad emphazeyma (sp?) and has to have oxygen on him sometimes. :( Plus, he is not eating well...especially with all of the medicine he's on. He's losing his taste in foods...he does't really think that much food tastes too good anymore. I am so worried about him. On my grandma's headstone, she wanted one really big one that had her on one side and my grandpa on the other for when he passes away. He kept changing the subject, he really didn't want to talk about it.

One more request-
I don't think I've ever posted about my other grandpa before (which I should have, because he also needs lots of prayers), but I will share with you the story:

My grandpa had awful liver disease this past winter. It was from him drinking. He couldn't eat well....so he lost ALOT of weight. He finally got to the point where he didn't drink anymore, and he gained alot of weight back (not fat, just healthy weight.). I am so glad he stopped drinking, but I am really sad about this part: He has just started drinking again :( The doctors that he goes to don't think it's going to be much longer before he...


Prayers, please! I will pray for everyne else who has requested. I am glad for those of you where your requests have turned out good! :)

We are praying for Lisa, that our Good Lord will show her mercy, and help her Family and Companions,
that a very sad situation.

One of our horse trainers, Alison, was walking a horse down the street today- She tried to get the horse to cross the creek, and he came down on her while attempting to jump it. Her nose and possibly a few other bones in her head are broken, and she's not doing too well. She was rushed over to the trauma center at UCLA.

She could probably use some prayers. :(

My cousin Leslie was in a horrible auto accident Thursday and may not make it. She was 8 months pregnant; her daughter was driving her to a pre-natal appointment in Fresno. Both of them were hurt very badly. Leslie lost the baby and has severe spinal cord damage and massive internal injuries; the doctors are keeping her unconscious because her injuries are so bad. They don't expect her to make it and if she does, she will be paralyzed. Her daughter also had spinal injuries, however is doing okay and may be released soon.

PT prayers work. I got word today that my cousin Leslie is out of the woods. She did suffer spinal fractures, however there's no evidence of actual spinal cord injury - she is able to move her fingers and toes which is a good sign. She also suffered a serious concussion, but again is very lucky there was no brain damage. Apparently because of her pregnancy, she couldn't get the seat belt around her belly and therefore wasn't wearing one at the time of the accident. Also, the vehicle she was riding in didn't have a passenger-side air bag. Both she and her daughter are lucky to have made it out alive.

Of course, continuing prayers will help them both to heal. Thanks everyone.

My friend and foster for the humane society was going to have her 19 year old cat, Charlie, put down this morning. He was vaccinated last week and the vaccines weakened him and he contracted upper respiratory. He has not been eating well and is very arthritic and she has thought of putting him down before, but with the upper respiratory she made the final decision yesterday. When my friend woke up this morning to take him to be PTS, Charlie was eating like a horse and running and he was not at all sniffly. She called the vet and he suggested giving him a few more days to see how things go.

She is going out of town tonight because her husband is donating bone marrow to his sister and they have to drive to Gainesville. She has 16 cats (14 of them are fosters) and I am watching them all. Please, please, please pray that Charlie can hang on until she gets back into town. She told me to use my judgement, to call her with updates and she will tell me if she thinks he can't make it until she comes back, but I really want her to come home to him, even if the very next day he needs to be PTS.

I really need your thoughts and prayers guys, this is a tough situtation. Charlie did not look good yesterday when I went to see him but I am hoping days like today continue.

I got a VM from one of my best friends and her 28 year old brother was in the hospital having brain surgery b/c they thought a blood vessel had burst or a tumor had burst. She called me back later and left a message that it indeed was a tumor that leaked and they got 90% of it and he shouldn't have any paralysis or anything but will need therapy/rehab. Then I got a call from my dad saying that the minister had been down there with the family and they requested that he call my parents with an update. (their dad lives right beside my parents and knows how close we are) and he was sitting up talking - other then being in shock I had handled it alright up until hearing my dad say that and then I got a bit weepy. so send up a prayer and healing thought for Kevin would you please? My friend and her husband just lost her husband's dad about a year ago unexpectadly he was only in his 50's so this probably hits really close for them.

Long story short, some good friends of ours that live in California were in Decatur, IN today to pick up their motorhome after having extensive work done on it. He wasn't feeling well so they took him to the hospital in Decatur (is there really a hospital in Decatur?). Turns out they are transferring him to the hospital in Fort Wayne, IN right now, as we speak....to have a pace maker put in!!!!! :eek: :eek:

So here's his poor wife, thousands of miles from home, with two dogs on her hands, and a husband in the hospital!

The good news is they have plenty of friends in the immediate vicinity who can help out, and their motorhome will be safely parked in Decatur, and if it turns out they have to fly home, there are plenty of good friends who would volunteer to get their motorhome and car back to California for them.

These two are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. She doesn't have a mean bone in her body, and like her husband likes to say, she has never met a stranger. He is a great guy also and is a retired LA County fireman. He just turned 70 earlier this year, but he looks and acts much much younger than that. He stays fit and we see them out for walks all the time, so I just can't believe this is happening to him.

So, if you could all spare some good thoughts and prayers that the surgery goes well and he's back on his feet soon, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

[sparks19]

Oh my I am praying with every bone in my body. :(

My friends brother is home and doing well. Has been having people stay with him, he should be able to drive in about 4 weeks. He was delayed getting out of the hospital b/c of infection that set it.

a family that I was good friends with went through a terrible loss, the mom lost her husband and 14 year old daughter in a car accident, the accident happened on August 8th and took the life of the 14 year old right away, and the husband went to a hospital and then faded away, my 11 year old friend was in the car but she only got a broken leg, but she has a broken heart too, the mom was not in the car, but the mom and daughter are VERY sad right now and I'm really sad so please pray that the family will be able to lead a happy life sometime soon.

[Dorothy39]

How very sad, so tragic.

I feel so sorry for the 11 year old for being , because she will always have the memory of where they were going,and, how it happened.

The Mother is awash in grief, relying on her only daughter as proof she had a Husband, a family , that was once so whole!!


Their Burden of Sorrow is Deeply Felt!!!!


I will Pray that together, they can build upon all the wonderful memories that are now flashing in their minds.

I will Hope, that their trust in Happiness is Restored.

Thanks you Dorothy39, the family is very strong and I know they can make it through this horrible event, they're staying strong and the 11 year old is back at home with her mom, I am still extremely sad, but I bet Trish(the mom) and Catherine(the 11 year old) will be able to live happy lives some day.

It is very quiet here, while I sit and read several threads on all of the forums.

The prayer request thread is a very important one, in my opinion!!!


So, I will think , deep positive thoughts for this man, Jamie.

I pray that he will recover , and that he will always be surrounded by all who love him.

I pray that he will be Blessed in knowing that his two children are now in Gods Hands.

And, I feel so bad for your sister as well. :(

I would to have prayers for our new mayor, Bob O'Connor. He just became mayor this year and is a very popular personality in Pittsburgh. He is in a battle against a rare form of cancer. Today he was downgraded from stable to serious condition and is in intensive care. I know PT prayers work!

I am requesting prayers & thoughts for 3 things please if any has any to spare.

My grandmother has advanced alzheimers, the doctors say she has a week left to live.

Nanook is loosing weight rapidly. We saw the vet yesterday & had some tests done. The cancers are starting to suck the life right out of him. (we are grateful that he has lasted this long though, the cancers should of begun to act up like this a 1-2 years ago).

Joe's friend, also his boss just suffered a heart attack or stroke. He is in surgery right now. The doctors do not expect him to make it though.

What sad, tragic events...just out of nowhere, it seems...my prayers go out to everyone involved.

I am asking prayers for continued healing; prayer has already helped:

1. My employer, who has really improved his temper and is more open to admitting his part in things that go wrong.

2. My friend Irene, who is facing serious vascular bypass surgery (abdomen).

3. My mom, whose vertigo has recurred, and I hope can be treated again.

4. Me, for increased emotional stability so I can be a good friend and employee/colleague.

5. My mom's one cat who has chronic URI, and has changed meds again...still scratching himself in front of ears and under chin.

Thank you.

A friend of mine from work, Debra, hasn't been well the past couple months. She's been violently sick and I picked up that she was having problems with her boyfriend. I was told yesterday that he hasn't been treating her well, not abusing her or anything but being a real jerk towards her. She just found out she's pregnant... and I know things are still not good between them. I'm so worried about her, she looked terrible at work today... If anyone could say a little prayer for her it would be greatly apprechaited. She deserves so much better....

My sisters friend needs prayers right now.

Her dad, an ex-volunteer fire chief has died this Monday. I just found out this evening. He died of a heart attack. I never met him, but he was a wonderful man from what I hear. He was a volunteer fireman for one and very kind. I don't know the girl either but I can only imagine what she is going through.

:(

Please keep my hubby, JoJoe in your prayers. He goes in tomorrow at 7:30 am for the next round of tests for his heart problems. Let's hope this procedure is easier on him than the last one, and that there are no complications. Thank you so much.

Prayers for my friend Irene...she has waited and waited for surgery, has dealt with doctors who have finally started to communicate with each other (heart, vascular, GP) - has gone through another painful angiogram...her seventh in the last year at least...

Please pray for strength to be given her, and that she will have her surgery at last, and can begin to recover instead of getting worse and worse.

Thank you.

[Dorothy39]

Catty1,

Dorothy39 here~~~~ And YES , I will keep your friend , Irene, in my thoughts and prayers for proper communication as well as for her Strength to Endure . I pray that she will receive the attention due her and that any surgery done will result in her road to recovery!!!!!!!!!!!

Please pray for me and my family as well!!!

A wonderful cousin of mine has been battling Pulmonary Fibrosis for the past three years. He was advised by his Doctor to have additional testing done in July because he was still experiencing shortness of breath. His test results confirmed not only Pulmonary Fibrosis over taking one lung, but, Cancer in the other that has spread to his liver as well as his bones.


He is 12 years older then me and I have ALWAYS looked up to him !!!

I have visited him while he is in the hospital, knowing full well that his days are now numbered. I have been with him and his family for the last few days, ( sort of feeling numb right now) and yes, I am crying as well!!! :(

He is still the same Wonderful "Bob" that I grew up loving, (We even laughed today!!!) :D :( He is on Oxygen now, and morphine~~~~~~~ :(

I am so grief stricken and in Need of Pet Talk{{{ Hugs}}}} now, to help me get through this moment of transition in my life!!!

[Catty1]

Dorothy - PRAYERS and HUGS to you...what a sweet blessing to be able to laugh with your dear dear friend!

I wish Bob peace, and mostly - love and laughter.

He is in my prayers, as are you and his family.

[Dorothy39]
