    This is a sad story all around. The 16 year old is the former best friend of the son of one of my co-workers. They lost touch when my co-worker's kids transferred to parochial school. The parents are from Argentina, very kind and hard-working people. So - if you could say a prayer for Alex and his parents as well as the girl. The oldest guy- He can go to prison for a loooong time as far as I'm concerned.


    Thanks,

    Please keep Keegan in your thoughts again - I need to call the vet in the morning b/c apparently the scabby areas from the cone Keeg wore decided to abscess. One is about the size of a golf ball. She is so uncomfortable and won't let me even touch it. Scratched her face bloody yesterday on both sides. I really hope they can make her comfortable and I hope they don't have to knock her out again - we could use the prayers. thanks!

    Staci, I'm so sorry to hear this. She sure has been having a rough time lately. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent her way. Please take care. ((HUGS))

    Prayers are also going out to everyone in need.

    Dasher isn't doing well tonight. I had to make him eat dinner and that is so unlike him. He's got a cough he can't quit. Was fine this morning. Played fetch and was so happy. Probably take him to vet in morning. I'm more than likely not going to sleep too much. Feel sick with worry.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    I'd like to ask for prayers for Miss Mare. She'll be having some tests run this coming Wednesday. We don't know what's wrong so we're starting with her ovaries/hormones and ruling out as we go. To say I'm scared is a bit of an understatement.

    I'd like to ask for a prayer request for my dear friend Father Rick Frechette of Haiti. He's a Passionist Priest who is also a doctor, who runs an orphanage and a hospital in Port Au Prince, Haiti.

    I recently saw a video of him and he looks SO tired and worn out. Please keep him in your prayers. This man has given his life to the people and children of Haiti. A wonderful man with a heart of gold!

    Thank you for your thoughts and prayers.

    We have recently gotten so pretty bad news. My dad, who I have been estranged from for 7 years was diagnosed with prostate cancer. We don't know yet if it is early stage of what. Also the docs found a strange spider web type mass in my mother's left breast. They are not sure what it is. They are running tests but are quite baffled by it. Anyway, both of these stories came to be within hours of each other. My brother called me about the problems with dad and less than 2 hours later my mother called me about the mass she has. Needless to say things are a little overwhelming now. I will keep you updated as I know more. Thank you all.

    Sincerely,
    Michelle

    Michelle - I'm so sorry that you received a double dose of bad news. You and both your mother and father will be in my prayers - praying hard for positive outcomes.

    Could I ask everyone's prayers please for my friend Bea? She's a mom with two young children and a loving husband, was diagnosed two weeks ago with breast cancer and operated on yesterday. She is an oncology nurse herself, so has seen this many times, please pray that she gets the care she needs to not only survive, but thrive.

    She migrated here from Ireland as a young woman, and her husband's parents migrated here from China, so Bea's children have the middle name of "Chirish" - isn't that fun?

    Thanks, she may have a hard road ahead, but is loved by many, so all the prayers we can add would help. Her husband has created a carepage for her, it's here: Bea - you have to log in, but I was able to use the log-in I created for Johanna's niece Samantha - it's the same company that does the pages all over, I guess!

    My mom hasn't felt "like herself" for a couple of years. She is 77 - had an MRI and bloodwork, all of which was excellent, thank God.

    Today we followed up with the neurologist. She is in preliminary stages of a Parkinson's type of syndrome.

    It certainly could have been far worse, and the doc said that because it is so late in onset, she likely won't have disruptive symptoms for another 12 years. Mom asked him about how this affected her likelihood of needing long-term care, and he said it is way too early to be concerned about that.

    We're each a bit gobsmacked...but prayers for her would be appreciated.

    Thanks.
