I got back Tuesday morning from my cousin's inurnment and was checking obits for another friend who had passed away, and I got a shock. The wee baby girl, after kicking and everything for the past few months, was born full term - but still born.
I can't imagine this pain except it must resemble being ripped in half.
Prayers, please, for the expectant grandparents, aunts and uncles, and the young parents themselves. There was solid family support and that baby would have wanted for nothing, especially love.
Thank you.
Candace, there are no words that can come close to explain the intense pain along with so many other thoughts and feelings parents feel at the loss of their child at birth. I only wish there was something I could say or do that would comfort them at this tragic and difficult time. If I may ask, when you see them please extend my deepest heartfelt sympathy on a parent's hardest loss and assure them they are in my prayers. The entire family will be placed on our prayer list at church.
Thank you, Eileen.
My SIL Maureen and her hubby Doug could use a BIG dose of PT prayers if anyone out there in PT land should read this.
A week ago, Doug had what should have been a simple hip replacement, but it was not that easy slam-dunk that they were hoping for.. He suffered some very serious and life threatening complications and is presently in a hospital/rehab facility. He was doing somewhat better yesterday, and if he continues to improve, then could be released to home on Sunday, and receive home health care. He has a very long recovery ahead of him.
And to make it all even more stressful, Maureen will be remembering a very sad anniversary, the first week in September. Ten years ago in 2004, her (and my middle brother's) son and only child, passed away unexpectedly at the age of 40 - just 5 months after his father passed at the age of 64.
Please send some good wishes and positive vibes to these 2 good people.
Thanks for reading. :love:
Prayers for Doug and Maureen, and all who love them. :love:
Even routine surgery can become suddenly non-routine. We lost a dear PTr not long ago - I think she went in for a hip replacement as well, and never woke up.
Good news that Doug is improving, and I pray and hope he regains good health soon.
Thank you Candace. Doug had other health issues, but this series of events was very unexpected.Quote:

They will be in our prayers for sure!
Please pray for relief from the severe and devastating drought in California. According to tonight's news, many people can't get what they need for showers and other basics. One woman said their well went dry 3 months ago and after work her husband keeps digging deeper with little success. Emergency drinking water is coming in but the farmers are being hit especially hard. To our PT friends in California feeling the effects of this record breaking drought, you're in my thoughts and prayers for this to end very soon. If you can, let us know if we can help in any way.
Please send some prayers and warm vibes for my sister in law's foster kitten, Bramble. Her gait has been off for a few days now, and today X-rays showed a spine so curved that a bunch of discs are compressed. She is also extremely constipated, and if she can't poop on her own will need to be euthanized. Even if she can poop on her own, she's likely to have only a short time in this world before her curved spine becomes too painful to bear. She's so sweet, playful and beautiful, we're both crushed by the news. I don't know if this photo will show up, but I'll link it anyways...

Prayers on the way for comfort and healing.
Purrayers on the way .
Definitely praying for Bramble. With all my heart.
Prayers for dear little Bramble, and prayers for relief from the California drought.

Say a prayer for my 17 year old leopad passed away last night.
Sandy Frost
So very sorry to hear about your Leopad's passing. 17 years is such a very long time, my heart goes out to you and yours, prayers are on the way.
This is a long shot - PT prayers needed for a miracle.
Two friend of mine had one of their two cats do a "door dart". This was on Wednesday September 24th. He would usually be back the next morning but wasn't...a neighbour said they spotted him by a nearby school but the owners couldn't find him when they looked.
It's a new area in our town and has its share of wild critters. It's been about 10 days now.
Prayers that Pogo comes home, somehow!
Thank you! :love:Attachment 58699Attachment 58700
Prayers on the way!
Also, prayers for Paul's mum, please! She dislocated her hip today, she has transplanted hips on both sides. Is has been popped back in, but it is very painful!
Each day I set aside some special time to pray for animals. I'll be sure to ask St. Francis, the patron saint of animals, to protect Pogo and lead him home safely. Please let us know how this plays out?Quote:

Prayers too for Paul's mum that the hip pain is eased.
:love::love::love::love::love::love::love::love:
I need some unspoken prayers right now. God knows the need.
thank you
Prayers for Paul's mom, that she is more comfortable soon!
Prayers for shais_mom, that the need is fulfilled.
Thank you for the prayers for Pogo. I will keep you posted.
Prayers are being prayed. If God brings you to it, He'll get you through it.Quote:

Prayers for Carmen, that she heals soon.
Asking prayers for me and for my mom. I am crying and angry tonight. I have to go back there and stay overnight. Last minute notice. Long story. I HATE THIS!!!!!
I've been doing everything for everyone including her and it's not enough. My home is filthy. I just want one day off to clean my HOME.
Prayers for you and mom, Candace.

Carmen is recovering. She had a quadruple bypass. She is being mentally evaluated as she is acting very childlike. They do not believe she had a stroke and are hoping that it is a result of the anesthesia. We saw some slight improvement yesterday. My sister's IQ is off the charts but due to her behavior, a nurse asked us if she is special needs. My family thanks you for your prayers.
I hope Carmen continues to improve. Anesthetic can have different side effects with different people. Prayers going out - and I am glad she came through the surgery.
This is a prayer for Greg, who is the son of one of the ladies in my church choir. He went to Washington (state) on a driving trip and while there, his car was found abandoned in a ditch. He has a medical condition, and they're not sure if he had his medications with him or not. They called a Silver Alert which I think is the adult equivalent of an Amber alert. He's been missing since last week Tuesday. So if you could pray for Greg and his mom (Vivian). I met him a couple of times in singles group at church. I cannot imagine what his mom is going through right now.
Thank you so much,
Elyse
Many many prayers for Greg. His poor mom - I hope Greg is found alive and in good health. :love:
Update. Greg suddenly flew home from Los Angeles yesterday. How he wound up in southern California I am not sure. But he is safe.Quote:

Glad Greg is safe. I hope he gets a bit of a scolding for scaring family and friends! :p
Karen, all prayers for Barbara. I hope she beats all the odds! :love:
And prayers for those that I have followed, shared grief, loved, hugged will come out of their cocoon and return the favor.
Prayers for all our dear Pet Talk friends. :love::love::love::love::love::love::love:
Prayers please for a doggie named Doro, and her human, she is needing surgery for a blockage in her intestine. I do not know her, her human just wrote to us as she is reaching out to others.
