Do any of you have prayer requests??

Thanks, Karen and Pat. This woman's fiance heard from the father last night. He is ok. I guess they had gone to the local Urgent Care where the Mental Health dept is and they called an ambulance. She was getting a psych assessment at a city hospital last night but was too drunk for it to be completed so it will be done this morning. Apparently she had a brain injury some years ago (I never could tell!) and has really gone off the deep end in the last three months. The three of them were already seeing an addictions psychiatrist here, but she obviously needs a different intervention at the moment.

All is as well as it can be. Thanks so much for the prayers and thoughts.

Yeah, and probably an appointment with a neurologist as well, or a specialist used to dealing with brain trauma!

I don't know how long ago the brain injury was, but I am sure the docs will be filled in on that.

Thanks again.

I have two friends who are in difficult situations. A friend from high school is moving her father into a memory care center next week. He is forgetful and at times gets angry because of all that he can't remember. A friend from college e-mailed me that her mother entered hospice care a few days ago and isn't expected to live very long. Two long time friends and my heart aches for both of them.

They will be in our prayers.

Pat, prayers for your friends.

Prayers to all that need them.

Prayers for your friends, Elyse, and their family members who need them.

My college friend's mom passed peacefully at the hospice, with her family there. I'm glad they were able to be present. Have not talked to my friend from high school yet this weekend, but I'll re-post if I get an update.

Thank you again,
Elyse

A couple I know have a son who was adopted when he was a baby. He has grown up with ADD and the parents finally tried meds after trying every other option. He can manage fine.

He was 16 and his GF moved in with the whole family as her home life was not very good. She was expecting though very few people were told.

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.
