It was the car battery Sad Replaced for a small fortune. Ouch!

DutchOma · 28/11/2010 15:36

He's in a specialist care centre now, where he can stay for up to 6 weeks. Obviously hoping to have him out for Christmas. He is making great strides, he can make himself a cup of tea and get around with the help of a stick. I am gradually calming down, but still very easily dislodged into tears and exhaustion.
Going to turn all phones off and listen to the Advent service from St John's soon.

CazandBelle · 28/11/2010 22:28

Hi all...

Have been away for the weekend visiting a friend in Eastbourne. Have only just had a quick skim through now - so apologies for lack of personal replies and prayers.

Praying for all the needs on the thread though.

This really has been one of the best weekends we've had in a while. I feel so calm and together since last weekend. Long may it continue, although I'm sad with the festive season approaching. Too many things we're missing out on this year, too many should've beens.

D0 glad to hear the progress for Bob. Will pray that he is home for Christmas.

Dippy thanks for asking about DH - he has had mild headaches on and off all week, but he's ok. Continuing to pray for God's hand in the results.

jaffacakeaddict · 29/11/2010 06:36

PA - prayers for you today

PositiveAttitude · 29/11/2010 08:47

Thank you Jaffa,

I have been lurking and praying for you all on this thread, but have found it a little bit too much to add at the moment.
recovery is not as good as I had expected, but seeing the consultant later for the results and will see if there is a reason for me feeling so useless!

MaryBS · 29/11/2010 13:01

Can I just say, praise God! A good and productive morning. Now please God, let DS have a good day at school...

madhairday · 29/11/2010 14:12

That's great Mary. Praying for DS.

PA praying for you today, let us know how it goes,sending love prayers and hugs.

I've had a great morning too, been to the monthly church leaders together meeting for our city, always v uplifting worship and testimony. Such exciting things happening all over the place. Lovely to see God moving in power. I pray today that you will all experience something of this too.

Caz, praying for you and dh.

amberlight · 29/11/2010 16:38

Prayers continuing....

CaptainCaveman · 29/11/2010 18:21

Prayers for you all

DH has his hearing at 11am tomorrow, please pray

PositiveAttitude · 29/11/2010 18:41

Will Be praying CC.

God certainly answers prayer, results today.... Benign!! Yeah!! Grin
Also, he is not surprised at all that I am still feeling so zonked, due to the length of the anaesthetic needed and the size of the tumour removed, which is really reassuring. I hope to be able to ease myself back to work gently starting next week, but take it slowly.

Thank you for all your prayers and support. Sorry for not being around, sometimes I just feel I need to dig my head in the sand and pretend that life is not actually happening!! Head should now be coming out slowly. Blush

madhairday · 29/11/2010 18:45

Oh >

I am thrilled, just so thrilled, I am so, so happy (can you tell?)

Praise God :) :)

Praying that the recovery will be quick now and you'll feel back to normal.

PositiveAttitude · 29/11/2010 18:48

Love the huge hug MHD Grin.

NorthernLurker · 29/11/2010 18:52

Positive attitude - that's wonmderful news about your results Smile Hope you feel better soon.

Well I have seen a lot of prayers answered this weekend. My sister and bil's wedding was wonderful. It wasn't the easiest day - dh and I both pretty drained and tired but our journey down there was uneventful -despite the snow! We all kept it together pretty much - a few tears but much, much happiness. My sister wasn't wearing a traditional 'bridal' outfit - smart jacket, trousers, pretty shoes and her hair up with flowers but I have never seen anybody shine more on their wedding day Smile Bil was in good form - he didn't have the chemo on Friday. The wonderful nurses at the unit felt it was likely that he would be unwell and rearranged it for today. I feel angry that the oncologist didn't do that when they asked about it. So frustrating that he just saw the treatment - but at least the nurses saw the patient. As a friend of mine said 'Thank God for compassionate nurses'. WE had a lovely meal and took lots of photos in the snow Grin Sis and bil had a night at a lovely hotel and all in all we couldn't have asked for more in the circumstances. So now on with the next thing. Smile

MaryBS · 29/11/2010 18:58

Teaandchristmascakeplease · 29/11/2010 20:49

CC - praying for your H and justice tomorrow. Proverbs 26:2, Psalm 59:1, Psalm 35:1, Psalm 71:1 and Romans 8:31 claiming those scriptures for him!

PA - Woop Woop! God is good, yay!

NL - sounded like a beautiful wedding praying for your BIL

Teaandchristmascakeplease · 29/11/2010 21:19

Ladies my twin brother just transferred me some money and texted me! He said he received some money from two sources that matched exactly what I had to pay for the car battery and that he felt it was for me! Wow! Jehovah Jireh!

MaryBS · 29/11/2010 22:13
