I'm ok thanks - my lo's are too little to understand anything more than that grandad is poorly, and we're going to see him on Saturday.

Thanks for all your thoughts.

Thank you for popping by Urban Please let your lovely mum know that she and your dad are in our thoughts & prayers. Do keep us updated.

Don't try to do too much and don't feel silly about being a bit "wobbly" at the moment - You've only just given birth!!!!!

This is bonkers but just reading this makes me realise how lucky I am, and how grateful that you are all out there for me when things get tough. If anyone has a mo pls can you send a prayer for my dad who's in hospital tonight (again) and is frightened as he has dementia.

Thanks for being here --- off to find some Kleenex.

wisteria, praying now for your dad.

TAFKA thanks for letting us know and please pass on love to DO and your dad. Hope you are ok.

yy Hermya, take it easy on yourself, you are bound to feel a bit wobbly, it takes time to settle in and to heal from childbirth. Be kind to yourself and don't try and do too much :)

Thank you for all your prayers and messages.
Elkiedee, as Dippy says, we are not religious either, but know the power of prayer. Thank you very much for posting.

I left Bob on a drip and with an oxygen mask, they were trying to balance his oxygen intake, which wasn't easy. he was very much 'out' of it, but he managed to eat a sandwich and have a cup of tea. Hopefully he will sleep. As must I. Goodnight

DO - Prayers for you all xx

Prayers please for our marriage, not looking good, no way out, poorly children, stressed out ds1 doing gcse's next week, bleugh!!!! tolerance, energy and happiness please.

Prayers for DO and her DH.

Praying for all the stresses in your life Sooz.

Prayiung sooz

DO hope you got a good night.

Just phoned the hospital and Bob is much better. They actually went over to him and asked which was nice. I'll be going in this pm when it is proper visiting and the consultants have been round.

Good to hear Bob is better, DO. Praying for full recovery.

Praying for you and your family Sooz.

I hope your dad is doing OK in hospital wisteria. Praying for God's love to surround and carry him.

hermya Glad your stitches are healing so well, but like others have said, don't try to do too much. Transition into motherhood is often much greater than we think initially. Be as gentle on yourself as you are with your new lo .

How was your first day back at work Caz? I hope it was OK.

Glad to hear that your friends dd is doing better on tube feeding MHD. Praying for a break through for her.

Interloper thank you for the update. Praying the doctors find some answers soon and that the other dcs will be OK.

Here life carries on as normal. So much to do, too little time to do it, but am pleased to report that my sister feels very relieved now that she has accepted the new job. The notice period will probably be tough, though, as she expects to be put on gardening leave while the old company get to work convincing others to stay.

First day back was really positive thanks ginger - I'm feeling much more confident about work now. Thank you everyone for your prayers.

Prayers by the barrowload for all here.

DO, keeping Bob in plenty of prayers - what a shock for you.

Good stuff Caz xx

Your poor dad, wisteria, so frightening for you & so tough for you to watch. and prayers.

Glad Bob seems improved DO Continuing to pray for his recovery. xx

Glad your sis accepted a job GC Hope it goes well for her.

My lovely lovely Sooooz, how I wish you lived closer to you and how I wish there was more I could say or do except that I am here for you. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Not been here for ages ladies!!

We are actually OK (for once) - dd2 has been suffering from croup but is fine.

Things for prayer:

1. Dd2 - waiting to hear from the hospital if she needs an operation on her dodgy hip. Could be a 12 week recuperation with traction etc .. we find out in May.

2. Ds - has an extra row of teeth growing. Hopefully going to be extracted before Christmas at Glasgow Dental Hospital.

3. Waiting for a dyslexia assessment for dd1 - speling has become a HUGE issue and her new teacher (since August) thinks a proper assessment is in line - he is himself dyslexic, but the best teacher I know (was ds's P2 teacher and has dd1 for p6)

4. My mental health. Crap. I am really struggling. Have been diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder and am coming to terms with a lifelong disability rather than an illness that will get better one day.

5. Church. Dh has applied to the Baptist College for Rev training (part time). Eeek! Am I up to being a minister's wife?

I pray for you all often.

Hi all. I've been a bit of a lurker on this forum for a few weeks. Just wanted to say hello and that I've been praying for everyone.

Hi weegie I can assure you that us minister's wives are no different from anyone else. You'd be great. Sorry about your dx but at least you now know and can carry on from here learning to live with it. I find the best thing is talking to others suffering from the same condition, have you been able to find any support groups? Prayers.

Hi Jaffa - nice to meet you, tell us about you :)

Ginger - glad your sister feels better and Caz, so glad work was ok.

Friends dd doing OK. She has managed to eat a bit of a meal the last 2 days. praise God. Excited about my coffee seekers group too, have been talking with a couple of them today and it's obvious God has been at work in their lives and they are taking steps forward. so exciting I'm just bursting with it :)

So much to pray for.

Very tired today but just popped by to catch up and bookmark.

Goodness me, WM, a lot on your plate. Praying for patience and for strength as you wade your way through all these things and get your head round your latest DX. Like MHD said, Vicar's wive's are "real people" and the more real, the better IMHO

Prayers needed here too please. Too much going on for me to cope with. Latest is phone call from school, concerned about DS's behaviour... whilst they were on, I mentioned about both DS and DD getting called retards whilst at school (DD told me head has dealt with it, but even so). Have lost some paperwork I need. Struggling with change at church and worried for the future. And I have a sermon to write for Sunday...

Prayers Mary. Sometimes these "little" things that mount up and come all together really wear you down.

Have emailed you Captain

Oh I want a Jaffacake now. Welcome here.

Prayers for youWM. I agree with MHD. I would far rather a minister's wife who felt would understand when life is a bit rubbish, rather than one we had who appeared to have everything handed on a gold rimmed plate all her life and just could not "lower" herself to anyone having any "issues". God will use you in a huge way with all this.

I have just been to the hairdressers for a bit of pampering, but have come home in a lot of pain. I had not anticipated that I would not feel relaxed and yummy!! Only 7 days to surgery, feeling really rough. Prayers that I get through the next week without going mad and with no increase in pain, please.

Have emailed you CD.

Mary, you have a lot to be facing at the moment. So sorry things difficult for the dc. Praying you find the paperwork and get the sermon written :)

PA - hi - has been great chatting with you. Sorry to hear that you didn't feel so good after the hairdressers. Praying that this week will bring peace and healing for you. xx

Paperwork is found, thank God! And sent off... feeling at the end of my tether though. DS is in trouble at school. Have just had an argument with talktalk over our package... argh! Need to calm down, definitely... breathe... breathe...

Hi all,

Sorry this is a bit of a me post, can you pray for me. I've got mastitus and feeling quite poorly and sorry for myself.

Thanks.

Oh Hermya praying. Mastitis is the pits. Gentle hugs.

Mary glad you found the paperwork. Hope you are now feeling calmer. take it easy....:)
