FriendofDorothy · 12/02/2012 22:20

Wow. Great job :)

WOW! Just WOW, BES, and thank you Thanks.

Right, better get on with praying.

I am relieved as I nearly lost the post and had to pop over to another tab to post it. the computer is being really slow and I am fed up.

Wow BES. Fantastic prayer round-up. Thank you!

Popping in quickly to mark my place... You're all in my prayers.

PositiveAttitude · 13/02/2012 02:28

Marking my spot.

Thanks BES - that was a mammoth task!! Smile

DD3 is home with us now, from London. Trip to Ghana is off, she is down about this. I think she may have a labarythitis causing bad dizziness, sickness etc following the meningitis.

DutchOma · 13/02/2012 10:18

BES When I set the prayer thread up I did it in Word first and then copy and pasted it into a new thread, then do the formatting with bold.
In that case, even if you lose the thread you can go back to what you have done in Word.
I'm so glad you have taken the plunge and made such a wonderful job of it, it's much nicer if you don't feel you have a job for life because you have done it once.

thejaffacakesareonme · 13/02/2012 10:30

Thanks BES. That was a mammoth task indeed.

Baby is due three weeks today. I'm very excited. I've been getting some twinges in my pelvis and keep wondering if it is the start of things. Mind you, I've been feeling like this for a week now so it's probably just braxton hicks contractions that are stronger than I've been used to.

HallelujahHeisBorntoMary · 13/02/2012 10:32

Thanks BES :)

More prayers needed. Firstly for a soon to be 16yo son of a friend, who was rushed into hospital yesterday with pneumonia, and it was really scary for a while, but they've stabilised him - currently in the high dependency unit though. And for our former vicar's MIL AND also his father, both seriously ill in hospital, and for the logistical difficulties of being in 2 places at once.

madhairday · 13/02/2012 16:59

Wow bes! Fabulous job. Thanks so much :-)

blackeyedsusan · 14/02/2012 10:46

am off out for the day. hoping the car behaves!

SweetestThing · 14/02/2012 17:06

bes, well done - a great summary at the start of the thread to remind us of who we all are and why we are praying!

Prayers for all who need them. Hallelujah, any update on your friend's DS?

Young lad from church has to undergo more treatment for his cancer, which has sadly returned - prayers would be very much appreciated.

I am still thanking God for my good news last week. How wonderfully he has guided those who treat me and supported those who love me.

amberlight · 14/02/2012 19:11

Bes, thank you for that.

Not a good day. Had herceptin intravenous dose today but my blood pressure was way higher than it's supposed to be, and that's whilst on blood pressure tablets. So back to GP etc. Would appreciate prayers, as there's a big family history of strokes etc so high blood pressure is not a good thing.

SweetestThing · 14/02/2012 20:00

amber, prayers for you. Such a tough time you're having!

gingercurl · 14/02/2012 20:53

Amber, I hope it all settles down for you. Praying for you and everyone else.

Could do with a little prayer boost. Have an important presentation tomorrow that I am very nervous about. The presentation is prepared and am now working on getting the words right, but I really find these things so,so difficult. I'm always convinced I'll be revealed as a fraud and incompetent.

SweetestThing · 14/02/2012 21:44

gingercurl, you're no fraud! You're strong and competent and you have the might of this thread behind you. Oh, and God as well!

FriendofDorothy · 14/02/2012 23:03

Hmmm I have my initial appointment at the fertility specialists tomorrow. I have been crying for days as so many people I know seem to keep announcing their pregnancies.

I would appreciate your prayers.

lostmywellies · 14/02/2012 23:11

Brilliant, bes, how helpful!

blackeyedsusan · 15/02/2012 11:47

fod, hope it goes well today.

Friend's DS is a lot better, and MAY be released from hospital later today. :)

madhairday · 15/02/2012 14:32

Prayers for amber, BES, ginger and FoD - and Mary's friend's ds. :)
