hi all

thanks so much for you concern and prayers. We are doing ok. It's difficult, but everyone is being so brave. My friend was a very committed Christian and our friendship was cemented hanging out at the Church youth group and under canvas at Christian camps together. But when she met her non Christian boyfriend who later became her husband she slowly drifted off. She never lost her faith though and I'm sure she is at peace with God now.

thanks again for you prayers. xx

DD is going to the GP's at 10:00. DH has stayed home to come with us as we're concerned that DD needs to be admitted to hospital. She can't keep anything down and is floppy and sleepy.

I hope that everyone else is OK today and that all of the other poorly people are on the mend.

PenpotEca - praying for you. This is not necessarily a time to be brave but to allow God to carry and comfort you through your grief. He has very broad shoulders and doesn't need you to be brave. I know that it is painful to stop being brave and feel the intense sense of loss. We are all praying for you xxx

ZipadiSuzy · 31/03/2008 10:17

SS - Prayers for your precious dd - hope she gets the attention of the medical practice she needs. xxxxxx Take care yourself!

CaptainDippy · 31/03/2008 10:35

Praying for DD, SS .... do keep us updated. xxxx

OP posts:
NorthernLurker · 31/03/2008 10:43

praying for your GP visit SS. B was very sleepy when she was ill a few weeks ago - it is very scary - but it is their way of conserving energy to fight the bug. Hope you see an improvement soon.

Eca - we sang In Christ Alone (Townend and Getty) at church yesterday. The last verse makes me cry:

No guilt in life, no fear in death,
this is the pow'r of Christ in me;
from life's first cry to final breath,
Jesus commands my destiny.
No pow'r of hell, no scheme of man,
can ever pluck me from his hand:
till he returns or calls me home,
here in the pow'r of Christ I'll stand.

I am sure your beloved friend is safe with the Lord.

CaptainDippy · 31/03/2008 10:46

I love that hymn, NL - thank you for posting. Makes me feels all "yes, that's right - I'll just press on through -rah...."

OP posts:
NorthernLurker · 31/03/2008 10:48

It is wonderful isn't it - the tune is so uplifting - but it's the words that make me cry. We are so weak and silly and wrong - but we have a God who is in charge, who knows what He is doing and who will NEVER leave us. Stirring stuff!

CaptainDippy · 31/03/2008 10:52

We're having double convos NL

OP posts:
NorthernLurker · 31/03/2008 10:54

I know - better not get confused and post something about child's sleeping patterns here and a bible verse in the other place - or maybe I should

CaptainDippy · 31/03/2008 11:54

Well they do already know we are bible Bashers (cos we're sooo sensible ); so perhaps it would be such a bad thing!!?

Swaliswan · 31/03/2008 14:05

GP sent us up to the paediatric assessment unit at the hospital. We stayed there for a few hours and have been sent home sachets of dioralyte for her. Their main concern is how dehydrated she is. They hope that she will rehydrate well at home with the dioralyte but they have given her an 'open admission' so if she is still unable to keep anything down for the next 24 hours then we can take her straight back to the unit.

Thanks for all of your prayers xxx

NorthernLurker · 31/03/2008 14:06

Hi SS - poor little dd. Hope she improves soon. Are you ok? Hang in there

CaptainDippy · 31/03/2008 14:14

Praying for sweet little DD's rehydration. Praying you won't need to go back in. How are you SS? Is DH still there? xx

FAQ · 31/03/2008 14:17

I could do with some prayers too.......don't really feel up to posting it all on here too, but a search for posts by me in the last week (sorry there are quite a lot) particularly in the last couple of days will tell you why......

FAQ · 31/03/2008 14:25

oh and also continued prayers for our Vicar please who is a very bad way, just sitting at a table, having to be reminded to eat and drink, and it was only yesterday (after having been admitted over a week ago) that she recognised 2 of her friends from the church.......)

PandaG · 31/03/2008 14:27

I'd just come here on a break form my assignment (urgh!) in order to ask for prayers for FAQ - but I see she has come herself

love to your daughter SS - praying she soon picks up. peace for you too.

ECA - continuing to pray for you and your friend's family.

NorthernLurker · 31/03/2008 14:28

Just wanted to add another vote for that hymn - fantastic words, aren't they?

Did I post this before?

In Christ Alone

I sing along to it...

CaptainDippy · 31/03/2008 15:50

Thank you Mary

Praying FA. xxxxxxx

amber32002 · 31/03/2008 17:02

Prayers for you all, and especially for FAQ and for SS's daughter.

Prayers please, if you would, for me as I'm trying to get loads of ideas, info, support and help together for a national disability policy. Lots to think about, not least because I have to make sure that everyone's kept informed and properly thanked and included and updated, and my brain isn't naturally brilliant at it. Perhaps prayers that people will be patient with me...

CaptainDippy · 31/03/2008 17:15

Bless you amber - praying for clarity and purpose. xx
