MaryBS · 10/05/2008 18:55

Praying for Iwillnot and SS, that God may ease their pain, fears and worries.

about the job CD... tell me if its none of my business, but presumably that makes your finances even worse? Praying for God to provide for you all...

Its "Happy Birthday church" for tomorrow, praying that the Holy Spirit will lift and inspire us all, strengthen us in our faith, and enable us to be good witnesses for Christ.

Swaliswan · 10/05/2008 19:23

DD was born on pentecost sunday last year so I'm looking forward to tomorrow. Her middle name is Isabel which means 'consecrated to God'. We thought that it was appropriate given the day that she was born and she did need a good strong name to make up for her being so helpless on the neonatal unit.

MJIM, IME skin infections can be funny things. I've seen quite a few both in hospital and now in dermatology outpatients. Some respond really quite quickly to treatment, others take a while. Sometimes a bit of fiddling is required with treatment to make sure that things clear up, other times the response is more instant. The more widespread the inflammation the longer it takes to settle down and generally the more painful. If he does come home then he would do himself a big favour if he doesn't smoke, drink or leave his legs down too much. He also needs to regularly slap on loads of emollient to try and keep the skin as supple as possible if his legs aren't dressed. If the inflammation is as bad as I'm imagining, then the skin will have broken down a bit and stopping it becoming dry will keep him more comfortable and speed up his recovery. I've seen some extremely severe infections and have seen these patients make extraordinary progress over a relatively short period of time once their treatment has been fine tuned.

I will uphold your FIL in my prayers x

MJIM I am not surprised by what you are saying. Your FIL was a 'bread and butter' patient on the ward where I used to work. You are right, he does need to lose weight and he is drinking far too much. But, I also understand exactly what you say about the pub being a life line for him. Please take heart in the fact that I have seen a rather large, lovely lady who had most of the skin missing on both of her shins from a skin infection improve greatly from a course of treatment. It did take a while but mainly because of what her skin was infected with. Unfortunately, there is no quick answer for his emotional health. As I said before, I will uphold him in my prayers x

Hi all! Happy Birthday, Church!

Sorry I've not been around much...I've been sooooooooo busy, but in a good way (kitchen being deliverd next week, garden is now re-lanscaped, everything ekse is coming together).

Thanks for the pryer round up CD. I'll be praying for you all on there.

Could I ask for prayers for today? I am preaching and my Pentecost sermon is all about "Breaking down Barriers", and the intercessions will be for the breaking down of barriers in our local community and also globally...the wall separating Israelis and Palestinians, the DMZ separating North and South Koreans, and a million other walls you can't actually touch with your hands but are no less real.

Happy Sunday!
Tired today having been migrainey but never came to much yesterday. Kids and dh and half the neighbourhood kids are tidying our garage!
Prayers we will find childcare to go to our lectures this week as dd2 will be off nursery all week with the chickenpox. We could really do with someone to look after her Wed and Thurs mornings, so hope that will work out - we have a few options anyway.

Hope you all have a good day.
