AIBU to ask for your prayers?

So my lovely friend's son is currently in an emergency operation to save his life. He has not been well for a long time and he never complains and tries to be the most positive person he can be even though he is in pain. There is a massive history of 30 years of illness.His Mum is the kindest most giving person I have ever met and the whole family are lovely.
She has great faith and I have everyone I know praying for a positive outcome for him but if I could get hundreds of vipers behind him then I do believe the power of prayer could carry him through.
If you haven't prayed in a while even better - God rejoices when a lost sheep returns.
YABU: It will make no difference
YANBU: I will try for you as I believe/what harm can it do.

You are all great so thank you so very much.
Honestly, though stable, he is still very ill and they need to do another operation but he is not strong enough so it must wait.
Please keep the prayers going as he really deserves the best in life ( as does his Mum and all the family) Thank you all x

Continued prayers 🙏🏻

Not sure if anyone is still around and I had really hoped to write of a positive outcome next time I posted but after a week of showing some gradual small improvements in ICU he has regressed and is in a grave condition once again.
So if anyone sees this then please pray Lord heal him.

Thank you all.

Prayed for him.

Stoptheraintoday · 18/09/2025 11:21

Thanks everyone. He is still very up and down but I think he is making two steps forward then one back so moving forward albeit very slowly.
He deserves a little miracle if anyone does.
I do appreciate your prayers x

Wishing all the very best to your friend’s son 💕

I am keeping him in my thoughts and prayers .I believe praying can help when all else has failed. My child is proof of this .when I see them and there children I know how lucky we are .I see them fufulling a life time dream of beautiful wife and children and I am eternally greatful..so I hope this young man has the same .🙏

@Stoptheraintoday I have seen your thread and prayed. God hears.

Stoptheraintoday · 20/09/2025 08:27

Thank you all.
Sadly the news is not good as he has suffered a major set back and his Mum, who has so much faith and hope, feels that a miracle is all that can save him.
I so appreciate everyone's thoughts and prayers. @Fedupmumofadultsons your story gives me hope.
