I don't know if it was a god-incidence, but I really was away with god this morning whilst doing a lady's garden, she died a few weeks ago and we are tending it, but then I remembered when I got home that it would have been the time of Steves funeral.

God bless OJ and her precious darling children!

Swaliswan · 18/06/2008 20:02

Evening All!

Sorry that I haven't been on here for a while. I've been so busy especially with DH being away and having to work fulltime last week because of my NVQ.

Can I ask for a few prayers please? DD fell off the bed this evening whilst I had my back turned for a split second. She seems absolutely fine and was happy/smiley afterwards (actually it calmed her down a bit so that she was just about manageable!). I'm a bit worried that she has hurt herself though. Also, DH is feeling very sick and has fallen asleep on the sofa about an hour ago. I have a sore throat and headache mixed in with general extreme tiredness. Our health is appalling! I'm very worried as if I have another period of sickness in the next year then I could be put on some sort of disciplinary action at work. I'm off to see my GP next week as I'm getting so many infections and have some other niggling problems. Please pray that he takes me seriously and that I actually tell him this time about some of the more embarrassing problems I've had ever since DD was born

Praying for you all, with lots of help from CD's round-up. It's good to be back!

PandaG · 18/06/2008 20:15

hello all

Mum's op went well, I spoke to her a while ago. She has lost 2 of the 3 lobes of 1 lung though. so, mostly good news. I am exhausted and on an emotional rollercoaster, but on the up I think. Thanks for your prayers.xx

CaptainDippy · 18/06/2008 21:14

Praying for the health of your little household. xx Why do you think DD might have hurt herself? xx Hope DH is ok. xx

Glad your mum is ok, Panda Have ben praying for her today. Praying for quick recovery. xx

Right, off to relax, then bed.

Swalisan - nice to "see" you here again!

Have you tried Zinc supplements? I was very ill a few years back with constant low grade infections (colds, UTIs etc) and the doc suggested either a high-zinc diet (pretty much loads of broccoli) or supplements.

Though I still get ill and am esp prone to UTIs, I am in much better health since I started on Zinc+VitC supplements. Even my traditional-medecine-is-great-dont-you-know-I-do-I'm-a-GP dh has agreed that it has made a huge difference!!

Prayers for the rest of you. One more essay by tomorrow 4pm and I am done!!!

MaryBS · 19/06/2008 08:42

Quick prayer request - please pray for Lorna, who is now facing increased chemotherapy doses as they attempt to control her cancer (lymph nodes/glands unsure which)

CaptainCaveman · 19/06/2008 10:05

Praying for your mum Panda, sorry I somehow seem to have totally missed the fact she was going for an op. Prayers for a swift and unimpeded recovery for her.

Praise God for my lovely gp. She has signed me off work until 3rd July (2 weeks) when my mat leave starts. Am as weak as a little kitten!

Please pray for my friend Nat, she is 27 wks pg and fell downstairs possibly due to a blood clot on the lung. She also hurt her back when she fell so she is currently immobile in hospital. Praying for an uneventful recovery for her, and for her dh who is coping at home with a 4yo ds and 2yo dts!

CaptainDippy · 19/06/2008 10:52

Morning all! How is everyone today? Started off fairly gloomy here, but bright & sunny now Cold still lingering though ..... Yuk ......

Praying for Lorna, Mary Really hoping they managed to control and treat the cancer for at least a little while. How are her family doing? Does she have lots of love & support around her?

Ooooooh, weegiemum Only one more essay to go and then you are freeeeeeee ......

Praying for your friend Nat, CC ..... such a frightening time. Praying that whatever is wrong is treatable and that she is back on her feet soon - Sounds like they have a bit of a handful in their house!! Do keep us updated .....

Good morning all. Flying by.

Weegiemum, if you are wondering where your recent post went, explaining that you are Weegiemum and not Weegie, it just popped up in a thread by FAQ, which I was reading here. Strange when that happens, isn't it?!!

CaptainDippy · 19/06/2008 14:45

Hey NQGU

JentlyDoesIt · 19/06/2008 15:18

Hi all,

Flying by before the babies wake! Praying for your pg friend CC and hurrah for your lovely GP, carry on taking it easy lady!

Panda - I also missed the news about your Mum's ok. Praying for you and for her sweetie

Hello Dippy dear - how are you feeling?

Mary - prayers for Lorna too. I'm wondering if I can pick your brains (perhaps you too Amber) about ASD? I have a few questions about it, if you wouldn't mind? It's relating to a little boy I know with it.

All well here, enjoing the sunshine. Have put a few new pics of the DC's on my profile if you want a peek...

CaptainDippy · 19/06/2008 15:22

Hey JDI Awwww, your DCs are gorgeous Sooooo cute. Your little DS has the most yumsome smile ever

JentlyDoesIt · 19/06/2008 15:28

Thank you Dippy, I think he is like the Cat in Shrek, he just looks at you with those big blue eyes and you go all gooey (bias mummy)!

There are loads more on FB too...

DutchOma · 19/06/2008 16:29

CaptainDippy · 19/06/2008 16:50

LOL @ cat in Shrek - so you think your son is a budding Antonio Banderas!!?

Hi Do! How's you and Bob? xx

MaryBS · 19/06/2008 17:45

Great pix JDI! Ask away re: your questions. You can email me if you'd rather. I can always copy them to Amber.

Lorna has family supporting her CD, she isn't a Christian though.

DutchOma · 19/06/2008 19:00

We are fine CD. Had a lovely holiday, can't believe we've been home a week already

CaptainDippy · 19/06/2008 19:42

OP posts:
CaptainCaveman · 19/06/2008 19:57

Aw jdi what cutie pies - they look very alike too. How are you feeling this week?

Time indeed does fly - one week already since I went into hospital, now where has that gone?! I'm taking every day as a bonus for incubation time . And PRAISE GOD I am so enjoying doing nothing! Today I took ds to nursery, came home and ordered new pushchair on line, lay on settee watching tv, slept for 2 hours, friend came for coffee, picked ds up and am now in pjs whilst dh puts ds to bed. Bliss. Am off back to the CC shaped hole in the sofa

Everybody is so quiet but prayers are needed here
Thank you

amber32002 · 20/06/2008 16:06

Sorry - have indeed been quiet - my brain has been working at half speed all week I think.

Prayers for everyone, as ever. May your Friday evenings be peaceful and relaxing, and your weekends be filled with hope.

Me, I'm off to son's tennis this evening and then footie tournament for son tomorrow, and if I'm lucky, out for the day on Sunday with my sister. I'm trying to ignore the 100ft of garden that looks like a jungle...

Roseylea · 20/06/2008 17:03

Hello all. I would really appreciate a prayer atm - I am feeling v. down, lots of reasons. Dd has problems at school nad she comes home every day all het up and angry - she stood in the kitchen today and screamed and shouted . The reasons why she is so angry are complicated. I'm trying to help her but also to deal with her behaviour and it really isn't easy.

I'm feeling v. worn out emotionally. I've booked to go on retreat soon which is a huge help. And Mary and I are having a magical mystery tour on Sunday so that should be fun! I'm trying not to be too negative for the sake of everyone else but it is just such work holding the family together.
