Prayer {{{hugs}}} for Podmog. Sorry things are grim

Notquitegrownup · 29/06/2008 10:08

Good morning all. Flying by. Toooo busy at the moment.

Hugs and prayers for all who need them, specially Pudmog, CD and Mufti.

Mufti, dh and I are poo at communicating too. It does get a little easier once the little ones are not so little and there are a few more spaces in which to talk, although he's so busy at work and so stressed at the moment, I'm giving him as much space (and as many strawberries)as I can.

Mary, thank you for keeping Andrew in our thoughts. Prayers for his family and for those two couples too.

Rosey, I'd loooovvvveee to join you at Wimbledon next year. When/where/how soon do you have to apply for tickets/passes?

God bless all.

MaryBS · 29/06/2008 12:29

Please pray for Marg, my Reader friend. She lost her dad about 18 months ago, i think. Then her niece lost baby Charlie. Now she just emailed me to say "she found her mother dead this morning". No other details than that. God strengthen her and wrap her in his love in this huge test of her faith.

DutchOma · 29/06/2008 12:33

That must be so hard for her. Holding her in prayer, that she may have the peace of God around her wich is above all our understanding.

DutchOma · 29/06/2008 18:23

Evenstar has asked for prayers on the very sudden death of her husband here

JentlyDoesIt · 29/06/2008 21:14

Hi all,

How terrible for Evenstar

Hope everyone is ok. Thinking of you Podmog, CD and Mufti and all those in need.

I am copying and pasting the following from my post natal thread - a bit of a weekend here...

We ended up in A & E with L yesterday morning. We gave up with the Colief on Weds as she was bringing it all straight back up. She was ok ish until Sat morning when I picked her up from her crib (she has been lying there happily while I dressed) and she started screaming - and I mean the most heart rending high pitched painful cry I have ever heard. She didn't even register that she had been picked up and could not be consoled at all. She also wouldn't let us near his tummy. We rang the out of hours Dr and they said to take her straight to A & E. Turns out the poor wee thing is severely constipated. We have been given glcyerine (sp) chips to "insert" every morning (that one isn't in the parenting manual!) and a small dose of Lactulose every day. Thankfully she has now had a clearout

Apparently it is really unusual for fully breast fed babies to get this bad and I have to give her boiled water a few times a day now too. I am also having to watch what I eat - not too many bananas etc but she is much happier already. Scary though

so, prayers for DD would be much appreciated - thank you.

CaptainDippy · 30/06/2008 12:11

Praying for Marg and for Evenstar xx

Prayers for poor DD JDI .....

Sorry it is only quick, buzzing by .... so busy ....

MaryBS · 30/06/2008 15:57

Prayers for Evenstar,

Eek re: your DD JDI! You must have been so worried!

PRAISE GOD, I heard from Ruth today, she has been successful and will start vicar training in August (so soon!)

Swaliswan · 30/06/2008 16:33

Please will you all pray for a girl I know who has started giving evidence in court today against the man who raped her last autumn? The whole thing is going to be the most horrendous experience for her if it isn't handled well so please pray that isn't the case. Please thank God that she has found the strength to go to the police and even more strength to stand up in court. Please also thank God that she knows that she can ask for prayer and trusts in Him enough to do so.

DutchOma · 30/06/2008 17:30

SS Certainly I will be praying for your friend and giving thanks that she knows God and has asked for prayer. Please let ehr know that our thoughts are with her.
How are you?

CaptainDippy · 30/06/2008 17:41

Praying for you friend SS . xx

Oh, still very run down I'm afraid DO. I'm very anxious about my blood test results but I guess that there isn't anything too wrong otherwise I'd have had a phone call today. I'm on another NVQ week this week so I'm working full time and am wondering yet again what I've let myself in for

On a lighter note, DH surprised me by taking the whole week off of work to sort out DD's bedroom!

CaptainDippy · 30/06/2008 20:15

Go DH!!!!

Can you please pray for a lady in my church in her early 50's who has had breast cancer twice previously but now has a mass in her pectoral muscle. This lady is a saint she really is never complains always working hard for the church etc etc.

This is the kind of lady that she is she has known for two weeks but didnt want to take the shine off the commissioning of one of our church folk for ministry in a church up the road last night so made sure that no one knew until after this last night also wanted people telling before next sunday when one of our young folk is enrolled into the church so that her news would be old news.

ZipadiSuzy · 30/06/2008 21:39

OOOOH! Hia, Just literally flying in as ds1 has blocked these nasty 'trojen horses' (he says

Thanks CD for passing messages on! xxxxx

ZipadiSuzy · 30/06/2008 21:41

Sorry had a quick read of all prayer requests so prayers to you all, will post more personal messages when Trojen Horses have ridden off into the sunset for good!!!!!

DutchOma · 30/06/2008 21:43

Podmog, don't know why. Use the one on my profile an see if that works?
I e.mailed you too.
SS sorry to hear you are still feeling tired. Try and stick with the NVQ and find some joy in it again, you were so pleased when you were able to do it. You didn't know of course that you would feel so ill. When will you get the result of your blood tests? Please let us know. Good that your DH has taken the time to sort out bedroom.
NSFN, how very sweet of your friend to be so considerate, bless her. Hopefully the health issues can be sorted
How are you?

CaptainDippy · 01/07/2008 08:05

Bless your friend, nsfn .... am praying for her.

Great to "see" you Soooz! Hope Trojan Horses do trot off for good asap

Had an email from Mary with an urgent prayer request ....

"Nicola, aged 16, has contracted meningitis whilst on holiday in Cyprus. She is in hospital where she has been given only a 20% chance of recovery. Her family have asked for prayers"

OP posts:
DutchOma · 01/07/2008 13:51

Prayers for Nicola and her family.

DutchOma · 01/07/2008 20:20

Just found this on another thread in MN here. Thought I'd just share

notsofarnow · 01/07/2008 20:30

oh mary doesn't it just throw life into perspective when others are so ill.

cd how are things between you and dh?

dutchoma loved that clip and some of the others linked on that page.

amber32002 · 02/07/2008 06:56

Hi everyone, still keeping up prayers for everyone here.

Still not a brilliant few days. There's been good bits, so it's not all bad, but I've had to stop dealing with one individual as he wouldn't work with me in a disability-safe way despite all the info I gave him. That was a real problem and meant I had to contact my support team as I was left really scared (which is so difficult to explain to people as they see me as this intelligent woman and think I'm much stronger than I am). Prayers please that they'll manage to help him understand, and that the project will still work without me being in direct contact with him any more...

And prayers that my new vicar will stop asking me to just keep altering the info sheets I gave him and will actually do something to help me soon.

I so need our summer holiday.

MaryBS · 02/07/2008 08:29

Its MrMartianBishop's funeral today. Please pray for MB and their family.

I've got today off - KS1 sports day today. I'm going to use the rest of the time HOPEFULLY to finish my coursework for this module (the next one starts next week! Ethics )
