Really hope and pray ds is a bit better this morning, mjim.

Quick message from Amber: Brainscans on dh came back ok,praise God, but they are still waiting (and have to wait quite a while still iirc) for the investigations re his heart, so keep her in your prayers, please. They will hear about funerals for their two friends today, so more pressure there.
In the meantime, I really hope that everybody will give Amber the space she needs at the moment and wait patiently for the moment she feels able to come back.

amber32OO2 · 13/05/2009 09:44

Hello
Justine knows I've rejoined, and I explained that I would really like to be able to just be on the prayer chain to ask for prayers for us and our friends at the moment, if that's ok, and maybe a visit to the tearoom (not the one on SN) to have a cup of tea and a slice of cake. I'm not going to be on SN until mumsnet works out if they can do something to help everyone in the right way(not just me) - I think that's fairest on everyone. It's so unfair for any of this to be just about me and I'm feeling really embarrassed and awkward that I've caused all these problems for people.

Clockface · 13/05/2009 11:50

Good to see you back Amber! I am sure things will get sorted on the SN thread but in the mean time it's just great to have you as part of this prayer group!

amber32OO2 · 13/05/2009 12:10

In memory of A, a very intelligent and lovely lady, who lost a long long fight with Alzheimers. And in memory of K, who will be so missed by all who have prayed for her in the very long road through cancer. May they both rest in peace, and may God help all those who have had the honour of sharing their lives.

Prayers for everyone else here

Hello from a very happy Jently-land

MJIM - hope DS feels lots better soon, poor little boy big hugs for him...

Amber - welcome back glad DH's scan was good and lots of prayers for strength through your losses over the coming days.

Got some marvellous news yesterday I have a hereditary eye condition, whihc means I am registered partially sighted, the main problem being I am not allowed to drive anyway, the children are tested at Moorfields eye hospital every 6 months as the condition can present itself up to the age of 2. Yesterday, DS (now 2.6) was discharged from Moorfields care with a clean bill of eye health!!! DD scored really well in her tests but because she is only just 1, they want to see her twice more over the next year just to be sure. I am so very very happy!!!!

Can I just add another request.... Please pray for the families of the four soldiers who were killed in Afghanistan a few days ago. The bodies were brought home to the UK today, my DD and I saw the four hearses drive past - it was heartbreaking. The traffic was stopped and aside from the four hearses there were police outriders, and a number of other vehicles in the cortege. They were shown respect. One of the soldiers was aged just 21 and had been married only 6 months.
Please hold these brave men and their families in your thoughts and prayers tonight.

DutchOma · 13/05/2009 21:12

Thank you for that FluffySlippers. Also praying for the soldier who died in Birmingham today.

karala · 14/05/2009 18:04

I am so sorry that we have lost Amber - I am praying for her and for MaryBS, Justa and all others. Although I don't post much on this board I do read and pray as best as I can.

love and prayers as ever

BouncingTurtle · 14/05/2009 18:05

Another flying visit from me, just wanted to say welcome back to Amber

And prayers for the school where the pupils were injured by the falling ducting - one of the people who I am very friendly with on my training course lives 100yds from the school, in fact up until March of this year, she was a teacher there. So was very worried about the teachers and pupils she knew there.
Thankfully no-one was killed, with 150 pupils in the hall sitting an exam, it could easily have been a tragedy, God was surely watching over them.

karala · 14/05/2009 18:05

Oh gosh, I hadn't read properly - Amber is back. How lovely.

MaryBS · 14/05/2009 18:44

Actually no, she isn't

Thank you for prayers

MargaretMountford · 15/05/2009 09:55
