JentlyDoesIt · 03/06/2009 08:40

Hello all,

Just flying by to say am praying and thinking and reading... All ok ish here, DS is spotty but not too poorly and DP is managing each day. We have had a bit of an issue of solicitors etc but it is all sorted out now and far better than we could have hoped for.

Much love

amberlight · 03/06/2009 14:33

Still praying for all

Swaliswan · 03/06/2009 20:22

Evening Ladies

I'm praying for you all in your individual situations.

A little update from the Swali household...

Little Beth is doing well with tolerating her harness. We go back to the hospital tomorrow for our first check-up and they will be scanning her to see if she is responding to the treatment. Please pray that I can leave clinic with a big grin on my face this week rather than in tears like I did last week Please will you also join me in prayers of praise and thanks for all of Beth's equipment turning up yesterday. We have loads of support from fantastic friends at church. Our wonderful cell group is providing meals for us on thursdays so that we don't have to cook after our weekly hospital appointments.

Other than that, we finally got our car back today with a bill for £775 DH's laptop died with his work on it so we need to spend out on another one so that puts even more strain on the finances. Plus the person who wants to buy our flat seems to be quite unreliable although they may still increase their offer.

MaryBS · 04/06/2009 17:37

Praying for all requests for prayer, both known to us, and those which reside in our hearts.

Please keep P in your prayers, its still not been sorted whether he can stay in this country or not.

And for me, for this job interview tomorrow - that I can place it in God's hands, and that I only get an offer if it is right for me . Also for Saturday, for the training day I am attending, on Autism and Asperger's, that I don't find it too much to cope with, and that if necessary, I will have the courage to speak out if I think something is wrong.

JentlyDoesIt · 04/06/2009 17:47

Oh my goodness I have just come home to the most beaurtiful surprise... some very splendid people who shall remain nameless (you know who you are) have sent me some gorgeous flowers and some yummy chocs

Thank you all from the bottom of my heart, I have cried a little and I don't think the chocs will see the end of the evening

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

ZipadiSoozi · 06/06/2009 12:53

DO - I pray FA is ok, followed her thread from beginning, such a sad lady, I hope she gains some happiness and strength from her children to move on and make herself a new life, maybe she can move house to where her family are near by. But atm she has nobody but mn so I pray she is ok, she is obviously going through all the emotions that you'd expect, but I really pray it isn't long before she can see the way forward without the need for revenge! Time and prayer a great healer for this terribly sad lady!

Please God take care of this family and guide FA into a peaceful state of mind, give her strength and energy to deal with her dc and most of all she could do with some self worth atm.

ZipadiSoozi · 06/06/2009 12:54
