FAQinglovely · 03/05/2009 13:42

woohooo - praise God. DH went down to stay with his sister on Friday - just spoken to him and he's been to church this morning - I think that's the first time he's been to church (apart from DS3's Christening) for years

Still worried a little about his mental health - but this is a good thing as I think if he can get back on track with his faith then God will help heal his mental health even if I don't get him back ot the doctors

Happy Bank holiday everyone! It's raining here, DH has gone to work and I have a cold [big self pity emoticon?!] However, God is gooood, and ds happily disappeared off on his first ever residential trip with his class this morning. My baybeeeeeeeee!

DutchOma · 04/05/2009 11:25

ZipadiSoozi · 04/05/2009 16:11

Prayers for fadingaway, especially her children.

Mary - Prayers for you, can I help? e-mail me, you are such a lovely lady and always here for everybody.

Jently, - Glad you had a lovely holiday, how did you manage with 2 lo's we hardly manage going out for a day! It took us 2hrs to get ready for a bbque this morning!

Praise God!!! went on another course for work yesterday to Loughborough University Pool, was fab,(50m long, yikes) courses now finished for this year, completed 3 in 3 months, so qualifications looking a bit better, now I have to put them into practice and gain more experience! although think I will give those back flips a miss, my aching back not quite as supple as I thought

Prayers for my uncle, back in hospital after more chest pains, only had a heart attack 4 weeks ago, he is in denial and very upset.

Prayers for you all to enjoy this bank holiday Monday!

DawnAS · 04/05/2009 17:35

Hello all,

Some weeks ago now, MJIM very kindly mentioned a prayer for my Dsis whose waters had gone early (I think around 25 weeks if I recall correctly...). They did manage to stop her losing all of the fluid and sent her home after a couple of days.

Well I just wanted to come on here and update you all. My GORGEOUS nephew was eventually born at 36+3 on Saturday morning, weighing in at a very respectable 7lbs 10.5ozs - amazing for nearly 4 weeks early!! They actually wonder now if they got the dates wrong as he hasn't needed any help and is perfect.

So thank you all so much for your prayers and good wishes, Ewan Lewis and his parents are very grateful!!

Thank you all again and God Bless.

xxxx

DutchOma · 04/05/2009 18:15

Thank you very much for updating us Dawn and many, many congratulations for you and your Dsis, Praise the Lord for such a perfect new life.

Clockface · 04/05/2009 19:34

Hi all,

just popping on to say I am praying for all.

Giving thanks for Dawn's nephew - hooray!

Mary how are you? hope all is okay xxx

ZipadiSoozi · 04/05/2009 20:06

Dawn - Praise God for your new family!

BouncingTurtle · 05/05/2009 09:00

Morning all hope you are well, yes prayers in faway's direction would be lovely, she is having really hard time. I wish I lived that little bit closer to Durham I used to live 5 miles away but now it's nearer 30.

Hope you all enjoyed the bank holiday weekend. We went to Church on Sunday and there was a lovely skit talking about all the Church related activities that go on on every day of the week except Sundays, really helped us all to focus that we are Christians every day of the week and not just Sunday.

FAQ I hope that God's love will fill you DH's heart and help him through his trials and tribulations
Jently - glad you enjoyed your holidays and how wonderful for you dd's godparents, what a blessing for them to have this wonderful new life about to be born, praying that the rest of LA's pgcy proceeds smoothly.

MJIM - aw prayers for your 'Yukky cold' I've had dd home from school today with similar thing, rotton being all bunged up and conjested. Get well soon, can you get any help with 'N' whilst you put your feet up for an hour (what a luxury)

CD - Thanks for asking of my uncle, he's not well atm, think doctors are trying different meds to see what suits, so he is feeling very weak, all wired up aswell. So continuing prayers for him.

MARY how are you?

ZipadiSoozi · 05/05/2009 22:53

amber32002 · 06/05/2009 06:58

I'm afraid I need prayers about a situation on the mumsnet SN support forum. Not coping at all, don't understand how to put things right, it's just horrible and I feel SO embarrassed and so sick.

CaptainDippy · 06/05/2009 08:23

Holding you in prayer amber- praying for clarity and right words

LOL @ your mummy Soooz Glad she is ok ... scary chemicals! Don't use in an enclosed space, eh!!?

Prayers needed for lady from school who has little boy in DD1's class. Her husband (the one who has walked out on her) tried to commit suicide the day before yesterday Not what she needs right now, she looks exhausted, complete mess

Also prayers for family & friends of man opposite who died of a Heroin OD yesterday

Such a fallen world

I would appreciate prayers too .... feeling rather fragile atm and have lost my mobile - I know it shouldn't matter, but it does. Feels like it is the last straw right now Thank you. xx

Oh Dippy, {{{HUGS}}}} for you and also (virtual {{{HUGS}}} for Amber. It will sort itself out sweetheart, I'll have a look in a minute.
Fading still needs our continued prayers, please.

Clockface · 06/05/2009 10:38

Praying for all.

Amber I am praying for peace in the SN support group.

And CD for the swift return of your phone, and those touched by the death of the man opposite you.

Well I am feeling quite chipper today - I went to visit a young couple last night who are wanting to be baptised. Hearing the story of how God has worked in their lives was really touching. What an amazing privilege to see God alive and changing lives with His love.

I need prayer for inspiration today - I have to prepare a presentation and I've got loads of ideas, it's just a case of knowing what to us and what to ditch, and how to organise everything I want to say...lots of tea needed methinks!

Weegiemum · 06/05/2009 12:11

Wanted to let you know ...

baby F, who I asked you to pray for last week, goes home today, breathing alone. There are no gross problems on the MRI, but no idea what there might be later, physically, emotionally, intellectually etc ......

We are delighter he is OK for now, and praying he will continue to be so .....

Clockface - Prayers your cup stays full to help you organise your presentation

amber - aw prayers for you in this sort situation that you constantly come up against blinkered people , you are a very courageous lady who has put up with lots of problems of late, you could really do with some positivity, support and happiness atm, so keep with us and join clockface with a nice cuppa and me with mi chocolate. mmM think I may have some choccy hobnobs somewhere that I hid heehee{{{{{hands rubbing together in delight}}}}}

Prayers for dd, sick with conjestion atm, so still off school feeling yukky and snotty with sore tummy glands! sorry tmi (aw, my precious little polly pocket)
