Prayers for some good friends of ours, please, who we heard last night lost a baby with an ectopic pregnancy that ruptured. Surgery, lots of pain, much blood lost and of course the loss of the baby. It's so unfair. Prayers for strength and recovery.

madhairday · 11/05/2010 09:22

Prayers for your friends Mrs C. so sad.

CD - how awful, but as pps have said, something good could rise out of the bad, God is a God of new beginnings.

Praying for Morgan.

Mary, I have something for you, might be too late, sorry if so, will send it. was away the weekend so just catching up. Hope you feel much better soon.

MaryBS · 11/05/2010 09:28

Hi MHD, no its not too late, and thanks

teaandcakeplease · 11/05/2010 22:04

Praying ladies

DutchOma · 11/05/2010 22:56

I know it is very late, but I thought there might be some people praying during the night, so here is a quick update on baby Morgan. He had surgery today and came through it; the next 24 hours are crucial. His mother Hayley is very upset but my friend Kathy is coping reasonably well.

PositiveAttitude · 12/05/2010 05:56

Not a night owl, but up with the lark, , so praying for Morgan and his family.

DutchOma · 12/05/2010 08:15

Thanks everybody. Our prayers are such a witness to this family. Kathy, who is a church member with us has grieved over her children not knowing the Lord at all and has now found that every time she speaks to her son he asks for prayers.
The fact that she can tell him that not only her home church is praying for them, there are also others all over the country that do is a mighty witness to the power of our Lord.

CaptainDippy · 12/05/2010 11:52

Sounding good about Morgan DO

Oh MrsC - so for your friends How is the lady holding up? How ill is she? So so unfair and so May God hold them so close at this tragic time

How are you feeling today Mary?? Hope you are better ASAP.

teaandcakeplease · 12/05/2010 13:28

Hello

Can you pray for my mum? She's called Viv and is 65 and is having terrible trouble with her hip and knee and is in agony. Seeing a physio right now but it's really tough. She also has diverticulitis and its causing her a lot of pain. She's very tearful and feeling so low. Please can you lift her up to the Lord.

Also things with Emma are still tough and her H is still being rotten to her, keep her in your prayers, that she makes the right choice for her and LO's and God is with her.

Thank you

MrsCadwallader · 12/05/2010 13:53

Thanks CD - not sure how she is now, we haven't spoken to them since Monday evening. She was still in hospital and they were trying to manage the pain and get her bloods back up. They don't live locally so we haven't seen them. Thanks for the prayers.

Prayers for all - TACP prayers for your mum. My FIL gets diverticulitis so I know how miserable it is. I do hope she feels better soon.

MrsCadwallader · 13/05/2010 10:01

Quick update - our friend was allowed home Monday evening and is feeling reasonably well in the circs. Planning date for a visit when my exams are done! Thanks for the prayers - please pray the emotional recovery continues, as well as the physical.

amberlight · 13/05/2010 11:55

Prayers continuing for everyone.

madhairday · 13/05/2010 13:27

Praying for your mum, TACP. Hope she gets some help and some respite soon. Sounds very painful for her.
Mrs C glad your friend is home and ok. Still praying for her.
Keeping praying for baby Morgan.
How are you feeling Mary?

Can you pray for some friends of mine - I am starting a daytime alpha ish thing (not alpha, much more relaxed and just exploring) in June and have invited a few friends who seem interested. PLease pray they come along and get to meet God. That would be fab

BlueEyeshadow · 13/05/2010 13:30

My friend's nan passed away this morning. The family would welcome prayer.

MaryBS · 13/05/2010 20:58

Praying for all intentions here...

I am still feeling ill - think my sinuses are blocked, am taking decongestants, but every time they wear off, I feel headachy and dizzy again... ugh. Am quite sad, missed the big Ascension Day service this evening

teaandcakeplease · 13/05/2010 22:02

Praying for everyone.

Sending you a ((hug)) Mary, I get horrible sinus head aches and feel your pain

Littlefish · 14/05/2010 06:38

Please can I ask for your prayers again everyone.

This time it's for me. I am in the process of applying for new jobs. My current work situation is very uncomfortable and I know I have to leave. However, I feel very sad about leaving, because of the children and families I'm leaving behind.

I'm a teacher, so there are really only 2 weeks left to find a job if I want to leave at the end of this academic year.

Can I ask for your prayers for strength and resilience.

Thank you.

DutchOma · 14/05/2010 08:14

Some excellent news about Morgan:- he is off the ventilator and yesterday afternoon his mum was able to hold him and begin feeding him.
Praise the Lord

MaryBS · 14/05/2010 12:00

Would appreciate some prayer for my state of mind. I feel badly let down and am resisting the urge to lash out, because I want to make them hurt like they have made me hurt, and I know that isn't good. Especially as I have made a supreme gesture of forgiveness and had it chucked back in my face.

weirdbird · 14/05/2010 13:54

Still around and still praying, keep forgetting to post - lol

Mary - Praying for wisdom, peace and strength for you.

Littlefish - praying you will find something to move to soon.

CD - Hope a new venue is found soon x

I had my 2nd MW's appt and all seemed well.
I also had my 20 week scan and apart from a scary 5 min when she kept re-measuring the leg bones because they were coming up too small compared to the rest of the measurements (praying like crazy) it was all fine in the end!

It would appear that we are now have a boy after 2 girls which is all exciting and scary at the same time.

Please pray that my hiatus hernia behaves and I don't need to remind the consulants that I am meant to be under them for this pregnancy as they seem to have forgotten which I am far happier about as then I won't have to fight for a home birth!

I am also worried about our finances and proposed changes to tax/benefit allowances, with my job having gone we are just keeping our heads above water, but would not cope well with a major change like the loss of child benefit!

Hermya321 · 14/05/2010 22:24

Praying for you all!!

I hope you're all well.

ZipadiSoozi · 15/05/2010 22:57

Aw mary, sorry you are feeling rough! prayers for a quick recovery!

PositiveAttitude · 15/05/2010 23:13

Prayers for you Mary.

Good news for you weirdbird.

Waves and prayers for everyone.

amberlight · 16/05/2010 08:33

Keeping prayers going for each of you

BlueEyeshadow · 16/05/2010 15:09

Our neighbour's son, his gf and her 3 year-old son have been staying with our neighbours and the little boy has been diagnosed with ADHD, but seems mainly to be a normal high-spirited 3-year-old with no real boundaries or routine. W (our neighbour) finds it really hard to know how much to get involved and how much advice to give as he isn't actually family, and it's very tiring for them having M around. Please pray for wisdom and patience for them all, and for little M who has had such a chaotic life to get the attention he needs to get back on track. Thank you.

Praying for you all.
