Prayerline...

[Dexter Morgan]

I don't know if this is an appropriate thing to ask for prayer for but, my kitten Maddie had her eye surgically removed on Thursday, and seems to be somewhat sick. I'm really concerned that she might be getting pneumonia. If she isn't better by tommorrow, I'm calling the vet. Maddie and I, can use all the help we can get, so I'm asking everybody, to please pray for Maddie, because she's only 5 weeks old,and she's had a real rough start in life.

I just thought I'd give an update..... Our prayers for my kitties worked!!!! They are doing much better. Dudley, has recuperated from his problems last week,and Maddie's surgery was a success, and she's recuperating very nicely now. We had a few rough spots last week, but she is doing very well now. Thanks for the prayers guys, I really believe they've been answered.

I've got a heavy heart tonight. A friend of mine is going through a real bad time. His Dad has suffered from cancer for years, and it went to his brain, and he passed on Monday. My friend and his fiancee are pregnant. She's 22 and has had 3 heart attacks. It is really a miracle that she became pregnant to begin with, and it was a wonderful surprise. They promised Joe's Dad, if he could hold on until March, before anybody held the baby, Joe's Dad  got to be the very first person to hold it. Well, as I said Joe's Dad passed on Monday. And more tragedy has followed. Today, Joe's fiancee Vica was having tests done, to see if she would be strong enough to carry the baby to term. During one of the tests, the doctor inserted a scope into her womb,and ruptured her womb, causing a spontaneous abortion. I was soo shocked when I got that call. I could not believe such a horrible thing could happen to these wonderful people.  Joe has had a kidney transplant, and I understand that he is physically sick from all of this, he hasn't slept since his Dad died. And Vica is in a hospital in Iowa, all by herself. His Dad's funeral is tommorrow, and we've got an ice storm moving in. I honestly don't know how much more that poor family can take. Please say a prayer for my friends Joe and Vica they have been through sooo much this week. Thanks.

Thanks, it has been a very difficult few days. I just talked to a mutual friend, and they think Joe may have been taken to the hospital. His body is weak, and I think he is probably at a breaking point.

Thanks HH. We need all the help we can get.

Okay my turn.

My friend Allison went the the ER today and was put on bed rest. She is 20 weeks pregnant - I think that is wrong and she is only 18 but I'm not the doctor! She has what is technically called and incompetent cervix, meaning it is too thin to carry a pregnancy. She lost a child last year at 12 or 13 weeks. She has been having contraction like cramping. They gave her medicine to stop that but they may have to sew her up.

Please number one pray that she carries this baby to term or at least close enough that it will be okay to deliver, but also pray for their financial security. She is basically the bread winner in the family, as her teaching job pays more than his physical therapy job. If she goes on bed rest, she will eat up all of her sick leave which is what we have to use for maternity. We don't get a paid maternity leave like most other jobs do. She has a little bit of disability from the county and has an extra disability that should pay the mortgage for a few months at least. It is a real mess.

Sadly these two are the most optimistic people I know and it is to a fault in my opinion. They plan for the best and get the worst unfortunately. This baby is named, has a website, the nursery is almost complete, etc... If she loses this baby, it might kill them both spiritually. Please just pray that everything works out in all areas of this pregnancy. Thanks!
