Prayers please...


Yesterday my Mom-in-law was admitted to the hospital. Her blood pressure had been up for a few days and she had gotten to the point where she was passing out. While there, they noticed a hard swollen area under her jaw. she's having a biopsy today. Also, the GI guy is taking a look at her becuase she had some blood in her stool. (history of ulcers...) And the cardio guy is looking at her heart to see if there's any permanent damage....For the last year I've been trying to get her to cut back on salt (I have to keep telling her that garlic salt is salt...) and red meat...but everyone in the family has been locked into believing that they are carnivores. *sigh* Please pray for the doctor's and my mom-in-law.....Thank you!

You definitely have my prayers. Hopefully the doctors will get her figured out and she'll be receptive to what they have to say!

I hope this is a life changing experience, and she sees the importance to taking care of herself.
My prayers are with you all.

prayer request


Praying for you and your family. Praying that your mother-in-law rises from this situation with a sound mind and inpenetrable spirit. Lifting you up with the power of prayer so that you may have the strength to support and encourage your spouse during these trying times. May the Holy Spirit cover you and direct your path so that your heart and mouth bid abundance and endurance and healing in the lives of those you love.
May God bless you and speak to your heart.
