    Prayers for the Family of our dear Shipmate, Janine, who had her heavenly homecoming with her heavenly family and also heavenly ship family members today.
    All who knew her will need strength in the coming days. Janine's cancer was awful and painful and her loved ones were right by her side.
    Now she is at peace.

    She will be missed. Prayers her husband and family are in my prayers.

    She never stumbled in her certainty of faith ... may she rejoice in the glory of the Lord she loved and served.

    The Telemum is now extremely ill. The doctor told me to stay home and monitor her tomorrow to see if she needs to go into hospital and have IV antibiotics.

    Quite what conditions would have to be met that aren't already being met, are not clear.

    So I guess for my birthday I get to sit here and watch my mother die. She gave me a wedding card for the occasion because she got mixed up. This is almost certainly the only birthday card I will ever receive for the rest of my life.

    May Janine rest in peace and rise in glory. Prayers ascending for Michael and all others who loved her.

    Praying through here, for all, by name.

    Thank you for the prayers! The trip to Japan was physically difficult, but worth it.

    That sounds terrible, prayers for you, and your mother - and for those caring for her, that they may do so with care, skill and compassion.

    Praying for Telepath and her Mum. Hard indeed.

    Thanking all for prayers for my daughter who is now back home, and doing well, though still a little scarred physically and otherwise. Asking for continued prayers for my Giraffe of a son, who saw the Dr. yesterday and got little joy (well, no joy, really). Scans are planned, but it may just be that he has to take more time off sports, and at his age, even a month is an eternity.

    For basso, for healing and justice.

    Oh Janine. I am so going to miss her Louisiana-purple prose and her sass. I would not have put it past her to do belly dancing and a capella singing at the same time, either. When I see her again, she’ll have perfected both.

    Praying for Michael and all the rest of us. What will become of us now.

    For saysay.

    For the Finance Monster to slink away from ArachnidinElmet with its tail between its legs.

    So glad you are safely home, Ross.

    Thanks for all the prayers - the Telemum is responding to the different antibiotics, fever is gone, pain much less. So I don’t think she’s in danger right now, but she’s not exactly safe to leave alone either. Tomorrow morning is her long-awaited appointment with Tissue Viability, and when they see her like this I pray they will do all the right things and do them quickly.

    Thanks for safe return of Cathskitten. For healing and swift restoration of sporting performance for Cathsgiraffe.

    For P.

    Glad to hear positive news about the Telemum - prayers continuing to ascend for you both, and for all others in need.

    Okay so it turns out the cellulitis cleared up ages ago. Her ulcers are caused by an arterial issue near the groin of that leg. She will see an arterial surgeon within the month. Her vitals were otherwise fine.

    They thought the rest of it was due to a UTI so I managed to get her to an emergency appointment at the GP, where she gibbered in pain and gasped for breath. Results of the urine test will be back Friday, in the meantime she is to continue the amoxycillin which she now thinks she's having a bad reaction to.

    She is now feeling very unwell and nauseous and we have dialled 111 and someone will call her back in two hours.

    Flipping heck

    Thanks everyone. It is just a UTI and the doctor is downstairs sorting her out now. PHEW

    I had to go in for yet another MRI (and was in that damned tube for more than 90 minutes) because of serious pain in my left hip, knee, and leg generally. The meds all seem to make me sick. I just want to be able to walk reliably; is that so much to ask? (Rhetorical question; the answer seems to be "Probably.")

  • I'm weeping over the Brexit clusterfuck - and either want off this planet or Jesus to come back - and get this all sorted...
  • RossweisseRossweisse Hell Host, 8th Day Host
    I need to ask for further prayers: I saw the oncologist this morning, and I have a fractured femur, right where it hits the hip. He's not sure whether the radiation oncologist can do anything for the pain. He's also putting me on a new med, a form of oral chemotherapy, which carries with it a raft of unpleasant side effects. He says, "I don't think this is a downward spiral," but I'm trying not to feel discouraged.

    Oh Ross, I'm so sorry to hear this. Prayers ascending for you - and for everyone in pain.

    {{{Ross}}} No wonder you had pain in your leg!

    Prayers ascending for you and for all in others in need.

    (((Ross))) Have… have you been *walking* on that?!? For healing. For pain relief. For encouragement.

    Please no Brexit, please. Can we have some competent adults in charge here.

    For the Telemum to be able to do something that is very important to her next week.

    So now I take NormalCat to the vet and they say she has a large mass in her abdomen and it’s beyond anything that would be operable. She also has either feline leukemia or hyperthyroidism - we’ll find out tomorrow. Then I’ll have to bring her back in, which the Telemum is threatening to do even though she isn’t strong enough, so I have to rush back home and throw my body in between her and the cat.

    (I so want them to be wrong and for NormalCat to be on track to live out the long and healthy life that is rightfully hers)

    Telepath, I've been *traveling* on it.

    <votive> For the Telemum and NormalCat.

  • NuthatchNuthatch Shipmate
    I'm reading through and praying for everyone here. So many needs.

    Please pray for me? For a solution to my loneliness and for healing for two (very minor) health problems that have both being going on for months - my arm and my eyes. The doctors' attitude seems to be "Well, you're 63, what do you expect?" I know that's probably true and I know many people have much worse to cope with but it's all getting me down a bit.
  • MaryLouiseMaryLouise Purgatory Host, 8th Day Host
    For healing and an end to loneliness for Nuthatch 🕯

    For Rossweisse 🕯

    For Telepath, Telemum and NormalCat 🕯

    For all of us seeking the Light 🕯
  • CathscatsCathscats Shipmate
    Praying for Rsossweisse, the Tele family (including the feline component) and Nuthatch.
  • Please prayers for my family again. Dad went to be assessed at home and they suggested that his bed was moved down to the living room until he could manage the stairs not realising this made him housebound and unable to leave the building in the case of fire. We are now trying to get an extension of four weeks with his stay in intermediate care in the hopes that at the end he will be able to do the stairs. This is over six weeks so powers that be do not like it but it is what the physio recommends.

    Thanks

  • (votive)

    For kids affected by the mysterious "PANDA" disorder, their caregivers, and everyone else affected. May medical folks and researchers know what it is and what to do.

    It's controversial, and often shows up after a case of strep throat. Kids display all sorts of weird behavioral symptoms, go wild, and even become violent.

    (I'm watching tonight's episode of ABC's "Nightline", which is all about PANDA. I'll end the description, and you can look it up.)

    Asking for prayers that some piece if this mysterious puzzle fits together soon.
