    For all of us great and small.

    Sorry to pray and run, but the Telemum's heart failure-related oedema is getting worse since she had to reduce her diuretics, because they're starting to trash her kidneys.

    They put her on Ramipril, she was on it for two days, seemed (to me) to improve dramatically, but she *felt* worse, and was apparently told to stop it.

    Now is visibly dramatically worse, ridiculously oedematous and totally unable to sleep. I think she should restart the Ramipril but what do I know?

    Something's got to get better, quickly please (sigh)

    (also I have deadlines and am dicing with them)

    The phrase, 'Pray and run' is appropriate indded!
    Prayers ascending!

    Just heard from my daughter:

    "The MRI of O's brain is clear. He has optic disc drusen which is a physiological condition that affects 1% of the population. It’s calcium deposits/build up behind the eye. Can’t be treated but also doesn’t cause pain. There’s a chance later in life (like 70 years plus) that his vision could be affected by it"

    So relieved! Thank you for all your prayers
  • SarasaSarasa All Saints Host

    Sorry, in my confusion and distress I posted this originally on the wrong threaad. Apologies to Samuel!

    Please pray for my daughter RR L. She phoned yesterday. Husband A leaving her (the relationship long over, no money left etc, my dog didn't mean to kill your cat, etc ....') L now has financial difficulties. Need to pray with her and that she trusts Our Dear Lord to bring good (and His glory) out of this situation. Mrs RR a rock.

    Thank you for this good news @MrsBeaky !

    @RockyRoger , so sorry to hear. Praying for your daughter and all the family. I've put a note on your post on the Infant Samuel's thread.
  • I’m so sorry. Praying.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Mrs Beaky, that's wonderful - prayers continuing!

    And for RR, your daughter and the family - that's not an easy situation.

    Prayers, RR. That sounds very painful. And thanks be to God for Mrs RR.

    Sorry to dp: I do not follow the news but I got a message passed on from the Antiochian Patriarch about the terrible deaths of many religious peoples, Christians, Druze, Alawites I believe, in Syria. My goodness. Lord, have mercy.
  • Such a relief, @MrsBeaky. Prayers for all Beakies, big, little and in-between. May their lives be extremely mundane and uneventful.
  • Adding my thanks and joy for your good news @MrsBeaky , thanks be to God!

    My 91 year old cousin V just had surgery. Her son, who posted it on Facebook, didn't say what for, but he said she was doing well. Still, she is 91, after all, so please pray.

    Sorry to be so honest as usual, but I've taken myself to hospital (mental health). I only say it as I value people here.

    I am sorry for my intensity lately. I should've realised. You'd think after 20+ years of it I would. Anyway. Best place to be.
  • cgichardcgichard Shipmate

    Thank you all. I fell asleep as soon as they showed me my bed. 4 years or so since my last admission... 23:14 and I'll get a cup of tea. Sorry to those where it is not the case, but I am glad, via taxes, this is all free. I know I am very lucky where many are not (was talking online to someone earlier in the week 1000s in debt due to a hospital admission elsewhere).

    Thank you all again.

    Please don’t be sorry. As one who lives where it’s not free, I’m grateful that there are places where it is, and I hope against hope the U.S. will one day become one of those places.

    Praying for you!!

    Thankyou all. This community is wonderful and a comfort. Thank you Nick and LC for the generosity in my musings.

    I do have a lot of time on my hands, but I will try and refrain from the obsessive posting of late.
