This morning I went in to work and was laid off. I am a married father of 4. This is the most devestating news I could get. Please pray for the future of me and my family. It seems hopeless today.

    We lost a friend and coworker last night.In the last month me was diagnosed w/ diabetes and lukemia.Then he got an infection in his eye and it moved to his brain.We know he is in a better place now but his family needs our prayers.This brother was only fifty three years old.This is why you tell your family and friends you love them every chance you get.You never know when God will decide it's your time.

    I just got off the phone with my best friend. His brother, also my friend of 30+ years, is in the process of losing his wife. She went for a quick bike ride and was involved in an accident. I do not know the details of how it happened but she did not survive. This is going to devastate Mike. His wife Diane was a beautiful,sweet, caring woman who lit up any room she was in. She was only in her early 40's and this nightmare is hitting the family like a ton of bricks.
    Please include Mike and Diane in your prayers.

The prayer is that God will give me and the wife direction and a clam assurance to pick up and move our family 500 miles away from the country to the city.

    My dad has influenza real bad and he is having a real bad time. He was a firefighter for 20 years before SCBA plus he smokes. He went to the emergency room for the second time in his life Monday because he could not breath. His blood pressure was 68 over 49.

    Toorrow he is going to go get some nerve pills to help him relax. I guess he is scared because he cant breath. I understand that because when i had a trach i couldnt breath good so i know how he feels.

    He is the nicest man i have ever meet. I wish i could have been like him. I am more like my mom. She is the one with the temper. He is 78 and i have only seen him mad 4 times in my life. Its hard watching someone you know go down hill little by little.

    If you can say a nice word or pray for my dad Edwin.

    this midwest flooding is getting all Biblical.

    Levees are busted. Dams are failing.

    farmers are on their third replants.

    Water is as high as it has been in the last 100 years.

    More rain is in the forecast.

    Lord, have mercy.

    My niece, my dead brothers daughter, is in need. She is 32 and looks 50. She was 3 when my brother and her mother divorced, and he did what turned out to be a pattern for him, he left his ex to raise her and saw her maybe once a year until his death.

    She started using drugs at 15, and my brother died when she was 17. She finished high school, but then just fell into drugs full time.

    When she was 19, she went into a court ordered treatment and cleaned up. She married and had two kids. She was doing okay.

    When she was 23, she got divorced. She had the kids, but struggled. Soon she was back on drugs, arrested, and lost the kids. Since then, she has gone down hill, been arrested a hundred times and is homeless.

    Got a call last week from my sister-in-law that she had been arrested again, and they were going to put her in a treatment program for the umpteenth time. She wanted her mother to call me and see if we would pony up for private treatment.

    We have helped her many, many times without any luck, and 4 years ago I told her I was through. Don't call me, come see me, or write me a letter until you've cleaned up.

    I went to see her in jail today, and the judge is waiting to see if she is going to swing private care this week, or she's headed to the state hospital. Private care is $36,000 for 30 days in treatment and 180 days of outpatient. She was convincing that she wanted to clean up, but she's burned me before.

    I told her to take the court ordered treatment at the state hospital, and if she completed it, I would pay for the private care immediately following her release with the stipulation that she go straight from one to the other.

    She didn't like it and begged me to let her go straight to the private treatment center, but I held my ground. I figure the State will clean her up, then she'll have a clearer head for the high dollar treatment.

    I had talked to the treatment center, and they said it would only help to have prolonged treatment, and they said she might understand how much better the private treatment was after coming from the state hospital.

    Please pray for Christine (Chrissy). This is absolutely the last time I'm helping her. I've spent so much money on Sandy and me lately, this is going to hurt. If it works, it's money well spent. If it fails, it's an expensive lesson for me.

    Took my wife to the hospital earlier tonight, she had a diverticulosis attack. She's out right now and she's on morphine. She should be okay in a few days.

    A little more help is needed on this one. My daughters best friend Abbey gave birth last Wednesday to a baby boy that had part of his aorta missing. He's in critical condition in intensive care with his chest cracked open. Doesn't look very good.

    My youngest brother has been retired from the Navy for about 10 years. Stomach started bothering him a few weeks ago. He went to the doctor and they done a bunch of tests. Found he has a rare type of abdominal cancer. Started to operate yesterday and found him so full of cancer they wouldn't try taking it out. Around the 15th they are going to start kemo and radiation to try to slow it down. Says he only has a very few weeks left to live. Maybe enough prayers will help. Dam he's too young for this. Only 49.

    My mom got a call from the dr asking what her wishes were and mom said she doesnt want any measure of life...dnr
    So now we just wait she has no response, her body is just there.

    My dad suffered the same thing and hew was in a coma for 7 years woke up and 3 days later suffered a massive heartattack and passed away.
    This is the only family my mom has left..her parents are both gone and now after talking to her at 8pm last night she might be gone also.

    Luckily when she was driving she did hit the back of phone company truck that has a lady in the bucket working on phone lines,she wasnt hurt just really shook up..
