MetMom Serious Prayer Need--EATING threatened [Update @560]
Curious space between Quix's ears & consulatations w MetMom | 18 AUG 2010 | Quix

Posted on 08/21/2010 9:18:48 PM PDT by Quix

Metmom has had allergies and food allergies her entire life. In the last few years they have gotten steadily and progressively worse. Foods have been dropping out of her diet until she reached the point she is at now and can only eat rice, chicken, lamb, and venison. Anything else causes her to react rather destructively, debilitatingly.

The problem is that the repeated continual exposure to the few remaining foods, could lead to a sensitivity to those as well, which has just happened to two foods she had been safely eating since October.

There are options for nutrition should she start to react to all foods, but they are used only in the most dire situations. She's concerned about reaching that point--and frankly has been feeling more than a little discouraged by all such.

She has undergone extensive medical testing which has all been inconclusive. Almost everything comes back normal or negative, and the few things that she does test positive for aren’t what causes her the most problems.

She is attempting to get into a regional medical center for more specialized medical evaluation to see if they can determine the cause and possible treatment, if any exists.

She has been prayed for and anointed numerous times over the years, however, she would appreciated continued prayer for complete healing.

PLEASE UNDERSTAND HER PLIGHT with as much empathy as you can. She's been through a 1,001 suggestions and tried a LOT of different things. She's been through the Henry Wright seminar and prayers extensively. I don't think she is quite up to handling any more suggestions currently. Those who've been through such can understand such a feeling. She just greatly would appreciate your understanding and PARTICULARLY YOUR CARING PRAYERS.

This summary is per my understanding and might be stated somewhat differently were she writing it herself. I believe she'd affirm the truth of what I've said but these are essentially my words.

THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR PRAYERS.

Have you asked St. Anthony to help you find the lost things?

Prayers for you and your family. This has to be frustrating beyond the pale. Prayers for the doctors as they look into what can be done to help.

We got to Boston and back today. What a long day......

It’s a Catch 22. According to the doctor, it looks like I do have mastocytosis. It’s not good to have, OTOH, it is a diagnosis. It can be treated some.

http://www.tmsforacure.org/

He wants to run a couple more tests to confirm the diagnosis, one of which NYS does not permit because it considers it not reliable, although the dr. disagrees. Thank you NYS, for protecting us from ourselves.....>:(

So we need to figure out some way of getting the test done without going to Boston again. Please pray that God would lead in that area.

The trip went swimmingly. We have no trouble with the traveling, or finding the place, or anything.

I have an appointment to go back in Dec, which could be tough weather wise.

Time to crash and burn.

Thanks so much for the prayers.

For you >:0)

Psalm 34

Praise for Deliverance from Trouble

1 I will bless the Lord at all times;
his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2 My soul makes its boast in the Lord;
let the humble hear and be glad.
3 O magnify the Lord with me,
and let us exalt his name together.

4 I sought the Lord, and he answered me,
and delivered me from all my fears.
5 Look to him, and be radiant;
so your* faces shall never be ashamed.
6 This poor soul cried, and was heard by the Lord,
and was saved from every trouble.
7 The angel of the Lord encamps
around those who fear him, and delivers them.
8 O taste and see that the Lord is good;
happy are those who take refuge in him.
9 O fear the Lord, you his holy ones,
for those who fear him have no want.
10 The young lions suffer want and hunger,
but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.

11 Come, O children, listen to me;
I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
12 Which of you desires life,
and covets many days to enjoy good?
13 Keep your tongue from evil,
and your lips from speaking deceit.
14 Depart from evil, and do good;
seek peace, and pursue it.

15 The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
and his ears are open to their cry.
16 The face of the Lord is against evildoers,
to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
17 When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears,
and rescues them from all their troubles.
18 The Lord is near to the broken-hearted,
and saves the crushed in spirit.

19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous,
but the Lord rescues them from them all.
20 He keeps all their bones;
not one of them will be broken.
21 Evil brings death to the wicked,
and those who hate the righteous will be condemned.
22 The Lord redeems the life of his servants;
none of those who take refuge in him will be condemned.

I'm glad to hear you have a diagnosis, finally. It will be a tough road, but losing the uncertainty is bound to help.

Prayers continue...

It's great to have a diagnosis ~ makes it much less mysterious.

Now, for a good laugh. I went searching for information about this condition on the web and did some of my standard cross correlative searches to see if there was anything else I'd already studied.

Came up with this:

"A short-mast cell site on top of a mountain in Wyoming, USA ... Cell phone traffic through a single cell mast is limited by the mast's capacity;...."

A lesson, be careful how you enter your search factors into Google.com or any other search engine because in this day and age there are a gazillion "short-mast cell site"s!

Northern NJ, CT?

Thanks for the update.

A minister I know says, there are two reports - one from the doctor/tests on what is seen in the natural; the other report is from Jesus on what's in the supernatural, 'By My stripes, you were healed'.

Metmom! My friend, who is 100 yrs and 3 months has a saying “Kid, It’s a great life if you don’t weaken”.

Hold to God as a father of hopeful expectations and his promise of deliverance.

Be strong and believe God will deliver you from this even if it’ only an improvement, you will still have your spirit and soul which are always whole.

Peace

Well, that’s not great news, but I can tell you it’s always better to have an accurate diagnosis. It sets you up so doctors take your problems a little more seriously, and there is always a chance a good treatment protocol will come along.

It’s certainly better than, I seem to be allergic to everything and nobody knows why. God bless. I’ll keep praying for you.
