Beloved FRiends, my dear husband is having a rectal bleeding event again. I am awaiting his gastroenterologist’s callback as to go ahead and bring him to hospital to be evaluated. It is best that his doctor send word to the ED to expect him, it will keep them from setting him aside in the waiting area instead of taking him straight back into triage / bed.

Just asking if you are moved, to pray for my uncle. Hes having some health downturns, and its probably not going to resolve in restored health. Its probably near the end of the line. Just prayers for uplifting him, for peace, for pain relief, for grace. Thanks.

They moved him to a ventilator: his oxygen seemed promising on the...

I know I'm not around often, but I am here to humbly ask you to pray for my Daughter, who is currently in ICU with pneumonia and MRSA. Last night the doctors said she was doing better, today they called for family, even though they won't let anyone into the unit over COVID concerns. Please pray for her recovery and healing.

As you may or may not know, I only really started taking care of the diabetes in 2017, though I was diagnosed in 2010. Even then, my control has been kinda bad. I sometimes see a blood sugar near 300, but I am getting better. Some of my neglect has caught up with me. Friday morning, I noticed I was seeing double when driving. I went to the doctor for a previous appointment, unrelated to this. I didn’t bother to mention this issue because it came and went, and I figured it was just eye strain or something. Well, it...

Just got back from the hospital,CT scan reveals I've got colon cancer and it's spread.I think I'm probably a dead man walking.
