I was hoping I could get some prayer assistance please. It's not for me, my 2009 has been horrible but I can take it; I'm hoping to get your prayers for my uncle. See, he's a special needs guy and my mom has been caring for him since their parents death a few years ago. Well he went to the hospital today because he's been vomitting blood amongst other things.

That's what they ought to pray. So that we can ... get the middle of America and the middle of the Senate a bill that can run through this country and actually do what we say we all want to do." Although no particular individual was named, it was an attempt to express disapproval for the overwhelmingly Democrat-supported H.R. 3590 Health Care Bill our Government wants to push through Congress before Christmas....

Replacing it is a feeling of intense partisanship, which the Washington Post's Ezra Klein calls "heartlessly ferocious." A particularly heated exchange took place last night. As senators prepared for a major vote on health reform, Republican Sen. Tom Coburn of Oklahoma called on Americans to pray that a Democratic colleague would be unable to make it to the floor so that the bill could not reach the needed 60-vote threshold. Coburn, a member of Washington's controversial...

She only has one kidney (having lost the other to cancer in 1965 when she was in her 20s), she seems not to be responding to the antibiotics (she's allergic to most antibiotics anyway), and now she's severely short of breath.

Turns out she had E. coli poisoning, which led to kidney failure, dialysis, and they're still trying to knock out the infection in her blood. I'm praying that she pulls through this. She's been moved to ICU, where she's getting better care. Her blood pressure is still low, and she's on O2. Please, friends, I ask that you lift her up in prayer for her healing.
