My dear friend, Pammy, lost her battle with liver disease today. She was taking care of her husband (who is in a wheelchair), her adult kids, her grandkids, and umpteen other people who needed anything. Before she got sick, she dreamed of moving to Ireland to get away from the Oh-Bamas! I don't think she even rested while in hospice care. May she rest now in the arms of her Savior. Please say a prayer for her soul and for her sweet husband, that he can endure the loss.

My son has been very troubled, as he believes, by the presence and attack of evil spirits. (I am not sure myself what is psychological and what is supernatural.) Next week he is seeing a priest who seems like a calm, rational, measured man, for a deliverance session. The priest does think that my son is afflicted by spirits. My son's anxiety level is higher and he feels like he has come under greater attack. I am asking on his behalf, that you pray for him for the next seven days, until he sees the priest. I also ask that...

Dear fellow FReepers, Please keep my mother and family in your prayers. She is only days or perhaps weeks away from you know what, after being diagnosed with cancer back in November. I know I have been a jerk to some of you the past few weeks please put that aside, forgive me and pray for either a miraculous healing, or that she not suffer any more soon. She is the one who introduced me to FR actually, and actually lurked since its inception. I doubt she will be able to see this thread, but I'd like to think it...

This may be a bad place or time, but I'll ask anyway. Tomorrow is a big deal for me. I'm not quite back up to 110 pounds yet, but I'll go with what I've got. Tomorrow (Friday) I have a follow up appointment with the MD that did my 15 radiation treatments. Those treatments only treated my brain cancer, and did nothing for the other cancers we know I have. If everything goes right tomorrow, I'll begin my HEME/ONC treatment for the lung cancers and other stuff that I have. I've been made to understand that this is even rougher...

Please pray for my Mom. She was just admitted to the hospital with a heart rate of 33 bpm, and she is having trouble breathing. I really hope this is not the end. I want to see her home again.

Request prayers for my parents who had a freak accident at their home.

My wife's ultrasound found an "abnormal thickening"; she'll be having a biopsy. Please pray with me that it's nothing serious.

Please join me to prayer for the life of my son's marriage. His wife is mentally ill and it is very difficult for him to function day to day with her irrational outbursts. They have three children so our family is praying for him to have the strength to under these tests of his faith and his devotion to his wife regardless of how sick she has become.

What a day! And a night to follow. Wifey busted right ankle up real good, tripped and ended up with multiple broken bones and a dislocated ankle to boot. Surgery is on for tonight 9ishPT or so. Say one for our nation too. Thanks!

My dear wife of 30 years has been battling malignant melenoma for two years and has recemtly suffered a stroke because of bleeding in thr brain from 2 lesions. We are both in our early fifties. My grief knows no bounds. We are believers in Jesus and what the Bible teaches. We need your prayers and God's help and healing. If its time for her to go home I have no concept of living without her and how to function. Im overcome.

Who knows where this stuff have been moved to since the last inventory(8 month ago).

Please pray for my son. He is suffering terribly from bipolar disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder, in a state of torment and fear. He is a deeply religious young man, and he believes he is possessed in some way - which I do not see in him at all. Yet he may be under attack from the outside. Please pray for his deliverance from the ills of mind and spirit, from protection against any evil spirits that might assail him. Pray that his psychiatrist and his priests may be guided to help him. We are in no danger from him -...

We have been caring for my father at home since December. Last week we began hospice care and after a very bad turn on Tuesday, he's likely only days from death. I'd be grateful for prayers for his soul and for comfort for my mother, his wife of 56 years, who is in so much pain. Thank you.

I've been discharged from Rehab and am now home. "Going slow, but still going." Thank you all for about a million prayers. What follows is my recollection --- or reflection --- or maybe raving --- about one thing I experienced while in critical condition. ------------------------------Raving----------------------------------- “Reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated.” Mark Twain Hello, friends, this will have been your first and probably your last communication from me until Christ our God grants a better body/brain recovery. But I wanted to write what I can before it all disappears down the Memory Hole. Collapsed on Jan 19, septic...

Some of you may remember my grandson Bryson was born last October 8th, a month premature with Downs' Sundrome and a heart and bowel condition ....

From Johnny earlier today: "Time to fess up. Turns out I have brain cancer that moved there from my lungs. Prognosis is poor. I had brain surgery a couple of weeks ago. Of course, being me, I intend to fight hard to the very end, and beat the odds. I may well be around for harvest season this year. That is my intent. Normal prognosis is in weeks. I've held off on bringing this up on FR for several reasons. But the time to bring it up is now. Consider this my opus. It's as close as I'm going to...

“Reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated.” Mark Twain Hello, Freepalicious friends, this will have been your first and probably your last communication from me until Christ our God grants a better body/brain recovery. But I wanted to write what I can before it all disappears down the Memory Hole. Collapsed on Jan 19, septic shock from UTI. EMT's say BP fell to something like 40. Dead. Cardiac arrest. And again. And again. Dead, dead, dead. No bright tunnel of light, no golden escalator with old Fleetwood Mac mix tapes, no exclusive book and movie rights. I even forgot...

Mrs. STC is having a "revision" or possible total replacement to a 15-yr-old hip replacement today. The hip had started popping out recently resulting in 2 trips to the ER to get it back in, so the time had come. Mrs. STC has 3 rare bleeding disorders and almost expired during the original hip replacement, so she and her surgeon have put this operation off as long as possible. Mrs. STC is a retired RN and does a shift 2 hours a day, 5 days a week feeding Alzheimer's patients at the local nursing home, so when I left her...
