Prayer Request Thread.

I'm changin my post now since my papaw is home and feeling better now. This thread is for anyone to use and post their own requests. Lux took my post from another thread and made this a separate thread just for that reason. Please do not hesitate to make requests cause you might be surprised at the support you will get from the loungers!!




Here is my original request...
Sorry I know this is off-topic but there seem to be some religious people in here right now.

Please say a prayer for my grandfather cause my mom just called and said he just called her and she is taking him to the emergency room. He is having pains (chest, I believe). It scares me cause he had a heart attack last summer and then a 5 bypass surgery. So now I'm heading to meet them at the hospital. Thanks!

I heart my Papaw!

Skinny (but fattening up) and happy!

They went home a week after birth and this last Wednesday went from every other day weigh-ins to weekly ones! The boy is nearly 5 lbs and his sister is a bit bigger than that. My mom is going to murder my BIL, and the feeling is mutual. Coverlaugh She's there until the 22nd. This is going to get interesting....

Sister has been released to take the kids out for walks, but they can't go into crowds just yet. She's still nursing/pumping (AMAZING!!) and the babies love the boob juice for sure!

Ut oh, BIL not helping out much?

I'm glad to hear they're doing much better. They did incredibly well for preemies. I hope they continue to grow.

BIL should be been a 1950s dad. He just doesn't get it... a single diaper change does not win you Dad of the Year in my mom's book. Coverlaugh

Yeah, it is for the family. But, I have a hard time not being pissed off at my cousin for doing something so stupid. He was 29 and had children; time to grow up. I would like to know who he got the morphine from.

Please keep my friend's son in your prayers (he's 12.) He had emergency surgery for a perforated appendix. Poor little guy was in so much pain when I just left the hospital (he had just gotten up to the peds floor.)

Quote from Neo42 :
My brother and sister-in-law have been informed that their new baby girl (my niece) is showing signs of SMA Type 1 [wikipedia.org]. Confirmation pending, things don't look so good. Your silent support is appreciated. If anyone that skims over this has personally dealt with SMA or similar affliction, PMs with any resource/advise/info are welcomed.
Kind of forgot about this and was thinking about things and browsing the lounge for whatever reason. Sadly my niece has since left us (in January). Please everyone pray for your kids (who have them) and be thankful for their health! Also, pray for cheap in vitro so there is hope my brother can some day have a child without taking a gamble. I know that some religious sects frown upon the method used (throw out 'afflicted' fertilized eggs in favor of normal ones) but I don't think any benevolent lord would frown upon two people wanting to bring a child into the world without taking the risk of giving them a terrible/very short life.

Rayzac, I hope your friend is doing ok and they're able to remove the cancer successfully.

Please keep my family in your prayers. My cousin (he was only 29 years old) passed away suddenly and unexpectedly about 4 hours ago. He was found dead this morning at 6am Please also pray for his children that will now face life without their father.

Today is my cousin's funeral. If you would, could you please keep everyone in your thoughts and prayers as they say their final good-byes.

Also, if you feel like it, throw in an extra prayer for me and my anxiety, as this will be the first time I see my biological father in 5+ years. I haven't seen (nor spoken) with him since we had a disagreement over my pregnancy.
