A special prayer request
Posted: Dec 31, 2011
I am silently saying a prayer that God takes my friend to a better place. I feel guility saying that, but she has been ill since July. She went to the ER with a scratch on her leg, and never got home. She is an insulin dependent diabetic since childhood (age 5), who is now a patient in a nursing home. She went rapidly downhill in the summer when she had a CABG procedure. She, after five months, is still vent dependent via trach. She cannot walk due to blisters on her feet. She has deep decubitus ulcers from being in bed. They made her special boots, but they are not helping the ulcers. She has lost her hearing and now wears a hearing aid. Recently she developed vaginal bleeding. She is 63 years of age. Could you please pray for her, and for me at this time. I am having a terrible time dealing with what has happened to her, and I can think of nothing else. I am just torn apart knowing she is suffering with no signs of improvement. My friend's name is Fran. Thanks to all of you.

I am praying that she is being kept comfortable!!!! - nm

I understand, but you should not feel guilty! - sm
[ In Reply To ..]I prayed the same thing for my dad when he was diagnosed with cancer 15 years ago. I prayed for God to take him soon so he would not have to suffer. Your prayer request is absolutely selfless!! Bless you! And praying for your friend, too:)

[ In Reply To ..]I am so sorry to hear this and I am praying that your friend will not have to suffer. God Bless you and may He give you strength during this difficult time with your friend.

I would like for people on this board to pray with me concerning my job. I am a "Nana" to 6 grandchildren who have no support from their fathers, so I really have a high budget. However, my job is to say in the least horrible. It is straight typing and in my 14 years of experience as a transcriptionist I have never had trouble making my line counts except with this company. It seems there are 10,000 different dictators. I am not making enough to even meet my budget and need a job so bad. ...

Two years ago, February 28/March 1 at 4:01 a.m. my life took a major dive. I was awakened to my neighbor pounding on my door, yelling "FIRE!" My fiance and I had minutes to get out of the building. We lost all our possessions. I can't tell you how hard it was to watch everything you own go up. I lost family menento's that can never be replaced. The neighbor who started the fire laughs about it to this day stating, "I lost my pot and my bongs."& ...

My phone was shut off this morning. The internet and TV will be gone in a few hours because, for some reason, they stagger termination of services. Obviously, I cannot work without the internet, and I don't have the money to pay the bill. I'm in the same boat as so many of you. I just want to pay my bills. Thanks for praying. ...

Prayer Request For New Job And LifeMar 01, 2011
I had taken a medical transcription course and graduated with a certificate of honors 2 years ago. I never found a job in the field despite all of the hard work and effordt I put into it. I ended up getting a PRN job in the medical field doing something different: performing hearing screens on newborn babies at the hospital. I found a job as an audiology tech at a bigger hospital and I would be doing this full time! I was selected for the position (yay!) and have to pass all of these tests to st ...

Hello, I am having some health issues with my gallbladder, or so it seems. I don't have health insurance as it is not offered through my job. I can't afford to have anything done. It's really depressing to know you work for everything you have and it can be taken away from high hospital bills. I am currently taking a medical coding class. I find my stressed, tired all the time, depressed, and not to mention the "horrible" gallbladder attacks. I have changed my diet, but feel I am ...

Is it possible for women to please sit down on the toilet seat in a public restroom??? I am quite sick and tired of sitting down on a wet seat because some woman decided it's "sanitary" to squat and pee instead of sitting and peeing. Now I have to wipe my buttocks because they are soaking wet, besides wiping myself. To boot, I have now also walked where someone else's pee has squirted (and so have you, HELLO!) Sorry if I sound repetetive, but if we ALL just sat on the dang seat, th ...

I've tried to search online for the percentage of Americans receiving SS disability, the reasons for disability, etc. Does anyone have a good site for this? I'm also interested in children under the age of 18 receiving supplemental income payments for "disability". I ask in part because I am of the firm belief that a great many of us are working while other abled persons drawing these type payments are not. I also quite frankly do not understand how a child, wh ...

Seems like the board is filled with thread after thread of posters acusing others of being other people. I think I remember a message you posted quite awhile ago about something regarding people should not assume posters are the same people (or something like that). I'm tired of reading all the posts saying I am Sam, then Sam and tstone are the same, Backwards Typist and Sam and tstone and me are the same, etc, etc. Sometimes it can be amusing, but mostly just an irritant. ...

A Question Heard On The Radio RE: A Child's Gift RequestDec 09, 2011
The radio station I listen to has a weekly "therapy" session where someone writes in with a problem. It is all in fun, but sometimes thought provoking, such as this week's question: Parents asked Son (age not given) to write his gift requests on paper. He only wanted an XBox. Of course, the most expensive model. Parents told Son they could not afford that, so he returned a blank sheet of paper to them and said if they did not get him that, he wanted nothing. Father thinks they should gr ...

76% Of Americans Want A Special Prosecutor (sm)May 30, 2013
While President Obama's Attorney General, Eric Holder, faces a possible perjury charge and increased calls for his resignation over the Justice Department's outrageous spying on the media -- elsewhere, another scandal is taking another kind of toll. A new Quinnpiac poll shows that the public is far from satisfied that the IRS matter is settled. A full 76% want a special prosecutor named; that includes 63% of Democrats. Well, Obama did promise to bring us together. Let's just hope ...
