I hope you had a wonderful Father\u2019s Day. I am writing to ask for your prayers.<\/p>\n
My oldest daughter has been in the hospital since Friday. Both girls came down with pneumonia last week and now The eldest\u00a0has complications of a collapsed lung and\u00a0mucus plugs. It\u2019s been a challenge because the pneumonia itself is responding to meds and treatment. Her fever is gone and she looks great. However, her lung is still stuck shut with mucus that won\u2019t budge. They amped up the treatment yesterday. If things don\u2019t resolve, we\u2019ll be going to the hospital where she\u2019ll be scoped and they will get it out that way.<\/p>\n
My youngest is doing well \u00a0and trying to deal with Mom and sis not being home.<\/p>\n
Im hanging in\u00a0aside from fighting the thoughts that this is all my fault because of my horrible past that I am now being punished. Ridiculous right? \u00a0So I\u2019m writing to everyone I know to ask for prayers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Father, we ask that your name be glorified by healing this girl completely in body, soul, and spirit, and we ask that her caregivers by given grace, understanding, wisdom, skill, knowledge, and compassion to treat her.\u00a0 We ask you would give grace, peace, strength, faith, hope and love to all who love her.\u00a0 And remind my reader of yesterday\u2019s gospel and the woman whose sins were forgiven.\u00a0 Guardian angel, fight against the evil spirit that would lie to her about that mercy and forgiveness.\u00a0 Mother Mary and St. Luke, pray for all concerned.\u00a0 We ask this through Christ our Lord.\u00a0 Amen!<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
