Please pray for my mother. The doctors are really interested in the state of her lungs and are trying to work out why they don't work properly. Meanwhile, she cannot walk across the street without getting out of breath and is going stir-crazy in her flat. ![[Waterworks]](graemlins/bawling.gif)

Thank you for your continued prayers. We appreciate it so much. The challenge now is to control the pressure in R's damaged eye. We are on a real emotional roller-coaster. Tomorrow he is having an eye test to see if any kind of glasses would help him. A historian who can't read - it's so hard for him.

Praying for all the sick, especially - as a regular at the Eye Hospital myself - for Diomedes and R.
Also for R, who has bilateral lung cancer, and all her family, that she makes it through to her daughter's wedding next month, and that the happy times provide some comfort in the difficult times ahead.
For Mrs H who has been poorly lately and her son J who is looking after her without a break.
For my aunty, caring for her husband K as his Alzheimer's progresses.
For J, who died of cancer earlier this week, and his wife, children and grandchildren who are mourning.
For everyone who mourns, that they may be comforted.
For my dad, that he may rest in peace.
Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof. But only say the word and your servant shall be healed.

For Piglet’s H., for healing. For J. to be comforted in her loss.
For a great new place for Nicolemr.
And everything Nenya said!
For healing for Abigail’s manager’s husband.
For healing for Caissa’s supervisor’s wife.
For WatersOfBabylon, for healing. For upholding for mousethief and Josephine.
For cousin I, for healing. He is much more responsive, but can’t speak or communicate other than thumbs up or down, and has been tearful today.
For the Thing application.
I’ve had a lousy couple of days. Please, for me to get on top of all this.
For the Telemum.

I'd value your prayers as I deal with a neighbour this weekend.... the last straw has been work today to get his cable phone installed which resulted in mine being disconnected (without my permission), but I'm also facing a battle with him over the way the guttering & downpipes remove rainwater from our joined roofs, plus fixing a leaking roof which he (a builder) put on. I feel he is laughing or sneering at me and ignoring what are real problems, and I'm getting stressed about how all these are resolved.

I have been asked by a friend to pray for her brother, so I thought I'd open it to the wider community...
She writes: He had chest pains, went to the doctor, and after lots of tests he is having open-heart surgery/bi-pass surgery to repair significant blockages. There are five of us and this is the first serious health problem that we've encountered, so we are all praying hard and feeling bad for our brother
Please pray for the Family Pompom, and especially Brother Pompom.
Thank you.

My partner is in hospital tonight after a very long day of doctors trying to stop an uncontrollable bleed. She had sinus surgery last week, but is also on anticoagulants. She woke me this morning at 4.30 with blood all over her face. The day has ranged from scary to terrifying for both of us. I had to leave her drugged up to the eyes.
Please let it be a better day tomorrow. And please make it unnecessary for her to come off her anticoagulant - the word stroke was mentioned.
