Please pray for the S that I've asked for prayers for here before. I think his wife has finally thrown him out of their home, and I don't have the faintest idea where he could go except the street.

eta: the 15 year olds locally start their big test today with the exams that conclude their high school career - these exams determine their possibilities for going on to the next stage of their education.

My brother-in-law Peter was knocked off his bike by a truck and went over a cliff this morning. He is in a critical condition in hospital with lots of broken bones, including in his neck, collapsed lungs, and other injuries. Fortunately someone saw it happen and rang for an ambulance - not a certainty since they live in a rather isolated area. He was airlifted out and was in hospital before his wife knew.
For him and Rosie's sister Jan.

I’m thankful to report that the Telemum was indeed fine, if a little the worse for wear, by the following morning.
For healing for daisymay.
For Mad Cat’s V and S to get that job; for A’s way to be smoothed and her line manager more supportive; and for healing, hope and happiness for C and for Mad Cat, and for protection. Lord, let Your saving power be known.
For Lothlorien.
For healing for Themselves. For all 15-year-olds local to WW to ace that big test.
For Nicolemr’s S to be safe.
For healing for Arabella’s Peter and the medical team treating him, and for Rosie’s sister Jan.
I really really really need funding, and so does P, and so does C.
I’ve not quite chased off the Finance Monster but I’m hoping to have done so by the end of the month… obviously it would help if I could keep him away…
But as for my other Lenten promise, you can not get me out of bed in the morning for love nor money. I have absolutely no moral fibre when I’m semiconscious (or at any other time, but you know what I mean). It’s awful that I can’t even manage this when I made a promise before God.

Had a horrible shock last night. My brother died suddenly yesterday morning. His wife went out to feed the chickens then when she came back in, K had collapsed on the kitchen floor. She tried CPR as did the paramedics, but to no avail. It looks like a massive heart attack and there were no signs of distress, but there will have to be a post-mortem.
He was 73 and while he had Parkinson's all that had done was to make him frustrated at not being able to do electrical work. Can you offer a prayer for K, his widow R (who lost her father only eighteen months ago) their daughters M & H, his grandson R and the girls partners M & D.
The worst aspect I can think of is that his grandchildren will never know him (two more are on the way). He was a lovely man, and we'll all miss him terribly.
eta: especially for APW's Peter. [ 10. March 2016, 12:00: Message edited by: Sioni Sais ]

Mr. Lamb's brother An is dying and my husband is going to California tonight to be with him. Please pray for everybody involved. I've got to stay here (son is being confirmed) and we're also juggling the future medical care of about 50-60 people over the next 24 hours. Never rains but it pours.
-------------------- Er, this is what I've been up to (book). Oh, that you would rend the heavens and come down!

for Sioni, Lamb Chopped and their families, for strength and as much healing as is possible.
for Zooey's court case.
And to add to the rain, please could you pray for my friend's grandfather H, who has been hospitalised with numerous conditions which now include MRSA and has been mostly unconscious for the last two weeks. Many thanks.

Praying. There's nothing like needing prayer for making one pray for others, especially when there's a similarity.

I have found out that my S was not kicked out by his wife, however he is in the hospital in very poor shape. He may have had a stroke, they aren't sure, and he's been diagnosed with COPD. That's on top of the damaged liver and alcoholic dementia. Please pray for him and his wife B.
