I would like to request prayers for my wife.

This afternoon we are to the hospital for some doctor order test, a sonogram of her gall bladder and her carotid arteries. My prayer is that both are negative as we have yet to find out why she was dangerously anemic. She had to receive 2 units of blood. So my brothers and sisters your prayers will be most appreciated.

And thanks to our host elect hrmjustin for letting me know this group even existed. I will keep all of you in my prayers as well as the whole DU community.

My mother went through carotid artery surgery on both sides. If she needs surgery don't get too worried because it is very common surgery.

Dear Lord of Mercy and Father of Comfort,
You are the One we turn to for help in moments of weakness and times of need. We ask you to be with your servant in this illness.

In Jesus name I pray.



And thank you for the post about people of faith on DU. Many here don't like us at all.

Thanks for the prayer. Maybe tomorrow we will get the results. They did ultrasound of her abdomen and carotid arteries.

Mother of all Creation, Your love for your.children lives in all of us. Let that love guide your daughter's physicians in her healing. Restore her and her family to health and wholeness. Let them walk in Beauty all their days.

For all our relations, let it be so.

How good to sing praise to our God;
how pleasant to give fitting praise.

The LORD rebuilds Jerusalem,
and gathers the dispersed of Israel,

Healing the brokenhearted,
and binding up their wounds.

He numbers the stars,
and gives to all of them their names.

Great is our Lord, vast in power,
with wisdom beyond measure.

The LORD gives aid to the poor,
but casts the wicked to the ground.

We haven't got the results of the two sonograms yet, maybe today. With the holidays I'm sure there are some delays. Also it might be a good sign that they didn't tell us really bad news. I will let all here know as soon as we know. She has an appointment with her GP on the 7th.

I hope her doc sets up the upper and lower GI test to see if she is bleeding. Also we will get the results of the sonograms. Thanks Justin for your concern and prayers.

And she is feeling better every day, has more strength and endurance. Before and for a while after the transfusions she was confused a lot and short of breath. That is much better now.
