MorningStar Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 Please bring any prayer requests you have here. Right now I'd like to ask everyone to pray for my friend Jessica. I shared this story on MADB and now my friend has even more to deal with. At 34 weeks pregnant, she found out her mom had metastatic bone cancer (which they discovered when her mom's pain got so bad, she had to start using a walker). They did surgery to stabilize the bone and remove the huge tumor in her leg, which led to blood clots (including one in her lung), more surgery, continuing severe pain from the clots and hospitalizations, etc. Anyway, to make this story shorter, at 41 weeks pregnant, she was told her mom had maybe three days to live, so she asked for a c-section the next day, and her new baby got to meet her grandma. Two weeks later she passed away. Now Jessica just had a mole removed from her breast and it's not cancerous, but the cells are abnormal and they will have to do surgery to remove the surrounding tissue. This is not the kind of thing a breastfeeding woman needs. I was so hoping she would have a vacation from her trials for now, besides missing her mom terribly. Anyone else need any prayers?

I have started including these forums and the people here in my prayers as G-d knows you all better than me, but my heart has grown three sizes since I found these LDS sites and my new "friends". :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selek Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 My once and future bride has been ill off and on for several years, and the doctor's have never been able to pinpoint a cause. Mostly weakness, mysterious aches and pains, and stomach problems. Now she has several small, painful sores popping up and she's afraid it might be Ciliac's Disease- essentially a hyper-allergy to glutin (anything with wheat in it). Prayers would be appreciated, both for her health and for a straight answer at last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havejoy Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Prayers are needed for my young fried, Lisa. She's been married for about 14 years and her husband committed suicide this weekend. I already had her name in the Houston Temple but more prayers can't hurt. Thanks. Also praying for the people above me in this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen a lot of tragedies in my life and suicide is the worst. It's painful enough to lose someone you love, but to think that you could've done something to prevent it is unbearable.

It's painful enough to lose someone you love, but to think that you could've done something to prevent it is unbearable.I just wanted to offer a quick thanks to those who prayed for me and mine.The test results are back and it's not Ciliacs nor any immune system (or other life threatening) disease.She's apparently suffering from URS (Unexplained Red Spots) and the doctors are still scratching their heads.Better that than something life altering or deadly.I will keep Lisa in my prayers, as well.

havejoy Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 Thanks to all who are praying for Lisa. Selek, are the docs pulling a fast one or is URS a for-real dx? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pegtagatha Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 I've been having severe gastointestinal problems, and wicked back pain. I went to the ER for my gastointestinal problems, and they did test on me, but nothing showed up. I'll see my primary doctor Friday. The gastointestinal problems feel scary. I'll have to depend on God to help me though, so please pray for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selek Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 Thanks to all who are praying for Lisa. Selek, are the docs pulling a fast one or is URS a for-real dx?Nah.....they don't know much of anything.They did biopsies of the spots, gave her a hormonal creme (yeah- just what a premenopausal woman needs- more hormones ) and don't really have an answer for us. She goes back on Thursday. Hence URS, also known as TDDHAC (The Doctors Don't Have A Clue) syndrome.I'll keep Lisa in my prayers, and can-do Peg.

MorningStar Posted October 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 Please pray for my friend Crystal. She has a staph infection and she's pretty nervous about it because she tends to be resistent to antibiotics. She is already on them and a couple days after she started taking them, the sore got even more swollen. Another friend of mine had one - it started with a tiny cut on her knee from shaving, it got terribly swollen, and then she developed blood clots in her leg.

SMG Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 Could you please pray for my professor? She is undergoing a masectomy on the 31st. She's been diagnosed with breast cancer and I'm very worried about her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorningStar Posted November 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 Could you please pray for my professor? She is undergoing a masectomy on the 31st. She's been diagnosed with breast cancer and I'm very worried about her. Did it happen already? I will still pray for her. I'm sure she's still healing.I could really use some prayers right now. I'm in terrible pain and have hardly slept for the past two nights. I called the doctor's office this morning and my doctor wasn't in. I waited and waited and no one called me back, so I used their emergency service and the doctor called in another prescription, but it's not helping either. I want to go to the temple tomorrow with my friend. I think if I can make it there, it will help me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorningStar Posted November 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 My friend Deborah was diagnosed with breast cancer this weekend. It has spread to her lymph nodes and that's all I know. Please pray for her and for Troy in our ward who was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer a month ago.

Guest Zooba Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Hi.. I am not sure where to turn. I was raised Catholic, but don't really "do" religion anymore. (LONG story.) But I do believe in the power of prayer, even if I can't pray. My best friend lives in Utah and is Mormon, so I've been to church with her and know that for the most part, LDS folks are friendly folks. My husband has been unemployed for going on two years now. He got his college degree in December of 2005 at age 48, because he has chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia (since 6/1994) and could no longer do laborer/handyman work. He had a job right out of college with a HORRIBLE boss, and now can't get a job anywhere. He is beoming increasingly despondent and has threatened to leave our marriage of almost 25 years several times in the past few months. He refuses to seek individual counseling. We are already in marriage counseling. There are other stressors as well (aren't there always?) but he really needs a rewarding job with a decent boss. He needs to pull his weight, I NEED for him to contribute to the household expenses, to the children's needs and to our retirement (so we can retire before we're both 93), and most importantly, he needs to feel worthwhile as a person again. Please pray for him. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gregtl1967 Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Greetings: I found your website and church on the Internet. I reside in the Houston TX area. Obviously I am not a member of your church but I am too embarrassed to ask the local churches to announce my prayer request. I am not LDS, but married an LDS woman. I am a christian, My wife has given me notice she is leaving me. I fear that I cant convince her to stay. It is 100% my fault. I did not appreciate her, and show her respect. I was verbally abusive. God has opened my eyes to my errors, and I just want her to have the impulse to give me one more chance. I will never be verbally abusive again. I will honor and cherish her. Please Pray for me!

David O'Photo Posted June 15, 2014 Report Share Posted June 15, 2014 My wife left me today and is throwing me out of the house in two days. I have no one hear to talk to, no money and nowhere to go. Please pray for us. David and Renee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
