  • Re: A Thread for prayers, good vibes and what have you

    My dad was in a wreck this afternoon. So far what I understand is that his blood sugar was way high (500+) and he lost control of his truck as he entered our addition back home. He narrowly missed a parked car and apparently may have also been close to some people and ended up hitting a tree hard. He dosent even remember anything leading up to the accident. Thankfully he was not hurt other than some abrasions and bruises and he is in pain. Also thankfully he did not hit anyone else. Hopefully this will be a wakeup call for him and he will be more careful about his diet and keeping his blood sugar in check.

      Yikes! Not sure who needs prayers more- him or the family! Prayers for you all.

        My wife and I got a foster placement last week, with a very young one. Lots of challenges, opportunities, and joys. And a varying amount of sleep!

            Thanks. No way of knowing how long. It's a long and complex process and the system and courts are overloaded, so we just will take it day by day.

            Prayers appreciated of course.

                Knowing my dad and I have fallen on hard times, and knowing that our financial situation is beyond repair, I'm not praying for a bailout, because that would be spiritually irresponsible. Rather, I'm praying, and asking for prayers that both of us find serenity in this situation and that we have the strength to fight back. The way I see it, my dad and I can lay down and take a beating, or we can rise out of our current misery and better our situation. "Remember the Lord, who is great and awesome, and fight..."

                      This is most certainly true.

                        The 4 year old son of my friends Josh and Yvonne is currently fighting Leukodystrophy at Mayo in Rochester, MN. Josh's last two status updates.
                        Alexander's Disease has entered the grey area for Nicholas. The place where nobody knows anything.
                        It's between Nick and The Lord today.
                        The little guy could use all the prayers and good vibes he can get right now...

                              At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."
