Once again I am requesting prayers from my blogging friends. My father is not doing very well. Since getting home from the hospital he has had one infection after another. He also has diabetic neuropathy which is affecting his entire body. He has lost 15 pounds in the past few weeks and is very discouraged and depressed. He was deeply touched by all the people who prayed for him a few weeks ago and asked if you could pray for him again. I think he's worried that he is dying.
Could you also pray for a family friend (Kevin) who is in critical condition in the hospital? He sustained internal injuries after a motorcycle accident and may not make it.
Thank you so much! I truly believe in the power of prayer. Though the results might not always be what we want, God always answers them in whatever way is best for those we are interceding for.
I will keep your dad and Kevin in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteThank you Mary for sharing. Both your father and Kevin are being lifted up in prayer. Blessings. Yes there is power in prayer!
ReplyDeleteMary,
ReplyDeleteI will keep your Dad, you and your family in my prayers as well as Kevin that he may recover from his injuries.
DG, JBR, and Karin,
ReplyDeleteI deeply appreciate your prayers and so does my dad! Kevin is in a medically induced coma and was operated on (again) today. I hope to hear more about his condition tomorrow.
Prayers coming.
ReplyDeleteI will offer my rosary up tonight for your father and your friend. God Bless Mary....:-)Hugs
ReplyDeleteDear Mary,
ReplyDeleteI am praying as you requested, as well as for you and your whole family.
God bless you and yours always.
Wow! I can't imagine going through a motorcycle accident and then surgeries. It sounds so painful! How old is your dad, Mary? He's blessed to have you nearby. Of course I will be praying for you and for those you care about who are suffering right now.
ReplyDeleteBear, Bernie, Victor, and Anne,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your prayers. I just got back from visiting my father and it lifted his spirits to know that people were praying for him! He sends his thanks to all of you and told me to make sure I tell you all how much he appreciates it. He was a bit improved today and even ate a decent supper last night (we were concerned at how little he was eating). Anne, he is 74 but has a lot of medical issues. I haven't got an update about Kevin yet but hope to hear more this afternoon. He has two children so I hope he pulls through.
I will be happy to keep them in my prayers. And may you, your family, and Kevin's family all be comforted with the Lord's peace during this time.

Thank you, Evan!
ReplyDeleteCame back by to read the updates and to give you (((((Mary))))) a hug. Blessings.
ReplyDeleteJust read this Mary! I will definately be praying for both Kevin and your dad during the night and this evening. I will pray especially for your dad to know the peace that only Christ can give, that is not of the world.
ReplyDeletePraying!!!
ReplyDeleteJBR, Shadowlands, Colleen, and Sarah,
ReplyDeleteYou have no idea how thankful I am for all your prayers! Please know that I keep you in mine, too.
My dad is a little bit better but Kevin is not doing very well. I hope he pulls through but he has internal injuries and many broken bones. All things are possible with God, though!
I will offer a Divine Mercy for them both, God bless you all
ReplyDeleteMary, sorry I'm late visiting here, but I, too, will pray for your dad and Kevin. May God's will be done.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Pip and Barb!
ReplyDeleteMary,
ReplyDeleteJust to let you know I've not stopped praying. I hope this gives you a little comfort.
God bless.
Mary, sorry I saw this so late! Praying for your dad and Kevin.
