Debbie did well during the testing(I admit to being a nervous nellie), although we were kinda in the basement due to the radioactive material used, now the wait for the results...

Thank you all for the prayers and thoughts...

james

A quick note, Debbie's cardiac stress tests came back normal, now going through pulmonary testing...our medical group was bought out and the new group let go our primary Doctor Krzysiak, affectionly know as Dr. K, we have no idea of his replacement, my prayers for a warm and caring man.

Still hoping and praying for a bit of light to brighten her life...

james

My prayers today, James, for you and Debbie.

Thank you MJ, you and Ron are in my daily prayers...

james

ps-I'm ready to put a sack cloth on and cover myself in ashes...

Prayers for Debbie's health and for James' health and well being... and a happy resolution to the medical group question.
CS

Lord of the Powers be with us, for in times of distress we have no other help but You.
Lord of the Powers, have mercy on James, Debbie, and this whole situation.
They are amazing people Lord, bless their coming in and their going out in all things. Thank you for their witness of faith to a hurting world.

We had a short meeting with the pulmonary Doc yesterday after a quick CT scan which revealed a slight indication of emphysema to go along with her other condition.

I think there is a short of some kind in my prayer route or the line is very busy...

james

May the Lord uphold our friend James and bring health and healing to Debbie! Prayers for both,
CS

O Virgin, help Debbie who is pressed by incurable ills and distressing passions, for we know that you, all-blameless one, are a perfect and abundant treasury of healing.

praying for Debbie,

Dear James,

My prayers are with you both. Please don't give up. I pray that God will grant you patience. Remember that God's time is not our time. Remember St. Job. If you can, try fasting for a week for Debbie. Fasting coupled with prayer is quite efficacious.

May the Blessed Mother of God grant you both consolation, and patience during this terrible trial. Know that she will not leave you alone if you call upon her...and that God is not forsaking you.

In Christ, our Hope,
Alice

Prayers for Debbie's health and for my beloved brother's frustration

Again, thank you all for the prayers and thoughts, Debbie and I do get frustrated at times with the illness and the HMO establishment, and we continue to pray and hope.

james

James,

Please be assured of my continuing prayers.

In ICXC,

Lord Have Mercy

Dear Friends,

In your charity, please say a prayer for my wife Debbie, she fell last night and today I had to call EMS to take her to the hospital, spent 6 hrs there and they found a fracture in the tail bone, she is home but in pain and very uncomfortable...

Thanking all,

james

Prayers! For Debbie, and for you, James!
CS

OUCH

That really hurts Poor Debbie

Personal experience - when sitting she should lean forward slightly .it takes some of the pressure off.

Prayers that it heals swiftly

prayers for you both

My prayer for you and Debbie--and for healing and assistance in this never ending trial, for comfort and for perseverence.

Through the intercessions of St. Nektarios,
Alice

The offspring of Selyvria
and the guardian of Aegina,
the true friend of virtue who appeared in the last days...
We faithful honour thee,
as a Godly servant of Christ
for thou pourest forth healings of all kinds
for those who piously cry out:
Glory to God who glorified thee
Glory to Him who made thee wondrous
Glory to Him who worketh healings for all through thee
Amen!

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God, have mercy on Debbie and James, heal them of every adversity and suffering, ease her present pain, and renew their strength in all things.

Amen to this prayer!

Un-happy update,

Debbie was in so much pain Saturday to Sunday morning I had her transported back to the hospital, further examination via ct scan revealed two fractures to the pelvic bone...our HMO deemed her not qualified to stay in the hospital more than a day and a half and moved her to a convalescent hospital/home against our protests.

All prayers accepted with much humility and gratitude...

james

Prayers....

Prayers again for Debbie - I do hope she is getting adequate pain relief

Short note; Debbie is still at the convalescent hospital/home and has had some therapy and she is sore. I find myself unhappy at home and unhappy when I leave her, guess 31 years of marriage forms a very tight bond...

the cats and dogs are unhappy too, though I don't know what the hermit crab thinks...

james

My prayers. Share some good meals too.

Oh James

Prayers that the therapy will help and she will soon be back home with you

Prayers for your emotional pain and for Debbie's emotional and physical pain...

Be well and wishing both of you blessed perseverence in your trial,
Alice

The hermit crab, thinks crabby so it can't be good

Anyway we are praying for you, will light a candle tonight at Church.

Thanks all, Debbie's two sisters and niece had her in a good mood today which lifted her spirit a bunch.

james

Prayers continue.

Prayers for Debbie and Jakub. Lord keep them strong and in your love grant them healing. For Your are our Great Lord now and forever and ever amen.
G

Quick note; Debbie came home today although they wanted to keep her for another week or more. She is in much pain when sitting and I am learning nursing skills via hands on self hit or miss training...

james

Prayers for both,
CS

Prayers for the wife of my dear friend and brother, that Debbie's pain be relieved and she be returned to good health through the intercession of the Unmercenary Physicians, and prayers also for James, that his burdens - of love though they be - not overwhelm him.

Brother Neil, I thank you for the comforting words and thoughts...

james

May our Lord have mercy on you both. Please, most blessed Mother of God, lighten the burden of the crosses which both Debbie and James are carrying--

Amen.

In Christ,
Alice
