Terrie

Please add my friend Terrie to our prayer concerns. She's been diagnosed with late stage lyme disease. She's in constant, horrible pain that is going through her whole body. It's most intense around her joints. The doctors are still trying to figure out how to help her but in the meantime, all they are giving her is Tylenol for the pain and that's just not doing anything. Prayers will be greatly appreciated.

Joshua June 14

Friends,
Sue writes:
I had asked for prayers for my co-worker's son (Joshua) last week. He is out of intensive care and is home recuperating, however, they still do not know the cause of his symptoms (multiple blood clots in his lungs). He has difficulty breathing, is weak, exhausted and is unable to work. The prognosis is that he can be out of work anywhere from 6 weeks to 6 months, depending on how he responds to treatment. To make matters worse, he and his wife have no health insurance and, as they reside in Pennsylvania, they have no short-term disability benefits. His wife doesn't work. They have a 7 month old infant at home.

A few good things are that they live with relatives who will help them out with groceries and his employer will help with utilities. However, they have a car payment, student loans and a credit card bill. (By the way, the doctor who treated him told him that if he had waited two more days before seeking treatment, he would have died.)

I can't imagine facing this kind of situation. Not knowing what kind of medical issue they are dealing with, or for how long, is bad enough...but the finances are the icing on the cake.

Please pray for the entire situation.

Thanks,

Sue

Josh

I am still in Seattle as you know. I am writing to ask that you pray for my son Josh and also if you would ask your church family to pray. He is in ICU in Scranton. He has a blood clot in his lung and is having trouble breathing. He is undergoing lots of tests to find out the cause.

Thanks.
Michelle

Prayer Concern on Tuesday

I have a prayer request. My co-worker’s cousin Tyson Quick, in the armed forces, was hit by a roadside bomb while in Afghanistan. He lost both of his feet above the ankles. He is in a hospital in Germany.

Please pray for his recovery and his family.

Thank you, Tootie
