Clara, praying for you and your family. Margarita

Keeping you and your boys in my prayers. Kaylynn put it well. May the prayers of others lift you up at this time. Jan

Clara, I cannot begin to understand the depth of that kind of pain, nor can I offer any advice. But I do know the One who created us and He does understand and He can comfort like no other. I will continue to keep you all in my prayers.

Clara, I think all you can do is surround your boys with as much love as you can manage, but please take care of yourself, too. Your boys need to know that their mom is going to be okay, so it might help to share with them what you're doing to take care of yourself. Many hugs and prayers for you and your family as you find your way through this pain.

Oh Clara, I'm so sorry and I'm praying for you and your family.

Will do, dear Clara. (((((((((((((Clara & family))))))))))))

I need to ask for some prayers. Prayers for my boys that they can find the courage to walk everyday and breathe. Prayers that one day taking that step to walk won't feel like it is so hard. Prayers to help them not lose themselves in this time of crisis and know sometimes it is ok to need others for a while. Prayers that my family that they will not be broken for long.

No matter how tough it is on you it is so hard to see your babies (11 & 13) go through so much pain and to see their spark falter and diminish for a while. It feels as though nothing you do helps and would want nothing more than to take that pain away from them forever. I struggle (some days more than others0 and have a hard time wrapping my brain around 2 suicides. How can I possibly imagine my boys even being able to do it. This is so tough for us all.

Thanks for letting me have a place just to put my heart out there for just a little while. Clara

Shirley, thank you for letting us know about Nancy. I'll add her to my prayers and hope that she beats the odds!

Dawn, I'm sending you an email with suggestions from my mom, whose had sciatica issues as long as I can remember. I hope you can find the "off" switch soon!

Praying for relief of pain Dawn.

Dawn you are in my prayers, I know how continuous pain can change a persons personality, I recently had a flare up of gout it is much better now but it sure changes you while it is happening. I pray that your pain goes away. Joan

Dawn, I will be praying!

Blessings to everyone,
Shirley
