Saw J's family at Mass this morning. She looked really good. They had a good camping trip, stayed one night and most of the next day. She could skip one Dialysis treatment, but not two. Had a lot of fun doing the ropes course and archery and a bunch of other stuff.

OK Margaret, will be praying for your friend.

I just heard this morning that my closest friend over the last 50 years has had a recurrence of her bowel cancer. It is not a secondary cancer which is a good thing but she had to have an op on Friday and the next stage is chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Please keep her (Di) and her family in your prayers for a successful outcome. Thank you

Thank you Carla, MK, well just everyone for your thoughtful words. My family and I really appreci ate all your prayers. I think those prayers just helped get us past the midnight mark.

RAchel it's good to here that Elijah is doing well and that you had a peacefull weekend.

Teri, are there any job fairs in your area? There have been a few in the tri-state area, here. Perhaps some "cold calling" like they suggest on the women for hire website?

There are really great tips on this site.

Best of luck, Lissette

Joan sounds like your Dad's sromache is in the right place.
To all of those who's companies are downsizing or going out of business my heart aches for you. I pray for you all frequently.

Just to give you all a quick update on my situation.
Elijah is doing better. His stomach still hurts from time to time but we have cut out milk and sugar and that seems to have helped the most. especially the milk.
I talked to my one neighbors daughter and she told me that the neighbors on the otherside of me are the ones that are getting her going. They are telling her that the false statements. And getting her a riled up. She is nearly blind (her vision is very blury with no depth perception,but she can see colors), that and she is 89 years old. Anyway we had peace this weakend.

Teri, I will pray for your DH, and I ask that you pray for us, as well. Just found out my DH will lose his job after the end of the year. This is pretty scary - I think I'll be looking for work, also. We will be losing our health insurance, which was such a blessing to us when I had my surgery (kidney cancer) a year ago. And he's been doctoring for a blood clot in his leg. I hope I'm not too rusty to get a job with benefits (it's been 8 years). Perhaps Wal-Mart is still hiring?? Please pray that we will make good decisions.

Thank you for the continued prayers! This goes a long way towards my sanity!

MK - "Facility Supervisor" or "Building Manager" or something along that line. That's basically what he's been doing over the last 14 years.

Teri - You and DH are in my prayers too! What type of work is he looking for?

Mary Kay

Liidz Will keep you all in prayer!

A quick update - dh is still looking for work - the resume's keep going out and no responses. We're hoping soon. One the quilt show is over I'm going to kick into gear looking.

Thank you all!

Teri

Liiddz - Sending {{{HUGS}}} and prayers your way! Mary Kay

thank you all for your prayers.my dad seems to be doing better. I am in Palm Coast, FLorida with my mom and it is so strange to be just the two of us, and she is still confused as to why she had to leave dad and why he's not home yet. but we are doing fine, she is cutting fusible pieces for a quilt. I told dad that we were making a quilt and he said "but I can't eat that" so I think he is on the mend! my brother and sister are down in Miami with him.

Carla, so glad things went well for your husband. Liiddz, I said a prayer for your family--the Lord will comfort you and as the years go by, the "day" won't be so painful. My Dad passed away in 1992 and the heartache has been replaced with all the sweet memories. Judy in Torrance

God Bless each and everyone,youre always in my thoughts and prayers. Kathy

(( You 'everyone' are in my thoughts and prayers ))

Love,Hugzzz, Kathy
