1) My Mom had a stroke a while back. She is still recovering from the stroke. She has improved a little bit, but she still has long ways to go. She's still paralyzed on her left side, and is not able to walk. She still needs inpatient rehab. Unfortunately, her insurance only covered 30 days for her inpatient rehab. They also stopped covering her home health, to make matters worse. My Mom needs professional help, but insurance is the only thing keeping her from getting that help. We already signed her up for Medicaid. My Aunt is also doing whatever she can to set an interview for a sitter to sit with Mom while my brother & I are in Jackson for my rehab. We are hoping and praying we hear something from them soon. Please be in prayer. 2) I was in a horrible car accident back in September. I have come a very long way from the accident, but I still have a 5% recovery left to go. I'm still attending outpatient rehab, plus I have to have surgery on my left eye, due to double vision. They have taken me off of medicaid, and I won't be able to have surgery without insurance. It is a blessing knowing that I am still able to attend rehab. I am doing whatever I can to appeal my medicaid, so that I could have the eye surgery done. Please be in prayer. 3) Two of my good friends are dealing with storms in their lives right now. One of these friends are living in Pennsylvania. She has been battling with some health issues. She has been in a lot of pain, even screaming in agony for being in pain. The hospital system there is not very good. They've only prescribed her to pain medicine once, because they have strong opinions against pain medicine. My other friend is dealing with a lot, because she found out recently that she was abused as a child by her father. Please be in prayer for them both. 4) Two of my good friends whom I went to community college with recently came out as homosexuals. Before that, both friends were married to what seemed to be wonderful men. They also have beautiful children together and everything. And now, they have divorced their husbands and are living with their girlfriends. Please be in prayer for these two. 5) Please say a prayer for my Grandmother. My Grandmother is very selfish and narcissistic. As much as I hate mentioning it, it's true. She has caused a lot of problems in the family in order to be in control of things. She said some pretty nasty things about my Grandfather, who passed away in August 2017. She has tried to poison me & my brothers against my Mom by feeding us lies about her, and it worked with one of my brothers for a short time. She's also spread rumors about some of our really good friends who goes to our church. We had to cut her out of our lives a couple months ago, because of all the strife she has put us through. I have forgiven her, but I don't want to be around hers and dealing with manipulative tactics getting the best of me and my family. I want to walk in grace and forgiveness, & found I couldn't do so while being confronted by such toxicity. My Grandmother is also not a Christian. She enjoys living in sin, and does not want to change her ways. She knows we are a good Christian family, and she does not like it. That is probably the reason she tried to divide us in the first place. Please pray that God will send the right people in her life to share the gospel with her, and encourage her to turn from her own ways and to follow Jesus. 6) Future husband. I hope and pray that God will send the right person in my life soon. 7) I have a part time job cleaning someone's house. The woman who hired me is really sweet and godly. She also has some personal issues in her family. Please be in prayer for them. 8) My Aunt has recently got a job in Dollar General. So far, she is doing swell. She said that once she becomes manager, she will hire one of my brothers. One of us really needs a job. I'm still in college; therefore, I can only do so much. Plus, my Mom won't be able to return to work for at least a while, due to her recovering from a stroke. Please be in prayer. 9) My older brother is still in prison, and has been for a few years now. He was sentenced to 7 years for something minor, yet the DA wanted to crucify and make an example of him as if he comitted the most horrendous crime on earth. This is completely uncalled for. Thankfully, the prison he is staying at is quite peaceful. God is definitely with my brother during this time. We visit him every other Saturday. We are currently doing whatever we can to make sure he doesn't get made an example of by the time he is released from prison. Please be in prayer.
