Beloved of All
Our family is in need of prayers. So many (I feel) I'm not even sure where to start, really. My husband has been ill with stomach issues for months with no definitive answers or diagnosis. He's just seen a specialist and we're waiting on results from his blood work. Several years ago he was diagnosed with PTSD after his first two deployments. We worked through this with a counselor, and he's done wonderful for a few years, but is starting to have problems with this again. His job, in addition to everything else we've been dealing with, are the source of constant stress. We are currently very, very far away from family and friends and have been praying that our next duty station would be closer. However, we've just learned this is probably not to be, unless a small miracle happens. I fear this will cause even more stress and depression for my husband.
My daughter has been ill for a couple of years and none of the doctors she's seen to date have been able to find the cause of her illness.
My stepdaughter isn't a Christian and doesn't believe in God.
Our dog got sick two weeks ago with serious balance issues. His doctor seems to not be able to diagnose him. In two weeks we've been told inner ear trouble, then brain tumor, then spinal trouble. Now, she is back to thinking brain tumor. During the day, I'm home alone with him and have been terrified that he'll have a medical emergency and I'll be unable to handle it.
As for me, I'm trying very hard to be the rock of the family, to the point of ignoring my own medical issues in order to care for everyone and I'm tired (12 hours of sleep in the last two weeks), sick, and worn down emotionally and physically.
Please pray for healing and definitive diagnosis for my husband, daughter, and dog. Please pray for my husband to beat PTSD for good. Please pray that we'll be able to move closer to family if this is God's will. Please pray for my stepdaughter to accept Jesus as her Lord and Savior. Please pray for strength for me in the coming days.
