I am a 59-year old partially disabled man, going to a reunion of sorts at my 84-year old mother's apartment today, and one of my teeth seems to be going over the edge rather badly; even with painkillers I can't sleep. I won't be able to get to a dentist for several days. I am afraid of messing up the day for my whole family; there are relatives coming from the East Coast we rarely see, and my brother's family, and my wife and kids, and the event means a lot to my mother, who is in declining health, and the rest of us, especially in light of my father's passing last August. We also have a long drive to get there, and my wife (from whom I am separated; she is not Christian and this is the source of much difficulty for us), is prone to be very angry with me about inconveniences. I am already in considerable pain most of the time from fibromyalgia and may not be able to sleep at all tonight with the additional tooth problem. I'm getting pretty desperate here, but I believe God, and those who do His will, can forbear and can heal. Thank you for your prayers, and may God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit bless you and your family.--Chris
