I am posting this because I know the power of prayer and how many prayer warriors we have on this site.
Today my eldest daughter was diagnosed with MS. She and her husband have three children. They have gone thru some really trying and difficult times in the past, including home fires where they basically lost everything they had and job losses that almost destroyed them financially.
I was amazed at how they came thru the problems and managed to raise three smart, talented kids who don't seem to be damaged by all the problems.
Now, there is the diagnosis of MS. Just as they were getting back on their feet. My son in law is a good man, loves his family with everything in him, a wonderful father. My daughter is, however, the rock that holds everything together. She is amazing with her courage and strength.
Please pray for her and her family, the doctors and other health care workers that she will be seeing. But, please pray most of all that this, that satan will try to use to damage, will instead be turned and show the Glory of God, and His mercy and grace to all of us.
Prays sent, God Bless.
Very good advice, Kilt.
Saying Hail Marys.
Thanks to all for the prayers and also those who have suggested different treatment options. Our family appreciates all the care shown to us. Thanks again.
Prayed for healing.
Prayers up.

Prayers for your daughter.
I’ve had MS for almost 20 years. The best advice I could offer is for your daughter to educate herself about MS. Learn to recognize symptoms, and to listen to her body and pace herself.
I’ve found great help and encouragement through MS online forums. One is MS World forums. It offers lots of information and advice.
And tell her to remember, everybody’s MS is different so don’t assume the worst case scenario, there are definitely new normals, but with each new normal, you adjust.
Remember there are symptomatic meds for almost any symptom of MS, so don’t suffer in silence. Talk to her neuro about the symptoms she’s experiencing, and see if there is a way to get help with that symptom. That might mean physical therapy, it might mean a med, but it’s worth asking about.
If she ever wants to “talk” to me or needs some information, just use my private freeper mail.
She sounds like a strong lady, and has already learned to “roll with the punches”...that’s 80% of the battle with MS, just learning to constantly adjust from day to day what’s happening with your body due to the MS.
Done.
Your daughter and all of your family have my prayers.
Prayers for you and your family.
May God’s love enfold you during your time of trouble.

Prayers for your poor daughter and family!
i pray this won’t be any worse than it s now. Many people have MS who really are just mostly “annoyed” by it and don’t get much worse than that.
God be with you all. More crosses than most can bear. Again, God be with you all.
May the healing power of God’ S grace wash over your daughter and her family including you and yours. This I pray for.
I think you posted to the wrong person. :)
Ann de is the one requesting the prayers.
Prayers being said for your family. Put your complete trust in God.
May the Lord bless all of them.
