Prayer request for my 4 yr old daughter

me | 11/13/03

[truthandlife]

I am asking a big favor from praying FREEPERS. I wanted you to start praying for my 4 year old daughter, Carly. We had an extensive hearing exam today and Carly has been diagnosed with sensor neural hearing loss. This results from damage to the delicate sensory hair cells of the inner ear or the nerves that supply blood to it. This hearing loss can range from mild to profound. She is in that mid range of hearing loss right now but could progress further. It can progress or stop progressing but it cannot be reversed. It is permanent (unless God miraculously heals her).

I am asking for prayers on a few issues: First, I ask for you to pray for her sensor neural hearing loss to stop. She can still hear reasonably well but she will have a dificult time distinguishing certain sounds without the help of a hearing aid. Second of all, I ask for you to pray for the wisdom of the doctors to find out the cause of her hearing loss. It could be a number of things. I would also like for you to pray for a miracle to happen (God willing) for a reversal of this hearing loss. The last thing is to pray for wisdom and peace for my wife and I. Especially pray for my wife who is pregnant and very emotional at this time.

Thanks for your prayers and we know that "And we know that in all things, God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to His purpose." (Romans 8:28 )

Prayers Done

Hang in there

truthandlife, Prayers dispatched as requested.

It may be presumptuous of me, but I'd guess your daughter is getting good
care there in Texas.

But, if the need for a second opinion arises (and finances/insurance allow),
may I suggest The House Institute in Los Angeles. I ALMOST went there when I had
Meneiere's syndrome. I think Rush Limbaugh even went there with his hearing loss problem.

Hang in there and keep the faith.
I know this is a "time of trial", but at least we live in an era when advancing
technology could possibly ameliorate (and more hopefully cure) your daughter's problem.
The outlook might have been much bleaker a generation ago.

Truthandlife,I'm late to this thread, but not to late to join with your friends in prasyer for little Carly.

You know who holds the future. He will never leave you nor forsake you.

[AnAmericanMother]

Thank you so much for letting us know what's going on.

Don't give up hope, by all means get a second opinion.

We will continue to pray for you!

[Salvation]

**The second thing I would like for you to pray for is wisdom. I would still like to get a second opinion from another ENT and audiologist.**

Definitely a good thought there.

And prayers offered for your wife and you at this time. Think of the hardships that Joseph and Mary went through and you will be lifted.

Praying that the faith of the Lord will suffice in your journey right now!

God bless!

Ask your wife to pray for an indwelling of the Holy Spirit; if she asks, the Comforter will come.
