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 )

A Prayer of St. Chrysostom

Almighty God, who hast given us grace at this time with one
accord to make our common supplication unto thee; and
hast promised through thy well-beloved Son that when two
or three are gathered together in his Name thou wilt be in the
midst of them: Fulfill now, O Lord, our desires and petitions
of thy servants as may be best for us; granting us in this
world knowledge of thy truth, and in the world to come life
everlasting. Amen.

Prayers on the way.

Stay strong.

I worked as a teacher with many children who were deaf or hard of hearing, though, and they are all wonderful children. In many ways they seem to have less "attitude" and are more happy and enthusiastic about life and learning.

I will also pray that you accept all the joys this little girl has to bring to you.
