Some of you will recall that last year my wife Rambette had some difficulties in obtaining a nursing job because of a bureaucratic screwup.
It has come to our attention that this was not a screwup per se, but almost certainly resulted from misconduct on the part of one or more hospital staff members. I cannot go into detail on the forum, but suffice it to say that the coverup for someone's favoritism and/or stupidity has strayed far into misconduct territory, and some people have a lot invested in making her seem like a problem child. Let me add that I have never known anyone who is more professional and devoted to patient care than my wife.
She needs prayers for protection, wisdom and justice. She is preparing to go toe-to-toe.
Thank you in advance.
Rambette is on my prayer list. She does not need or deserve this kind of foolishness.
How on Earth could I have anything against nursing? My response was solely to this particular post. He was asking for our prayers for a situation he chose not to explain. In this circumstance, I don't think prayers are appropriate. In my life I've learned that most people think they are the victim at work. They rarely want to look at their own behavior. I was merely suggesting that if there's a problem with co-workers, perhaps his wife should examine herself. If it truly is a conspiracy against her, then she needs a good lawyer, not prayers.
Prayers up!
Prayers for you and your wife. May God grant you wisdom to guide you through this difficulty.
Prayers sent
Prayers!
My prayers are reserved for those who really deserve them. Unless I know the whole story, this isn't one of them.
I remember your earlier post last year. Both you and your wife are once again in my prayers, praying that justice will prevail in this situation.
Our prayers for you and your wife. May she be protected from further "evil" deeds by others and allowed to pursue her career of helping others.
"TT", Beth & Nana
The Lord's Will be done.
Based on your limited information, I sincerely hope she kicks their fat *sses.
When someone posts on a public forum, they better be prepared for all kinds of opinions.
Good luck to you and your wife with this situation.
May everything turn out right.
Prayers sent for truth and justice to win the day!

Psalms 31
1. In thee, O Jehovah, do I take refuge; Let me never be put to shame: Deliver me in thy righteousness.

17. Let me not be put to shame, O Jehovah; For I have called upon thee: Let the wicked be put to shame, let them be silent in Sheol.
18. Let the lying lips be dumb, Which speak against the righteous insolently, With pride and contempt.
19. Oh how great is thy goodness, Which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee, Which thou hast wrought for them that take refuge in thee, Before the sons of men!
20. In the covert of thy presence wilt thou hide them from the plottings of man: Thou wilt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.
21. Blessed be Jehovah; For he hath showed me his marvellous lovingkindness in a strong city.
22. As for me, I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: Nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications When I cried unto thee.
23. Oh love Jehovah, all ye his saints: Jehovah preserveth the faithful, And plentifully rewardeth him that dealeth proudly.
24. Be strong, and let your heart take courage, All ye that hope in Jehovah.
Prayers for your wife!!
There is hope...
There is hope...
God bless her with the words to say and the courage to say them. Protect her, Father, and Thy will be done. Amen.
In a twelve step program it is suggested that we pray for our enemies. They may actually need the prayers more than your darling wife, as she is the honest one here.
That is a system that has worked for me personally.
Heavenly Father, please allow all of the involved parties to open up their hearts and let your redeeming grace fill them, I ask in Jesus name. Amen
