I also want to caution you to make sure you don't wear yourself out, because if you get sick, you won't be much use to anyone.
I put my kids first too, work full-time, etc., but I'm suffering my SECOND cold in 3 weeks, which my 3-year-old granddaughter "gave" me. Not to mention, it was my birthday on Sunday and I was too miserable to really enjoy it.
So take care of yourself...and I'll say a prayer for you too, Lisa!
CT and you are in my prayers.
Have done so.
Lisa, CT and YOU will be in my prayers.
Dear Lisa:
You need to take care of yourself first so you can help CT.
Regarding your family just follow your 'inner voice' and do what it tells you to do.
But right now, please get some rest & good food so you can stay well.
My beloved husband is also having a health challenge at the moment and I have been very anxious. What I've learned works for me is to ask God to hold my hand during this time.
I take time each day to go to a quiet place for a few minutes. Then I sit in silence and repeat: "Be still and know that I am God". It refreshes my soul and I feel at peace.
Remember that so many freepers are praying for you and CT. All those prayer will sustain and strengthen both of you.
God Bless........Julie
Absolutely one of my favorite FReepers of all time. You tell him StAn sends his best and to get well asap, because he is needed here.
Hang tight Lisa.. I know a lot of what must be going thru your mind as you deal with all of these things. Be kind to your self. Trust God for all things. Hard to let go but that is the only way for peace.
Thinking of you both & praying for you both
UPDATE:
Getting ready to head to CT's home, his step-son is bringing him home from the hospital. I will be staying there with him for a few days, so will update as I can. He seems to be doing well, thanks again for prayers and caring everyone.
We'll all be thinking of you, Lisa! Give CT my best!
Prayers continue for CT, YOU, and his family. Safe journey and thank you so much for updating all of us! Let him know his FR family is keeping him in our thoughts and prayers.
Do not know if similiar is available for CT. Give it a think.
Tell CT we're thinking about and 'rooting' for him.
Your are a good friend,we will keep praying.
I will be staying there with him for a few days
