Hi everyone....I received a FRmail from someone tonight regarding her son. Since she doesn't appear to be online, I don't feel I can include her screen name. If she wants SHE can let you know who she is.
Here's her FRmail...If it wouldn't be too much trouble would you mind posting a prayer request for my son? He is in crisis right now and may have to be hospitalized on a suicide watch. We aren't sure exactly what is wrong but hopefully will be able to get a full evaluation done now. This little guy is only 7 and has been having difficulties since at least age 3. Thanks so much. Blessings...
OK Prayer Warriors, I KNOW I've been hitting this list a lot lately, and if you want off the ping list, please let me know. It's OK.
But will you PLEASE pray for this poor baby who's hurting so badly? And his family? Thank you!
Another update. Just talked to the social worker. Estimated stay 10 days, at least. Tolerating meds well but no word on if he is showing any improvment yet. Trying to make arrangements to go see him tomorrow (not looking good for that) especially since tomorrow will probably be the only chance I get to go visit him the whole time he is there. (we live more than an hour away from the hospital and lack child care and transportation). Hopefully things will work out for tomorrow.
Prayers going up!
Prayers for this little one and his entire family.
"TT", Beth & Nana
Thanks Gramma. I'll be calling the him in about 15 minutes so I can talk to him for a few minutes at least.
Thanks for sending the updates. Positive news knowing they have something to deal with at least. Hope the meds help. Still praying for the little guy. By the way, speaking of little guys, how's Logan doing this hot summer? Hope ole smiley eyes he is well and happy. :)
Please post your replies to sfimom
sfimom, My prayers continue for Damian and your family.
Brad's Gramma - thank you for the ping.
Blessings,
trussell

*****NEW UPDATE*****NEED ADVICE*****
OK I got to talk to him for 6 min. We're supposed to get 10 but the nurses cut us off (I have no idea why). I have no idea how he is tolerating the medication other than that he said that he had 'lots of headaches today'. Something isn't right here. The Dr apparently never talked to him but prescribed a very powerful medication for him. The Dr 'routinely' does not speak to the parents so I have not been able to speak to him. The only answers I get from the nurses are 'He's doing good' and 'we don't know. What's going on here? Hubby is home to stay with the kids if I want to go see him but no one will take me so that's out. What can I do about the Dr and nurses not answering any of my questions? They just shunt me over to a social worker that doesn't know how he's doing?
Thinking of you and Damian.
No one will watch them other than him. No ride anyway so I can't get there.
Trussell, your prayers and kind thoughts are always so soothing for those in need. I just wanted to tell you that. You have a heart of gold, and prayers that are, I'm sure, always heard.
Thank you Miss Behave. Your kind words are really appreciated!
Damn. Hang in there, sfi. You need some relief and rest and answers. We are all with you, and you have lots of prayers coming your and Damian's way. Lots of hugs as well. LOTS.
So very sad. Praying for this child, the family, and the situation surrounding them.
