My wife has a neuromuscular disease. Thus far it has been diagnosed as Spinal Muscular Atrophy. This is a tentative diagnose and is as close as MDA has come.
She relapses and remiss ocassionally. The relapse are worse each time and the remissions are less complete.
On Monday she started to relapse with increased weakening in her lower legs. By Tuesday morning her legs were just about useless.
By Friday Morning her arms were weakened to the point that they became useless. At this point an ambulance was called to transport her to the hospital.
She has been admitted and they are working with her to get this to go into remission. Thus far the care has been spotty at best. The doctor is MIA and some of the nurses have attitudes.
Please pray:
That her care-givers would have true nurturer hearts.
Grace in abundance for my wife and I.
"I can't abide rudeness in a man." -Capt. Call.
That she might be moved to a rehab floor for better care.
That this will remiss quickly.
-Chris
My prayers to you and your wife.
Oh Chris, yes, we'll all pray for your wife...
A tip from a veteran patient: Get a notebook and begin to take notes whenever a nurse enters a room. It does wonders for their attentiveness.
Prayers up.
And here is a much needed hug!
Prayers to you and your family from here!
Lord, I pray for this lady to be healed from the top of her head to the soles of her feet; I pray that you heal her of every disease, every affliction and every infirmity. We know that by Your stripes she is healed; she is well. We know that it is Your will for her to be healed and we declare her healed in Jesus' name.
Amen.
Offering my prayers
Praying for y'all. May God be with you and provide the blessings needed.
You and your wife will most definitely be in my prayers.
prayers for you.
Just listening to Selah's CD--the song "Press On"
"In Jesus' name, we find the strength to press on..."
In His name Chris, I pray for your wife to have healing, and a remission for this disease.
And for strength for you to press on. Be strong, for He cares for you.
Prayers up for you and your wife! Is this a new diagnosis?
Chris,
Our prayers are with you and your dear wife.
May you always walk with the Lord. He loves you both.
Prayers for your wife's health.
Good idea. Thank you!
Beautiful song and one of my wife's favorites.
The last 2 years is when it has gotten worse, with relapses every few months.
Prayers for you and your wife!
