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.

That she might be moved to a rehab floor for better care.
That this will remiss quickly.
All out prayers for your wife and you, chris.
You've come to the right place for support, sir. I've found FReepers to be among the most compassionate and loving people! I'll be adding my prayers for your sweetheart. Bless you both!
Agreeing in prayer.
Chris,
My heart and my prayers are going out for your wife. I pray that a caregiver will walk into that hospital and have the answers that you need.
I was not familiar with this condition so I looked it up on the web. I found
http://www.fsma.org/
and did a quick read through. There is a lot of great info at that site!
I will continue to lift her up in prayer to our Lord, as He is the one true healer. God bless and keep you both.
Prayers from TX for Mrs. Bear_Slayer's total healing and remission, plus comfort for all the Bear_Slayer family.
