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.
Prayers on the way for your wife and for you. God Bless.
How frightening. Sounds like a pretty mushy diagnosis to me, although of course I don't know.
Lord look down on your daughter, give her strength and courage. You are the great Physician and all things are in your hands.
Resolve this crisis quickly, give the doctors wisdom, her caregivers compassion, and give both Chris and his wife a double portion of your Spirit. Amen.
Our prayers are going up for all of you.
Thank you so much for such a clear request and details of that for which you are asking. It puts us in greater agreement with focus.

Adding my prayers for her recovery.
I lift you up in prayer to the God who made you both, and who loves you. He gave you to each other, and even as she has cared for you, so you shall be a hero to her. You can tdo this - God has chosen you wisely for the task ahead. You will be blessed with her love for your steadfast strength...
Father, you see your child. Fill her with your Holy Spirit and heal her through your loving care. Guide her doctors, and bring to her the nurse who will help her to reach her health. Send your Angels to these, Your children whom You created with Your Hand. I ask it, in Jesus name!
