Thank you for adding us to your prayer list! Very generous of you. Yes, His Will will be done, whether we swim upstream against Him or go with the flow. Kinda tough to know when to fight though. Thank you again.

"The disorder causes the pneumonia (infection) not the other way around"

Yes, I believe you are correct. Thank you for your prayers. :)

[griffin]

Thank you Bill. I'm a little confused by your link though re: post 96.

[griffin]

Monkey, thanks for the advise. She has the links now. We are getting 2nd and 3rd opinions. The Dr. she went to see was Dr. Ragu in Seattle Washington...suppost to be one of the best in the world on this sort of stuff.

cmsgop, BeforeISleep, BlueAngel; thank you all for your prayers.

You're welcome griffin. Sorry I don't have any medical info to help, but I'll bump this thread.

[MissAmericanPie]

You both are in my prayers.

The Lord has the power to heal as well as to grant us everlasting life. I remember one passage where the disciples were not able to cure some one in His name, and our Lord Himself cured her, casting out a demon. And Jesus commented that that particular demon could only be overcome with much prayer and fasting.

The Holy Spirit, our Comforter, be with you all.

I've been gone for a few days and just saw this. I will keep your sister on my prayer list, griffin. God, surely, will hear so many of us!

Just said a prayer,my sister is also dying of terminal lung disease and they just started her with a new drug,her name is Charleen

[patriciaruth]

Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil;
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever.
Amen.

.

Matthew 6: 9-13

[patriciaruth]

For Charleen,

But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

John 14: 26-27

Can you tell me a little bit about Charlene and her condition?

[patriciaruth]

Where does your sister live? And it would be nice to have her Christian name for when we pray, if that would be okay.

[maestro]

How's your sister doing since she went in hospital with the bad attack?

[CaliGirlGodHelpMe]

You can rest assured that your sister is in my prayers. I know that you are very avidly looking for medical help for your sister, but I have a suggestion. Please look into intravenous hydrogen peroxide therapy. It has worked miracles. William Campbell Douglass II, M.D. (this is the correct spelling) swears by it; he used it many times at his clinic in Africa to save the lives of people with various serious infections, and is using it today in his practice in the U.S. There are several clinics in the U.S. that offer this therapy. I wish you and your sister the very best of luck. I'll be thinking of you. Elaine (Cali Girl)

PatriciaRuth...thank you ...AND Everyone else for their prayers.

I just got back from about a 6 day stay in Idaho, praying and meeting with my sister, Sarah. She was in the Cardiac Care unit and was very questionable for a time..she seems to have cleared the hurdle now in the short term...but the long term is still scary. We did a lot of praying and talking about Christ over the past week. She is doing pretty good I think.

Anyway, she can sit up now again and is starting to come off the Bi-PAP machine and back onto an oxygen mask. The next step beyond the Bi-PAP would have been the ventilator...not a nice alternative. She might be going home again in a week or two.

Anyway, thank you all again!

My sister, Sarah, lives in Boise.... :)

[griffin]

Lord, You are aware of all the prayers we have offered up for my sister. Lord, please hear those prayers for Charleen too. Lord, give Charleen a heart for You so that she may grow in faith and love for You Lord. Holy Spirit, guide Charleen to the true meaning of scripture and to live a life that leads to You. If it is Your will to heal Charleen, Lord, Please stretch out the healing hand that only You can wield, and wipe this disease from Charleen's and Sarah's lungs. If it is not Your will that this be done, please have mercy on them and their families so as the suffering will be minimized....but Lord, we are hurt but not crushed..our faith will not be shaken. We trust in You Lord...please be merciful and let Your saints live for You....Thank You for hearing my prayers. Thank You for Your sacrifice of blood for our sins. In Christ's name, Amen.
