Please Pray For My Husband's Recovery [update at 114, 124, 139]
self | March 2, 2015 | self

My dear husband fell, fracturing his femur and tearing a rotator cuff in his shoulder. He does not have osteoporosis; it was just a freaky accident.

He is a big man -- not fat, just big -- and he landed on his hip and his elbow on a neighbor's blacktop driveway. As is so typical of him, he was there to help the neighbor with a task.

He is in very good health -- but not too graceful -- so I am confident that he will heal, but, right now he is in a great deal of pain in the leg and from swelling in the arm. He was able to use the arm right after the fall, but now he cannot.

Also, he is feeling quite glum about the fact that he will not be in full working order for several weeks. We are retired, so, fortunately, he is not missing paid work, but he is always very busy around the house and in our rather large yard. It is bothering him for me to need to take up the slack. Besides, sitting for too long gives him the heebie-jeebies.

I ask for FR Prayer Warriors to pray for relief from his pain and for his spirits to be lifted.

Prayers for Mr. Bigg Red....please consider adding fish oil to recovery

I agree, and also with the earlier post about calcium and vitamin D. And the yoga would be AFTER the prescribed medical rehab, for ongoing complete pain abatement and recovery of flexibility and range of motion.

Make sure that he takes enough Calcium and Vitamin D to help with the healing process. God Bless both of you.

..and the Phosphoric acid in popular soft drinks dissolves bones, read the label.

That sucks.

Femure is fixable.

Torn Rotator Cuff completely sucks but, most people have good luck with surgery....

Lord Jesus Christ, our Healer and Savior, ease the pain and heal Thy servant completely, to Thy eternal glory, we beseech Thee.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen.
