Hi Vicki,

He is number one in my prayers tonight, I hope you are worrying

needlessly, maybe he has mono, and the lymph node is swelled from that. I

know most nodes are tender and painful to touch, but I don't think all are.

Let us know the minute you hear anything.

Hugs,

Hi Every one, I have a prayer request for tonight's prayers. I just found

out my 18 year old son(Shane) has had what he thought was a stubborn cold

for over a month. I didn't even recognize his voice it was so bad. But now

he also noticed a lump under a mole, beneath his ear about the size of a

small egg. He says it doesn't hurt or feel bad. Which worries me, if it was

a swollen lymph node it would at least be tender, all mine hurt when they

are swollen. I know it quite possibly could be an infection, since he let

the cold go for so long, but I'm still so worried about him. He has a

doctor's appt on Monday. All I keep thinking is Hodgkin's Disease. I know

there are many other explanations, so I'm trying not to worry, but its

difficult. Please remember him in your prayers tonight. Thanks so much, I

know I can count on you guys.

Hugs & Lots of Love

Debbie,

My prayers are with you. I worked for a dr's office for several years doign

managed care & I can tell you they can & will drag it out. You need to speak

with a supervisor at Aetna. Juast an aside a firnd once told me never pray

for patience because then God will put things in your path in order for you

to develop greater patience! I had never thought of that before ..... but now

it sure makes me think when I pray!!! I will be praying that Aetna gets you

your chair VERY soon. God Bless.... Kris

Debbie,

Don't give up. Keep writing, faxing and making those phone calls. The

sqeeky wheel gets oiled. It's really not fair to drag this out for so

long, when you are in need. I hope the issue is resolved soon. Good

luck.

Aloha,

Georgina

i am so sorry for yall aetna is a hard company to get somethings for

i had it with them with my father in law

call the medical insurance commissioner in your state

complain about it to a higher person and get their names

so when you call the rental service or aetna you will sound proffessional

sounds sneaky but it does work lololol

also call the medical board in your area

and call the doctor and tell him or her that your haveing so much trouble

and he could call and say this is a emergency situation

also call the hospital you use and talk with social services

and get their advice this will get you farther the social services help in

alot of ways

if you still have any problems let me know

Hi Liz,

You're welcome :-)

Actually, yes, I did see the McGruders in person :-) They came to my sister-in-laws Church about a month or so ago. Priscilla has cancer and that was going to be their last engagement for a while. She WAS doing well though. I truly enjoyed them! She is so inspiring. Really glad I got to see them. Especially at Church like that, much more personal. Yeah, they ARE great! Spiritual and just so REAL.

And thanks, I DID enjoy my bath :-) Just couldn't listen to my tape as I couldn't find my earphones for the little cassette player, and it doesn't have speakers! Need to get me a little portable one. Especially for when Rashelle gets the weight loss affirmation tapes done! Plan on listening to it while I sleep :-)

Have a great day!

{{{HUGS}}} & God bless, Bonnie

Thank you so much, June for that sweet gesture. And thanks to Tery, a,

Barb, and everyone else who is praying for my neighbor, too. Her physician

allowed her to go home yesterday where she is resting comfortably. She just

wasn't getting any sleep in the hospital.

You HAVE been away for a long time, June. a named you and Joan MIAs the

other day. I'm glad you are so involved with your Patient Partners program.

Four sessions in a week does sound like a lot, but I'm happy you are

enjoying it so much. I'm sure you are a terrific asset to the group.

I'm glad your neighbor is home. I can sympathies with not sleeping in

hospitals. Not even sleeping pills would knock me out. I hope she has a

speedy recovery.

Vicki,

Our prayers are certainly with you. I work with

oncology patients at Children's Medical Center of

Dallas. I noticed you are in the DFW area, so please

feel free to email me offlist if you need anything.

Also, if you are at Children's, please let me know. I

would love to come and visit you and work with Duncan

(I am a music therapist in the Child Life Department).

Take care,

(Dallas)

Vicki, I am so sorry to hear about poor little Duncan. Please know

that your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. I remember you

posting before that Duncan had TEC, do they still believe that was

what he had or do they now think it might have actually been ALL?

Again, I am so sorry that your family is going through this. Please

keep us updated on Duncan! Sending you (((((HUGS)))))

Apparently it was the leukemia cells " gumming up " his bone marrow,

keeping any red blood cells from getting out, causing the anemia. We

wish it was TEC now.

Duncan should be going home tomorrow, assuming his blood counts are

okay. Late this evening the " mope monster " we'd been living with the

past few days suddenly left and our little boy came back! It is such

a relief!

Thanks to everyone,

Hi There ,

My name is and I'm not sure if we've ever actually talked online or exchanged e-mails, but I do know that prayers work wonderfully. I was told 3 months ago that I wouldn't live through the night. Well, with lots of prayers, I'm was very happy to prove the Dr.'s wrong. You and your Dad will be in my thoughts and prayers. If you ever need someone to talk too or to just vent some of your frustrations, I'm here. Feel free to write any time. Please let me know how things are going for your Dad. Take care of yourself, and remember to get some rest. All the best and God Bless,

I am so sorry about your dad. He has been

through an awful lot! I will say a prayer tonight,

REQUEST

I wanted to ask you all to please be praying for

dad. They have put him back

in the hospital with kidney failure due to all the

medication he has been on.

He is in an extreme amount of pain. We

continue to look to the Lord for his

healing and strength.

Thank you!

((((((((((((((((((((Tess))))))))))))))))))))) Prayers are flying heavenward

Sending lots of love and some virtual chicken soup,
