[Outsider]

Please pray for GaryK and myself. We are both in 2 different hospitals for conditions with our bowels. I had a perforated duodenum and had to have surgery to fix me, and Gary had blood in his stool- not fixed but red and raw. That was all he was able to tell me when we talked on the phone.

I'm recovering well, but when I called Gary I was unable to get through. Please pray for him, he is the core of the little ministry in Thomaston, and his family needs him.

I'm in Wellstar Middle Georgia in La Grange, and Gary is in one in South-Central Ga.

I would deeply appreciate your fervent prayers, and I'm absolutely sure Gary will too.

In love...

Will do.

Thanks Outsider! I’m doing well. No bleeding for over 24 hours. I’m currently prepping for a colonoscopy tomorrow. The cleansing process is not necessarily enjoyable, they tell me.

On the bright side, if anyone says you need to flush "toxins" out of your gut, you can tell them you have already done so... very thoroughly...

Prayers going up for you- the procedure itself is nothing, praying for a good report

Thanks everyone for your prayers! Just got home from the hospital. It seems like the issue has been resolved. Now to get my energy back.

Thanks be to God & physicians!

I would appreciate any prayers for my health. About a month ago I had my back go bad. A herniated disc, pinching my nerve, pain down my leg. I can’t sit. I can stand up for a few minutes. Mostly I’ve just been laying flat on my back.

Progress report?

.. prayers for the U.S. and world ..

Currently Biden's public statements were blaming a "busy travel schedule" (when he had a week at Camp David to prepare for this debate) giving him jet lag, and his current solution is that he will start having an 8pm bedtime.

His obvious condition really hurts national security in the eyes of world leaders.

It is sad, I feel badly for him. I hate the mocking & jokes. God does not like mocking at all.
Reality is he cannot serve another term- but who will they surprise us with?

i don’t believe anyone on forum has mocked, i hope not, the topic has quieted, as it should, really.
i don’t recall a time to compare, aside from JFK’s assassination, then, later, Nixon-Watergate, resignation.
i was very young and not involved in politics, but the gravity of both situations was felt by all.

there is tremendous “ugly” in the airwaves, as many scramble to justify their words and actions leading to this.
they were lost before, they’re lost still.

biden appears to be choosing defiance against all, including many closest to him.
i would not have expected this. or wished for it.

of course, defiant denial happens in many families, causing deep pain.
pain cannot be escaped. it’s a matter of dignified acceptance or making it as hard as possible, all around.

as scriptures describe, mortality is hardest for the wealthy+powerful. Matthew 6:20
biden may live years+years more. with increasing impairments.

when we went through similar with my husband, i was shocked to experience the opposite path of raising children.
with babies/children, everyday is a new world, new skills learned, new abilities gained.
with (dementia?) .. everyday represents loss, no matter how small, or even with temporary plateaus .. the trend is down.
we had many plateaus. no matter how positive/long lasting, the next step was increased loss. it’s hard.

life is an arc. for those allowed the gift of time.
