I know it is Lent and it is Friday and I know it is the Will of God, but sigh...I am weak. I don't want to complain.....I need you all, we just need help----need prayers. Time of struggling, God is allowing great testing, just so overwhelmed....please just pray for us again?

Also, my dh's car was smashed in for the third time on our street yesterday and the check that he got FINALLY (still waiting for two others) .....just covered the expense of 400$ for the new window. Poof, gone.

Things went OK at CF Clinic. Ironically, my little guy who struggles with weight was the same in 2 months...no loss, but no gain. But Clare (just turned six) who eats constantly had lost one pound. Doc also put them on new round of antibiotics and prednisone. And more Q-var and Albuterol/acapella treamtments.

My day is so....so....DAILY.    I wake up in the middle of the night with: "was I supposed to do it once, twice, three times or four times a day"? Seriously, I have to write it down....but sometimes all of the million and one things make my head swim.

Just need prayers....sorry to vent. God bless you and thank you for remembering us.

Your intentions are in my heart, Nina. Even when you don't post a request, your name will pop into my mind, or Devin will mention Kate, or something else will remind me of you and your lovely family. Thank you for praying for us, too .

Love,

Nina,
I'm so sorry it is all such a struggle right now. They say it only comes in threes, but not always. It may feel like you're treading water, but you're still being lifted and you'll come through all this.

Thank you, too, angels: Rebecca, Maria, Kathleen, Taffy, Ruth, Mary, Anne and Julia (and any others) for your prayers!!!! And praying back for you. Trying to keep my mind focused and lucid to offer things up and not get depressed. Thank you for encouraging me on, knowing there are loving prayer warriors in this struggle. --- My dh really needs them, okay?

Praying, too, Nina, especially for your dh. It is so hard to have so many setbacks all at once. I'll offer my day tomorrow for you and your family.
