Dear friends
I need to keep asking for your prayers - I know your prayers work miracles. Having the flu and bronchitis and a head cold which is slow to move has just weakened me - and I am so worn out and tired and suffering from anxiety and fear. I can't eat and have lost weight which is a no- no in pregnancy. I just feel so overwhelmed at times - how to look after sick kids, keep the house going, keep school going?
Please pray for physical healing but more for mental healing that I WILL get through this very black period and the anxiety. Especially that peaceful sleep will return. And for the continued safety of our precious little one - that all the illness and medication will not harm her.
And I thank you because I know that so many of you are already praying for me and helping me keep going. I so appreciate all of you - I am not posting at the moment but I pray and offer up for all the intentions.

Oh Marilyn,
I have been there and am right there with you now. I can't imagine enduring this while pregnant. I will be offering up all of my coughing, hacking and anxieties for you today!

Praying Marilyn! Make sure you drink LOTS of fluids since you are pregnant. You don't want to get dehydrated. Did you talk to your doc about antibiotics at this point?? Maybe you can have a friend or an older lady from church come over to watch the kids while you nap in the afternoons? I know this is easier said than done, but it might be worth it. Or, have husband put everyone to bed while you turn in an hour or two early? I think sleep can make a BIG difference when you are pregnant and sick.

Thank you all so much for your kindness and prayers - I am recovering from the virus and things are looking better - but if you could keep praying me through the anxiety I would be so grateful.
