Dear 4 Real Ladies,

I know I'm only newly registered here but I'm asking prayers for my husband. He has suffered depression for some time now and it's reaching crunch time    

Please pray in particular for his protection over this weekend and for the appointments I've put in motion for next week.

By the grace of God he was received into the church this past Easter Vigil and I'm praying that he can seek solace and hope in our Lord in the midst of his sufferings.

Thank you all so much in advance for any prayers you can offer.

God Bless,

Marcia

Many prayers. I know what it's like to suffer depression. I pray for our Lady's Mantle around your husband and you! (Welcome to the boards!)

Deepest thanks for your prayers so far ladies, I'll update later....
Thought we were making rational progress today at an appointment, but just 5 minutes ago after dh came home from work, poor dh defence mechanisms are breaking down and things have done a complete backflip....rang his Dr urgently and informed him of situation... dh has left the house and all that I can do now is pray for his protection tonight....
my emotional state has taken a battering but I'm so thankful that I got to Mass last night.
God is good, he won't abandon my family.

God Bless,
Marcia

Some relief...Dh rang his Mother and informed her where he was staying tonight and that he will call me tomorrow.
I've made every decision out of love and concern for my dh and I think these reactions are surfacing because I am wanting to establish some boundaries for his wellbeing and that of our family.
I know he is hurting, he even told me today before our appointment that he is sorry for what he is putting me through.

God Bless, St Joachim and St Anne pray for us!

Marcia

Dh has informed me that he will attend next weeks appointment. Praying that a renewed sense of peace will prevail until then.
Fortunately the children have been protected from this fall out and I'm really praying that this is the rock bottom so to speak.
I am so grateful for all your prayers, they have truly been such a comfort.
God Bless,
Marcia

I'm praying for your family at this time, Marcia! There is no doubt in my mind that the family is under attack as it has never been before! I am placing my prayers for your family, and all families, at Our Lady's feet and asking her to offer protection and guidance to you, your husband, and your marriage.
