My first prayer request..

Well ladies.. I kind of debated posting this because I wasn't sure I wanted to share personal stuff.. but you gotta start sometime, right? Here goes..

Tomorrow early morning, I go in for a colonoscopy and GERD. I've had recurring issues with my bowels for several months now ranging from bleeding large amounts to sloughing off the lining of my intestines; to very frequent watery stool. I'm having absorbtion issues and therefore losing my hair, my skin is cracking and bleeding, and I am getting rashes that won't heal. I have a rough time eating much, and I also need my gallbladder removed (which will come later). At any rate, sometimes you smile and sometimes you just fake a smile, know what I mean?

I am asking for prayer that a resolution is brought before me. An answer that at least will give me somewhere to go from here. I am also asking for support in general. My life is sadly lacking friendship, other than dh, for quite awhile now; and you ladies have come to mean a lot to me in this short time because of that.

Thank you.

Oh, FC....I am so glad you shared with us. I will be praying for you in all areas you specified. I am also so glad you found us at the HS Spot...you will always get plenty of support and love here from us!

As far as friends go, I understand. It is shocking to me that "cyberspace" can provide such a "real" place to share together an become good friends...but this place certainly has! I wish we did live closer though, it would be so nice to be able to just give a hug when it is needed!

Let us know how it goes and know that you are being lifted up!

I am sorry that sounds horrible, I have gallbladder issues and that is terrible in itself.

I will pray for you

I can't say I know the answers, but I do know who does. I will certainly be lifting you up to Him.
