A new prayer request.......

[louisemnnpls]

Our grandaughter has been sick for the last two weeks. Today she had abdominal xrays and tonight, is undergoing an ultra sound. We would appreciate your prayers very much.

Thank you so much,

Louise M

Dear Louise,
I will be praying for your granddaughter for sure. PRAYER WORKS!! My great nephew was diagnosed with lymphoma about 10 years ago. He had grape-like BUNCHES of lumps on both sides of his neck and in his armpits. We had EVERYONE praying for him, and by the time of his first appointment with the oncologist (about 2 weeks later), all traces of the cancer had miraculously disappeared. So I know firsthand that prayer DOES work, and miracles DO happen. God bless, and keep us posted.
Love, Kathy

Hello Louise,

I also believe in miracles. Hopefully the ultra sound will show the doctors what they need to know and it will be an easy fix.

Sending pray and hugs your way.

You have all my prayers & best wishes for a speedy recovery.

[Gitchigumee]

Done...

I always find comfort at times when I feel so helpless, in turning it over into God's hands.

I'll keep your beautiful granddaughter in my prayers.

Let us know how it goes ok?

[louisemnnpls]

Thank you to everyone for your kind thoughts and your prayers. They are very much appreciated. We will keep you posted. The waiting is the hard part. But, we, too, believe in miracles.

Thank you

Gary and Louise

Hang in there. It's 10 times worse on the parents, and 100 times worse on the grandparents. Kids are tough. Keep the faith, and rest assured that by this time tomorrow, you'll have 20 more people praying for her restored health.

[RM]

Kids are tough.

Amen

[Rainbow Trout]

May our prayers shower down upon your grandaughter tonight. We know of a physician greater than all who hears every prayer called in her name.
May he bring comfort and healing to her at this very moment, and peace to your family.

[SilverHeels]

Prayers from this group can be pretty strong stuff. Your little one is in good hands, Mouse.
Blessings from across the Pond.

Healing thoughts from Toronto are on their way..
let us know what happens...

[louisemnnpls]

To everyone,

Thank you all for your prayers and your encouraging words. We appreciate it so much....
more that you can know..... It's at times like this that one gets to learn what is really important in life, that friends are invaluable, and that there is a Physician greater than any on earth. You are so right.

Thank you so much,

Louise

[Borderstone]

I pray for God and his Angels to watch over her and make her well once again.

[Kerstin]

Your granddaughter will be in our prayers. Hope she gets better soon.

[Jesse Joe]

Thinking of you and your grandaughter Louise, hoping everything will be just fine. :)

[louisemnnpls]

Borderstone, Kerstin and Jesse Joe, (and everyone else who has sent get well wishes),
thank you SO much, It means so much right now. We all appreciate it. She feels better right now, but we still haven't heard what they have found on the cat scan. (sp?) Hopefully by tomorrow, we will hear something. Will keep you posted. Thank you again.

Louise, being a grandfather myself I realize just how precious these children are to us and how difficult a time you all must be going through. I pray she will be ok and come through with a clean bill of health. Sincerely, Ron Jones.

[louisemnnpls]

Good News! We had good news today. According to the doctors there is nothing to worry about regarding our grandaughter. Although they thought that they detected sometime on the xrays, when they did the cat scan, they couldn't find anything. So we'll see what else they decide, but it is definitely looking good.

Thank you all, for your prayers and good wishes. They mean SO much!!!! What a wonderful group this is!

It's always a relief when they say nothing showed up..my daughter has had a couple of CT scans and an MRI and the anxiety while waiting for results was unbearable. Hope all goes well from here on in!

[Jesse Joe]

Really happy to hear that good news Louise.

All the best,

~ Jesse ~ :)

Found out today that our daughter's doctor is away on a 10 day vacation and it is another doctor who believes that there is nothing much to worry about. He said our daugther and son-in-law could page the other doctor, but they decided against that. So, guess that we will have to wait 7 more days. Maybe we are going to the wrong clinic. Somehow this just doesn't sound quite right.

[louisemnnpls]

Re: New Prayer Request ~
Oh....everything is changed again. Tomorrow our grandaughter and her parents are going into the doctor at 9 am. Our daughter just called. She said that the doctor said he can't tell them anything over the phone, so they have to come in to talk to him. I don't know if that sounds really ominous or not.

I WILL NOT think of this as ominous. Will keep thinking in the vein that you all have been replying. Thank you all again. Your thoughts and prayers mean more than you can ever know. Thank you

Hi Louise,

Which doctor is she going to? I think I have lost track.

We have been through some scares with our grandchildren too (we have 9).

I am sending a lot of positive energy to you and your family.

DSR

[louisemnnpls]

DSR~
I think that I have lost track, too. The regular doctor is still on vacation, so this is just a doctor that is filling in, but out daughter and son-inlaw want to talk to someone in person, as no one will tell them anything over the phone because of the "right to privacy law." (Is that what it is called?) Thank you so much for listening.....I'm sure I'm not making much sense. LOL :)

[SilverHeels]

Louise, keep us posted. We are all thinking of you and your family and especially your little one. Blessings to all.

[charlene]

Keep us posted after the doc consult...

[jj]

all the very best for the child's health, and to wee ones worldwide, even the monstrous ones are angels in disguise, don't let the ups+downs of the waiting game get all too down

[Gitchigumee]

That is ridiculous to leave them hanging like that overnight. We all have a tendency in situations like this to think the absolute worst. What you all must be going through...

Now, let's all step up our prayers for the little girl and remember that faith, hope and love abide, but the greatest of these is love. And where Grandparents are concerned, there is no shortage of that.

Hang in there Louise!

Gitchigumee,

Yes, today they did apologize for all that they put everyone through. It was a new doctor, and she said that all the xrays and the cat scans had been read, and everything is OK.
Why they said they'd have to wait for 10 days one can only guess. But it does seem pretty heartless from this end of the situation.

Thank you everyone for all your wishes and all your prayers. We all appreciate them so much! So sorry to put everyone else through all this, too. Still think that Lightfoot people are the best there are.:)

Louise

[Dream Street Rose]

Louise,

You should not apologize because you have done nothing wrong. As for me, I am always glad to listen and be positive when someone else needs help. Hopefully as the holidays approach and you all spend time together this bad time will be forgotten.

Enjoy the journey of life. :)

DSR

[SilverHeels]

Good to hear, Louise. Tell the little one she has a lot of auntie and uncles here wishing her well. :)

[charlene]

Good News..!!
I know from experience as do many others that sometimes the docs/staff etc. are overworked and can seemingly let things slip. To those who are waiting it is a hard time and creates a lot of anxiety but I'm sure had there been a serious issue you would have been notified immediately. Thankfully that was not the case.

Char

[louisemnnpls]

Thank you, DSR, Silverheels, Char, and EVERYONE who has written before, in regards to this thread. I can't relay to you all just how much it has meant. Just saw our grandughter this morning and that precious little face seemed much more precious than before. I pray that this Holiday Season, we will all try to fill it with happiness and joy, and to really appreciate that we have each other. All the riches in the world cannot make up for one relationship with a loved one.

~Peace to all....and thank you again~

[Gitchigumee]

HALLELUIAH AND PRAISE BE TO GOD!

I pray that this Holiday Season, we will all try to fill it with happiness and joy, and to really appreciate that we have each other. All the riches in the world cannot make up for one relationship with a loved one.
