PLEASE PRAY
Today is Blue Monday and our gracious host is Sally at, Smiling Sally.
Please visit Sally for lots of wonderful blue.
My weekend in Charlotte with my longtime friend was wonderful. Her son is doing well after three plus weeks in the hospital with a serious case of Swine flu. Thank you for all of your kind comments.
Now I am asking You to pray for my cousin's daughter who is very ill and probably will not recover. I received a call from my cousin last night. Her daughter's name is Jera and she has been suffering for many years and is on dialysis, Her vital organs are shutting down. She had cancer and only has one kidney. She is only 42 years old. My cousin Marilyn and her husband are suffering such sadness right now.
Thank you my friends for your prayers on a time of need.
I am so thankful for my blogging friends.
Blessings and love,
Jeanne
Jera, her parents and all who love her are in my prayers.

Oh Jeanne, I'm so sorry to hear this news and will pray for peace and comfort for all of you.
I'm so glad that you enjoyed your visit to see your friend and that her son is doing well. Three weeks is a long time to be in the hospital!
I hope you have a blessed Thanksgiving Jeanne.

I'm also very sorry to hear of this sad news, especially at this time of year...I've lost so many family members at Christmas time, its difficult at any time, but now seems even more so. I will pray for a miracle for Jera...whatever happens, I pray for God's presence and comfort in the middle of this storm, and that He will see this precious family through it.
Wishing you many Thanksgiving blessings,
Mary

Happy Blue Monday and have a Happy Thanksgiving.

Hi Jeanne, I will remember her in my prayers.
Today I am going to visit my girlfriend Gloria from High School. She called me and said her breast cancer has spread to her brain. I am in a fog this morning. I can't help to think, do you pray for a miracle or is it God's will to take her home? So sad.
This is definitely a Blue Monday for me...
Hugs, Ann
