So many Peas are struggling with illness, mental wellness and other hard fought battles. I thought I’d start a thread where we could ask for prayers and positivity for the week. As we read through the thread we can offer up our thoughts and prayers to each Pea and their loved ones who need comfort...
I personally am in a good place right now but my DD is starting a new job this week and I am praying it is a good fit where she can grow and flourish.
Anyone else want to join in?

What an awesome idea!
My mom needs prayer for a situation she is going through (yes, I’m “vague-peaing", but the details cannot be shared.)
Also, my grandmother has been in her new care facility for about a month and a half. Her Dr. said that she is mid-stage Alzheimer’s, and has approximately 6 mo. Just in the last 2 weeks, she has gone downhill pretty quickly. 😢
So, my whole family could use prayer. Thank you so much! ❤️

Thanks so much for this thread, I hated to make an issue of it but we could use some prayer support. My husband is going through chemo right now for prostate cancer that has spread to his bones. His future is very uncertain. After one dose of chemo he is miserable with rash, UTI, blisters and rash in his mouth and throat and a lot of pain. He is 77 years old but acted like a 30 year old until this prostate stuff hit. I wish it were me instead of him and if it was he would be wishing it was him.

I will pray for all of your loved ones and strength to peas as well. My dad fell in the barn, hit his head, and refused to seek medical attention. My mother didn't tell me until next day. I went to their place and seemed ok depite lots of bruising and tissue swelling. Not so bad except he is anticoagulated after a heart valve replacement, bout with atrial flutter, pulmonary embolisms, pneumonia, fluid overload, and UTI. Things going ok but off balance with intraoperative strokes. Minor residual effect with balance issues but still was rough last year. One thing after another. Being fitted for new hearing aid and person told him he needed to be seen since he had blood inside his ear. Won't listen to his dd who is an RN (me) but did finally go in and sure and behold, he has a subdural hematoma. Thank God and his angels watching out for him, he has been ok. Makes me so nervous!

Saying prayers for all.
I keep most things to myself but I have several things I could use prayers for. I hate my new diabetes medicine insurance will not cover anything remotely new that works so I have to take medicine that is mostly covered by insurance and I have awful crashes in my levels now. My husband and I could use some prayers over something we are going through with financial wise. And my uncle has been diagnosed with lung cancer and could use prayers. Thanks everyone it is hard for me to ask for prayers but I really need them.

My 87 you mum could use some prayers and good thoughts. i'm three weeks into a 4 week visit "home." Mum was Energizer bunny the first week I was home, but the last two weeks she has been very ill with shingles. By the time she noticed the rash it was huge and horrific. She's had the week of antiviral meds, but has had no appetite and has lost a fair bit of weight in two weeks. She wasn't big to begin with. She is lying in bed a lot but hardly sleeping. Doc prescribed Trazadone for Mum. She had half doses first two nights and a full dose last night. No help. Her horrible oozing skin is drying up but it's really uncomfortable.
For the first time in my life, I've seen my mum as "old." Last Sept. she fell and broke her hip, and she had recovered so beautifully, was back to driving and cleaning and even going down the steep basement stairs to do her laundry. this has taken so much out of her.
I'm doing tons of cooking while home and my sister lives here in town and will be stopping in daily. I'm really happy to have been here through what is hopefully the worst of it. All prayers and good thoughts most welcome.
And I wish the best for all of you and your loved ones facing challengs. <3

Sending prayers to those have listed needs. I could use some prayers for two friends that had surgery today. In addition, my sister and brother in law are facing some challenges with new medical changes. I live too far away from them to be much help right now. Being so far away, of course, is very stressful for ME too!! Thank you for the prayers!

Praying for all of you - for those issues that are shared and those issues that are hidden away.
As for me, today was round 4 of chemo. I emotionally broke down because I am tired of this; I'm tired of cancer being center stage. (this is my second diagnosis/treatment for ovarian cancer). I'm tired of being tired.

Tomorrow I find out if I have early onset Alzheimer’s. I’m scared I know something is affecting my memory.

My husband of 33 years announced in May 2018 that our marriage was over. I was totally flabbergasted. He moved out in June 2018. We went to marriage counselling for the last year but it didn't seem to go anywhere. It all kind of blew up this July and I haven't seen him in six weeks. I still don't really understand what happened except he doesn't want to be married anymore and would rather live alone than with me. My heart is broken.

I'm keeping you all in my prayers! I go in for a biopsy tomorrow and I'm scared. I was assured multiple times after a mammogram and ultrasound that it was a cyst, but when they drained it and sent it to the lab, it came back suspicious.

I am asking for prayers for my SO's Aunt and Uncle's family. They found Aunt's sister dead (Ann) last Sunday from a fall down the stairs, her funeral is today. Last night the most horrible thing has happened, they lost their first grand baby (Hudson), he was 2 1/2 months old. They need prayers, lots of prayers. I can't even imagine what they are going through right now.
