    I have 2 requests so I'm putting them together for the sake of less typing on my part.
    First my SO and his family. His grandfather hasn't been doing well for a while. He has been living on 20% of his heart for over a year. He has less than 20% of his heart working now. He is too weak for the drs to be able to do anything w/ his pacemaker and they have told him that honestly the pacemaker is the only thing keeping him alive w/ frequent shockings. 3 days ago they called the family together and told them he has 2-3 days left is the best they can give him. He is on hospice and at home and has been for around 1-2 months now. Please pray for him and his family as they deal with this. I know God can do miracles, I've seen it in my life first hand. It's a miracle he has made it htis long. My SO is taking it very hard as he is very close to his grandfather and I don't know how to help him. Pray for the 2 of us as we deal with this as well.

    My second request is for me. I've had a horrible cough for over a week now. I am trying super hard not to go to a dr because I can't afford it right now. I have no insurance and am just not able to afford a dr visit if I can help it. It seems to be getting better most the time but then I go into coughing spells that literally leave me on my knees gasping for breath. Pray I get feeling better and that dd doesn't get whatever it is because every cough seems to turn really bad for her and we wind up at the ER because it effects her asthma to the point her inhalor won't work. Pray for her to stay healthy please and me to get better.

    Thanks

    Thanks everyone. Everytime the phone rings SO holds his breath and hesitates to answer it. My mom wound up taking me to the ER yesterday because I was coughing so badly I literally can't catch my breath and have to drop everything to concentrate on breathing. Found out I have bronchitis. The dr and nurse both felt it is unlikely pneumonia and that the treatment would be the same so we didn't do xrays. Since I'm allergic to zythromax they gave me a generic ammoxicilan/pennicilan type drug that is cheap so thankfully i won';t likely pay an arm and a leg for this but you never know. Keep praying for us. Thanks so much

    I hope your antibiotic works fast so you can feel better. Take care of yourself and know that you and your family are in our prayers. Sorry so much is hitting you at one time.

    Same thing for me last fall but I was put on a Ventolin inhaler to treat the breathless symptoms. Hope it resolves quickly for you.

    Praying for all of you
