Prayers Needed For My Husband !!!

I just got off the phone with my husband's doctor less than an hour ago. My husband had an cat scan yesterday of his upper body. He has multiple medical issues. His emphysema is very severe, but we knew this, and expected a bad result on this.
He has a 1 1/2 centimeter spot on his liver. Don't know what it is, but it is not good.
He has an aneurysm of the main blood vessel going to the heart. The doctor said it is 4.1 in size. At 5.0 immediate surgery is done as it could burst. My husband was born with a heart murmur, and I wonder if this weakening could have been there all along.

I am more concerned with the aneurysm than anything else. I know this thing could blow out, and my husband would never be able to make it to the hospital in time. I asked the doctor about a followup test for the aneurysm, and also about the spot on the liver. The doctor said he will order a retest in 6 MONTHS !!! So, the doctor will not do a blasted thing, but let my husband walk around with a time bomb in his chest, besides his lungs going kaput and God knows what is up with his liver.

I am doing my best to hold myself together. I just told my oldest daughter.She is not taking this well. I will tell my middle daughter tomorrow. My youngest, who is the apple of her Dad's eye, is in California on vacation with several of her school friends. She will not be back until wednesday morning. I do not know if I should call her, or just hold off until she gets back.

PLEASE pray for my husband !!! His name is Roy.

Sending LOTS of prayers for your husband Roy!

6 months...ugh, wtf?! Not right, so not right. : (

Personally, I would hold off telling your youngest until she gets home. Let her enjoy the rest of her vaca as telling her won't change anything other than worrying her for the remainder of her trip. That is, of course, if things stay status quo until then and nothing gets worse for your husband prior to her return.

My friend, you really are a TIGER!

Keep that faith and strength up. Your family will always be in my prayers.

:s27lovefriends:

Dear Heavenly Father , we lift Tiger and all her family we ask the enemy have no power in this and healing of body , soul and Spirit , give Tiger all she needs to get through all they face , help faith only grow and keep her strong and her beautiful Spirit in Your hands in Jesus name we pray amen

I need prayers today as I head home and do not want to. Many do not have anything physically , my home was not touched but my Spirit was. Pray as I go to a place that told me I do not understand the bible and did not receive messages from the Lord by my own Pastor. I woke thinking, I have a home but what is that to go home to if the body of believers think I am lost. No wonder my book stayed hidden there. Not sure how to handle this, but just want what God wants.
I would have rather lost my house and than go to a place that thinks I do not know the Lord. I am sadder today than anytime in my lifenot because of the floods but because my community does not understand Who and why the floods. Please pray for them and me...

God is above and below and beside you and your community to help you get through this. Know that we are all praying for you, and the best is yet to come!

Thank you and I understand they did not mock me but God , . I live in a place that thinks most of the beginning of the bible is not relevant today. My Pastor told me as your Pastor I need to correct you, he is not my Pastor today, God has and will always be my number one Pastor... I ask any of you under this kind of teaching erase all you have been taught , go to the Bible as a child and read ask God to teach you. If we do not understand the storm Harvey then we will not understand things to come and keep making sheet rock number one in our lives...flood after flood

Sending you love & prayers GFG

I will pray for your husband and you and your entire family.
If you need help, I am two hours away. God bless, Tiger, praying for resilience and strength for you.

Stand with God as you always have and believe as we all know you do. There is only one Shepard as it was in the beginning and always will be. You always have our prayers and our love. God bless.

Prayers and hugs to all !

My husband is scheduled for a contrast cat scan of his abdomen
next Wednesday. This was scheduled before the thoracic cat scan was even thought of.He has diverticulitis, Barrett's, and acid reflux, but there might be something else going on with his gut.
I have tried talking to my husband about everything going on, and urged him to get a 2nd opinion on the aneurysm, but he said that the cat scan of his abdomen is going to show more bad things, so why bother. He has a total fatalistic attitude about all this.

I am not going to tell the youngest right now, who is on vacation in California with her school friends. I will tell her sisters not to say anything to her, as I will when she gets back Wednesday morning.Her flight is supposed to land at 1am Wednesday morning, and she has to be at work at 8am. If she is too worn out, I will talk to her when she gets home and rests a bit after work.

This all is very serious. I will try to talk to my husband again later today, but he is very hard headed. Roy's 65th birthday is next week Friday, the 8th. The way I see things right now, it is day to day here. I honestly don't know if Roy will make it to his birthday.He is really doing badly all around.

Roy is estranged from his 3 children from previous marriages. Two of his ex's are deceased, one from Lupus and the other one we do not know what the cause was, as she had a multitude of medical problems.His 1st wife is still alive. I think he should contact his children. I don't think he will, but if he tells one of his brothers what is going on, they will undoubtedly contact them on his behalf.

I am walking around in a fog over here, and it is hard to keep myself together. I am not surprised about the lungs or liver, as Roy has been a heavy smoker and drinker since he was a teenager, but the aneurysm just has me floored. I had 2 friends die young from aneurysms, one at 47, and the other one at 50.

Go see an energy healer. You will be surprised.

He needs to quit smoking and drinking or he's going to die. Sorry.

I know this, and so does he.

Tiger, I pray for you. You have had so much to cope with in the last few months. Try and keep strong.

Focus as best you can. What is happening to Roy is beyond your control. If he's still drinking and smoking there is so little you can do but pray for him. Be his companion and best friend as much as he lets you be, but he has life-long addictions about which he has to decide.

We pray to Our Father for strength and healing for both of you with the hope that He guides the doctors in treating your husband and your husband lets them treat him.

Take care of your heart also, Tiger, I'm so sorry you are going through another situation of sorrow and challenges.

God bless you. You know how to reach me if you need me. Love for you.

It would be interesting to know just what exactly it was that he felt you needed to be corrected on.

I'm surprised both that this didn't happen to you before AND that you didn't see it coming.



Pastors are trained and learn specific doctrines of the seminary / school that they attend. After that, through the course of their career, their personal takes on those doctrines can change, sometimes leading to splinter groups. It's been happening for millenia.

The same thing can happen with members of the congregation such as yourself.

A growing contingency of clergy are accepting various relatively "watered down" doctrinal theories such as Bible relevancy to even whether or not Jesus actually existed.

How do you think the same-sex marriage thing took hold?

And what does the "average Believer" see on TV?

All you need to do is to watch some of the so-called documentaries concerning the Bible etc... that have been shown over the last 25 years done by Discovery Channel, National Geographic, BBC Nova and the others like them. Pretty much ALL of the scholastic "theologions" featured on them all come from liberal schools handing out various degrees. And their "scholarly comments" during those shows are as wishy-washy as the schools they got their degrees from.

You NEVER see anyone who teach in places like the Moody Bible Institute, Dallas Theological Seminary (Chuck Swindoll), The Master's Seminary (John MacArthur) or any other Bible-based schools.

MAYBE it's time for you to find a different church.

Praying for Roy, dear Tiger

Psalm 91


peace

Keep your beautiful LIGHT shining, dear Sister

Hugs to you all !!!

I tried talking again with my husband, and it is falling on deaf ears. There is nothing else I can do but just be there for him. He has chosen his path, with the addiction to pills, booze,his smoking, and his poor diet. I have tried so hard over the years to get him to seek help, to no avail.

When he is sober, he is an absolutely delightful person to be with. He has raised my children, and has been an excellent father to them, overall. We have been together for 19 years, and married for 17 years.

He changed a lot when he got seriously hurt at work, and left permanently disabled 11 years ago. His whole outlook on life soured. He went from a healthy young man to a bitter man. He seemed to sorta level out a bit, when he was offered a sit down security guard job at his workplace, when his disabilities prevented him from ever working as an electrician again. But when the workplace folded 6 1/2 years ago, he just went to pieces mentally and physically.He went on disability, as emphysema kicked in on top of everything else. Everything started going downhill as he tried to drown his private hell with pills washed down with beer. The verbal abuse towards me started, and even had a couple of minor physical confrontations. There was nothing I could do to try to ease things for him. Even my deep love for him didn't work.

So now I am in the middle of a waiting game. What else is going to turn up next in his growing list of illnesses? With the aneurysm, I have a absolute horrible fear of just finding him dead. If that thing blows, he will be dead in a minute. Even though we have a hospital less than a mile away, he would not make it there.

Sorry for my rant.

Thank you, Sister in Christ !!! That has given me comfort.

I am home have a great gas story but to tired , love yall

Let it out sweetie, you need to. We are here for you always.

:s27heart7:

Get some rest my friend.

I am such at a loss as to what to do. My husband knows his days are numbered. He was going over the bills this afternoon, seeing how quickly he can pay them off.:( I am grateful we do not have any real kind of credit card or other debt, just some medical bills.

I have not told the middle daughter yet, and I am not going to say a word to the youngest until she gets home Wednesday.
He has not said anything to anyone else, but I did tell a couple of friends today. I will tell my brother and my mother on Sunday.
