CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

isaiah5213 said:this keeps getting better!! lol!!
i found out today that i have yet another kiddo w/strep--the doc thinks--again, the test was negative, but the symtoms are there... lol!! i laugh, cuz' this one is one of my teens.. she's easier to deal w/then my two 6 year olds and my 8 year old when they get sick! lol! ...
i know you guys were told about 2, i think of my kiddos w/strep.. i have a high needs child (6 yrs old) that if the congestion doesn't go away in 2 months, they will have to do surgery... i am just saying it to pray...
when i first found out it was a huge deal to me, and i was really emotional, and scared, and really upset, because i thought i had done something, or not done something, for my poor child to keep having such big lung and brain issues... but since, i have prayed about it and really been honest, not guilty w/myself. i MADE him take every single thing of medication they gave me to give him. i MADE him take fluids fluids fluids. i took him to a total of 4 doctors over the past year, and still will be a 5th if they say "surgery".. cuz' i want to check every avenue possible before i fall for the "quick fix"... i have prayed and fasted, fasted and prayed. i started w/prayer, i will end in prayer. and all my panic was just showing that i was not having faith in God's plan for us. i really believe that this is part of a plan i can't see the results to yet... and i am so much more at peace with the whole thing than i was a week ago today.
the rest of the children donot know how serious of a condition one of my children has.. they just know that he keeps getting extremely high fevers. and right now, that is all they need to know.
but again, i know this note sounds dramatic, and that's not why i wrote it.. i wrote it to say how much better i feel! how much more in God's hands i really believe i am, then when this whole thing started!
God bless you
..........yes, it's true that when you surrender your child into God's care when they are ill, you will know a peace which you just didn't have before. 
We have had serious childhood illnesses with our kids (rheumatic fever and leukaemia) and I feel for you, as there are times when you will feel the strain and want to stagger under the weight of it all. But God is good and He is a faithful God and He will walk with you every step of the way. It's ok to cry, often, and to pray the same prayers over and over.....I did, and God surely heard and answered them.
There is a plan and it will become clear over time, as the one He had for us gradually became clear. And it was a good plan.....one which profited us greatly individually and as a family. I pray you will hold fast to Jesus and let His Spirit lead you on through all of this.
May you be blessed..........may you continue to put your trust in God and let Him carry you through this. I pray for the best possible outcome for your children's illnesses, as we were blessed to have for our children.
