  • 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.

Our baby boy has a perianal abscess - we got it drained a week ago by the surgeon, but its flared up again.

We are all exhausted from lack of sleep and a gruelling 4-5 baths a day regime and antibiotics every 6 hours. Its monday morning, I haven't slept since 3am and I need to go to work today. Wife and I are starting to snipe at each other and we are both worried sick. She had a migrane yesterday, thankfully I was home to help.

Please pray that the abscess will heal and that it won't develop into a fistula, which will mean invasive surgery. Please pray for joy and patience in us, regardless of circumstances

:help:

Praying for you...we just got back from church and our pastor was talking about joy and happiness. He said Joy is inside us no matter what the circumstances and happiness is as a result of our circumstances. As Christians we have Joy because we know that no matter what the circumstances...God is in control.

Lord I pray for Gnine and his family, please be with his wife as she looks after their baby, please bring relief and healing to their baby. Please be with Gnine at work today, help him to rest in the knowledge that You are in control. Lord, I pray that they will all get a good rest/sleep tonight. In Jesus Name Amen

he's about four and a half months - we rushed him to the paedatric surgeon today (I took half a day off work) and discovered another abscess, this could have been what was hurting him so much last night. The surgeon said we might need to be bathing him for months.


Here is a pic, poor bubby. His name is Sean.
