• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

They weighed Mary when we arrived at the hospital this-afternoon
up 3 pounds on Friday's reading :thumbsup:

Mary, starts her chemo this-week
Her heart and kidneys
have been flagged, as good to go with the chemo
6 visits and three weeks between each session
and tablets x2 daily in-between visits

All the possible side-effects were mentioned
and we were advised, on 'what to do'
including ...re: some 'life-threatening' side-effects

Hey ho, we could 'slip and break our neck'.... at anytime
Wait and see what-happens < isn't it ?

:)

Prayer is the glue that holds us together.


:amen: Norah Sis' \o/




My dear friend's husband, Wayne, is going in for a ICD procedure on January 21st.
My dear friend has given me permission to ask for prayer for him
for the procedure to go well and for his healing.
Thank you for your prayers in advance.:prayer:


:prayer: for abovementioned intention

Lord we :groupray:
for this intention
for the procedure,
for Wayne's healing
and for his family
:pray:
Hear our prayers Lord,
enable the surgeon's skills, to affect the best procedural results
and effective healing for Wayne, post-op
and strengthen his family as they await the 'news of success'
In Jesus Name we :pray:

:amen:

We are just back from the hospital

We got a phone call from the ward this morning
Our appointment was brought-forward three hours
So, instead of beginning chemo treatment at 3.30pm
it was begun just before 1pm and we were clear by 4.30pm
and, out of the car-park by 5pm

1 treatment behind us and five left to go
The anti-nausea drugs appear to be working [in Mary]
We know that her immune system [defences] will be lowered
throughout the treatment, and it will be necessary
for Mary to shield herself, from persons that are obviously 'poorly'
especially in crowded places

So far so good, :thumbsup:
Mary, is showing no signs, of reduced energy levels
and I :pray:
that this 'tolerance' to the treatment continues throughout the whole course

:amen:

Praying that you know peace in the midst of this storm, in Jesus Name.

:amen: Praise The Lord \o/ for that I am, blessed! with His 'peace'
God bless you, to your measure
:pray:
:amen:

Dave ~ Continued prayers for you and Mary :hug:
God bless you :crossrc:

Thank you Sis' Gail
With our phone ~a veritable 'hotline'
I turned off the heating 'phew'

There was sufficient 'excess' thermal energy
radiating from the phone cable [throughout the house] :)
Family and friends in the UK and 'Brenda' over there in Ontario, Canada

Brenda sent Mary 'a flower gift' via 'Interflora'
a beautiful gift indeed :thumbsup:

Is it me ? or, can anyone-else see 'angels' and 'butterflies' in the blooms ?

Mary was quite overcome [with emotion]
when I walked in with it, having collected it
from a neighbour, with-whom it had been, left
It took, but, a minute, or less, to open up the wrapping

We 'both' had wet eyes, after, I had read the wishes that were written, on the card


We are 'blessed' Lord, your 'love', it grows here \o/
:amen:

Hello Dave,


I only just came on the forum a while ago and learned about Mary. I have already advised Kathy (my wife) and we are joining in prayer with you. May the good Lord keep His hand on the two of you! He is able in all situations.


Thank you Brother John :hug:

:amen:
So far so good... :thumbsup:

Mary appears to have taken
the FIRST of the treatments, VERY WELL
ie: None, of the published 'side-effects', has yet raised it's head

Please, do not forget, to thank Kathy for her prayers for us
Matthew 18: 19-20 (NIV)
He hears us and yes, even the groanings of our hearts
:amen:

Your Bro'

dave
