Thursday's Prayer Request

2:15 p.m.

Please pray. . .

Susan is really stressed out right now. She has been concerned about David's hernia, and he hasn't been able to poop since yesterday even though
she's given him two suppositories. He's uncomfortable and fussy and not sleeping well. The hernia's getting darker and a little bigger.

David had an appointment set for tomorrow with the urologist, but since Susan was concerned about it, she called and he said he could work David in today. Susan was in her pajamas with David asleep on her chest when she had to throw everything together and get out the door really fast to drive downtown by herself.

She had to pack the diaper bag, but she didn't know what to put in it since this is the first time out she's been out by herself with David. She had planned to be able to sit back with him tomorrow and watch and take care of him, but now she's got to figure out where doctor's office is in downtown Nashville, navigate through the parking garages, meet David's needs . . . all of which are stressful on their own. If you've ever had to do any of the above, you can imagine how stressful it is with all the variables converging at once.

So Susan is asking for prayer today. She needs prayer for peace and clarity for her and prayer for David as well. He's not sleeping well (which means neither is she), he's uncomfortable and gassy, he hasn't been able to poop (which is, of course, no fun), and the hernia seems to be getting worse.

Thank you for continuing to pray!
