Request prayer for our Daughter Pamela. She has type 1 diabetes and disabling migraine flare ups. Thank you.

Moyra wrote yesterday "Things have been very challenging here but the Lord is helping us through. Since starting this last round of chemo I have been very poorly so a decision has been made to stop the treatment to give my body some time to recover. I am currently receiving support from LOROS and the Palliative nurses who are helping me to cope with the pain. Kate is doing so well running our home and loving me through the bleak nights when I am vomiting, what a blessing she is. She is tired and emotional but determined to honour the Lord throughout."

Let us support Moyra and Kate as we pray for the Lord's healing touch and for an overwhelming sense of His peace and comfort.

Message from Courtney:
The medics have found out that I am very anaemic due to poor kidney function and my kidney are not producing a hormone that instructs, the body to make more blood. This explains why I feel so tired, have poor concentration, poor thinking skills, etc .
To increase the red blood cell production, they gave me 250 mls iron solution intravenously. Wow Within 1hr I felt better and the overwhelming tiredness was gone. I felt as bright as a button. After 48 hrs the benefits of the iron infusion will have diminished. So I have these options according to the Medics;
i) Blood transfusion
ii)dialysis
ii) In the long term a Kidney transplant.
I am hopefully going to be discuss these with Registrar. However we have a fourth option ask God, entreat God. Let us ask the God of the impossible to do the un,- thinkable, to the glory of God .
I would appreciate your prayers
