I know a lot of my followers
also follow
Laurie's blog
Laurie, as many of you know,
has had a lot of trauma in
her life in the past few
years.....a head injury
caused by someone
that left her with
permanent brain damage
and limited sight.
In spite of all that,
she has a positive attitude
and still paints and blogs.
However,
This last bit of news from her
is devastating and I offered
to put out a call for prayer
for her hubby, Garry.
I am linking back to the post
about him here...but his
condition has worsened since
that post.
Please, please, please
take a moment to
lift his name up in prayer...
asking for a successful surgery
and a calm spirit for Laurie.
She is scared and
beside herself with
anxiety.
Thank you so much.
I know it will bring her
some peace.
If you have a moment
pop by her blog and
let her know we are
all supporting her.
Thank you guys-
you're the best!

Garry had another episode last night, pulse went crazy blood pressure 210 over 110, we went to emerge and they kept him, not sure whats going to happen, things are unstable, you are so kind , he is the tough guy act ALL the time, a call for prayers would be much appreciated, thank you so much.I believe in the power of prayer and I must admit I just was so exhausted today that I just asked the Lord to take over because I have all my trust in him.

praying right now, and on my way to her blog to let her know she is loved and we are praying! Trusting in the Lord to carry her and Garry through this ordeal!
Of course prayers said. Hope he gets well soon!
I hardly ever check my Facebook wall. Maybe once or twice a week if I think about it. I looked today and saw the call for prayers for Laurie and her husband. I am so grateful I saw the messages so I can send prayers her way. Thanks for posting about this too. I wasn't aware because I am so bad about keeping up with my comments. My heart is in my feet.
Oh no, on my way and lots of prayers.
Diane, I know that Garry and Laurie will be alright. We serve a good and gracious God! I am praying for them both!!
Hello, I went and sent good wishes and will continue to send them in my heart x
Oh No! The last I read from her things were stable.
Such scary news now. Thanks for the update Nana D.
Lifting them up in prayer right now.

I am in prayer at this moment, God is faithful to to help us when we ask Him He loves us so very much....

Diana: How wonderful for you to do this. I can't believe the sorrow this poor woman has faced. My prayers go out to her and her husband and family. Any sorrow is hard to take but she certainly has had more than her share..Judy
Positive thoughts and lots of prayer being sent there way!
Oh my gosh, how traumatic. Thank you, Diana. They both need some desperate prayers!
Diana, definitely prayers going up for Laurie's husband. I'll let her know, too. You are such a thoughtful person to do this, Diana. xo Nellie
Will do!
I left a comment for Laurie as you asked and I am thankful that you told me about her. I will pray for her husband and for her.
Thanks again, Dear Diana!
Love,
Kay
Bless you for being the prayer warrior that you are, sweet Diana. I left Laurie a message and said a prayer for both her and Garry. Thank you for letting us all know she needed us. :)
xoxo laurie
Diana
I consider Laurie one of my favorite blogging pals too.
I'll definitely be praying fr her hubby and her.
Thanks for keeping us updated.
Hi Diana, you are a true friend indeed and I think that it is wonderful that you would open up your heart and bring Laurie forward for prayer. She is also one of my blogging friends and my heart goes out. Of course I will put her and her husband in my prayers. This is another reason why blogging has become so important and excellent . . . the exchange of love, prayer, and encouragement. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Also in regard to your thoughtful comment left on my blog:
I am overjoyed that my bedroom re-do is so popular. I had a lot of fun doing it, but it was a lot of work and the older I get the longer it takes to re-coop afterwards. You know, by the time I was finished with the room, I was behind on the laundry, and cleaning. By the time I got all that caught up I was dead to the world. I have this strong willpower that keeps me going until I get everything completed, but my body is getting older that my will power. It's hard to make the changes that are necessary as we age. Slowing down has never been in my vocabulary . . . but my Steve is trying to put it there, LOL. Have a wonderful week, Connie :)
I am heading over now to let her know that I am praying hard for him.
Said another prayer for them, just now.
hugs and prayers to them both!
