Prayers requested - Staying the night in the hospital with my son.
✝️ Prayer Request 🕊️
My middle son is a teen. He has been through so much in his short life. Stroke at birth causing cerebral palsy, rare epileptic conditiion cured by brain surgery many years ago.
And today blood sugar was through the roof. He somehow contracted diabetes, likely type 1. He is not overweight, he is pure blood.
He basically has ptsd from all the procedures and doctor visits. And now he may have to get insulin shots multiple times a day.
It hurts me so bad to watch him go through so much.
Please pray for him.
Thank you.
I am going to try and get some sleep now, will read through any comments in the morning.
Insulin for type one diabetes can be delivered via a small pump worn on the belt. It's done automatically. I'm praying for both of you and the rest of your family and asking God that his angels surround your son to protect him from harm. I'm praying that the Lord touches your son and makes him better and that you receive the strength and blessing to help him get through this. Please Jesus, hear our prayers. Amen.
thank you, we just got the dexcom for blood sugar readings. Once we get his numbers stabilized we will likely get a pump in 3 months. Until then insulin shots.
He is doing good, he had brain damage from the epilepsy so it is hard for him to understand all this. He is a fighter he will get used to all this.
Still praying for a miracle that it is type 2 and he can medicate by pill rather than insulin, but not likely the case without God's intervention.
I'm keeping your son and family in my prayers. God does perform miracles and loves his children. I pray that he aids and comforts your boy and provides all of you the strength and resolve to work through this difficult time. I ask that he blesses the doctors and heathcare providers to guide them in doing everything possible to affect a positive outcome.
