Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
I have not posted in GC before. Is this where an urgent prayer request should be posted? Because they seem to all be in other places. My precious friend's husband is barely alive due to hosp incompetence. Went in for an emerg surgery on Mar 1. Hospital PUT TUBE IN WRONG AND PUT 1 LITRE OF FLUID IN EACH LUNG. Drained one and say couldn't drain the other?! He was unconscious for 5 days and took 3 days to wake up. is now in ICU "for 7 days" then supposedly rehab. My friend will sue but wants to get him home first and not take aggressive action while John is at their mercy. Please ask the Lord to protect John and restore his strength and his mind... he is now completely confused. As happens from anesthesia. He needs help finding his way back. You could never find a man with a more loving heart. We need him. Need the prayers of the faithful. Thank you frens
Prayers being sent. The Lord will provide a healing. Amen.
Heavenly Father, We thank you for Your loving care of John, and we ask for Your healing touch on his lungs and on his mind. We pray for strength and comforting for his loved ones while they wait during his healing journey. We ask that You restore him to good health, and allow him to serve you in all gratitude giving You all the glory, honor, praise. We ask these things in the name of Your Son and our Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
Amen.
Will go and pray for John. 🙏🏻. What is intended for evil will be turned good.
Dear Lord, please look after John. Provide his loving family with guidance and strength to see him through to good health. We love You very much. Amen.
It might be better to make a separate post for a prayer request, anon.
Also, tell your friend not to sign anything the hospital may ask her to (unless it's discharge papers or something standard and easy-to-understand) until she has a legal person review it - especially if it has to do with liability. She can just tell them she's too upset to adequately review documents at this time.
Also, she should check to see what kind of pain reliever(s) they're giving him in the ICU. I had a loved one who they gave Dilaudid to that made them "completely confused" while in ICU and had them choose a different pain medication, made all the difference. The anesthesia can make one foggy until it clears out of the system as well.
Heavenly Father, we come to You today in prayer for HighCountryAZ's friend's husband, John, who has been through recent suffering and is in need of Your healing. Lord, please heal this man completely and make him whole again. Please protect this man from incompetent or malicious individuals as he continues along his path back towards good health. Give John strength in both body and mind and also bestow Your protection, grace and blessings on John's loved ones as they help him back to good health. We thank You, Lord, for Your love and mercy and for Your many blessings, in Jesus' loving name. 🙏✝️
Thank you ❤️
