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
Praying for your this loving heart man - Lord we ask you watch over your son and restore his health. We ask that all who give him medical care from this point forward do so with your inspiration and guidance. In Jesus' name, Amen.
Thank you... what has been said in response to my prayer request, has made a difference for my sweet friend who until now had never really thought about spiritual matters. I am so glad that she and John can know now that even strangers care this much.
