Dear brothers and sisters,
I am very grateful to God for your presence in my life, for the privilege to know you and for the support you give to us as a family.
It has been a long time now we have many challenges which have gotten us exhausted physically, psychologically and spiritually (since August 2011).
After my mom’s general check out at the hospital, we need your support in prayers. Personally, I feel that this is a period which needs to constantly be covered with prayers from the body of Christ.
Through this Letter of Prayer Request, I seek your commitment to pray for our family and especially for mom.
I have written down what we need prayers on and I would ask to pray at least 5 minutes for each of the things I have listed.
Thank you so much for your commitment in joining us in prayers for our situation.
You are a precious blessing to our family.
Words are never enough to express our gratitude.
Prayer Requests
1. Healing of breast cancer.
From a recent check of mom’s breast, there is a new lump and it has spread so far only at the lymph nodes. We seek God’s healing head over her breast because a surgery in her condition (after stroke) is not possible according to the doctors.
2. Normal function of her heart and normal blood pressure.
After staying at the hospital for two days, her heart rhythm and blood pressure was stabilized. Mom has had arrhythmia before and also BP. She just keeps them under control with medication. Pray that will not oscillate because that can cause her a second stroke.
3. Healing over the limps - she cannot move
After an intensive physiotherapy, mom could start walking using a stick and us holding her. But now she needs to gain strength and have a string will to walk on her own. It looks like it is hard for the hand to get back some reflexes. Pray for the hand and less pain in her limps as she exercises.
4. Healing for the speech
We need a specialist for the speech as well. It has been hard to find a good one in Albania. Mom has the capacity to start speaking again but it needs lots of discipline and special techniques. Pray we find a specialist very soon.
5. Pray for tranquility and peace and joy on mom’s heart and mind.
Mom understands everything and even prays together with us (in her own speech).
But there are cases when she gets tired of looking at herself without being able to fully move and getting a lot of medicine. Please pray she will not fall in despair.
6. Pray for our FAITH in our family
It is a hard period where it is required much physical and mental commitment toward mom but also a commitment in FAITH. Sometimes we are that tired that we have no strength to whether pray or worship God.
7. Pray for my dad
It has been really hard for dad to grasp the whole situation considering that they have been sharing their lives together for 27 years now. Please pray that thoughts of the past and future will not trouble his mind and heart and will let him live the present.
He needs prayers to accept the situation and see more of God.
8. Pray for my sister and I
The challenges of the day are enough to guide us to sadness and despair. In Every single moment we take care of mom there is a high bad emotional state engaged but we try not to appear sad or weepy in front of her. We are also trying to manage a house which was run by my mom, but it is never easy to substitute her in doing all the stuff she used to do around the house.
Thank you!
Love in Christ,
El & the family
