Prayer Request

My middle son's friend has encephalitis, and has been hospitalized for over three weeks. He is in a medically induced coma.

If any of you would hold him in your heart and send up a prayer on his behalf (and his family's), I would be very grateful. If you could put him on your church's prayer board, his name is Noah.

And he's only 8 years old.

Thank you so much,

Alison

Consider it done immediately, will pray for Noah and his family - I can't imagine what life is like for them right now. Bedside vigils and cafeteria food and life on hold....I would imagine

Apparently, it started with a stomach virus.

Thank you so much, everybody. From what I have heard, it still looks grim. :(

Please keep the prayers coming....

Oh how awful.....poor thing. I'll be saying prayers for him too.

I'll be giving my kids some extra cuddles today.....sometimes life gets so hectic and chaotic, I take for granted that they'll be here another day. Hearing a story like this just makes me want to savor every moment with them.

Keep us updated, I hope the little guy is able to pull through.

Thanks, Amanda. He is very sad and very serious. I emailed his teacher at school to see if the class could pray for Noah, even though most of them don't know him.

We so wish we could do more than pray....

I couldn't help thinking of Noah all weekend. I have a long prayer list this month and Noah is certainly on it. Please keep us up to date on his condition.

The school is going above and beyond--the whole school is praying for Noah every morning until he comes home!

Wow! I take it that this is not a public school that your son goes to.

I've said another prayer for Noah, his family, the doctors and nurses taking care of him. Also said a prayer for all of his friends too.

Thank you so much, everybody.

His doctors are changing his meds this week, and say that they really don't know what to expect, but that they fear that he is in for a bumpy ride this week.

Please keep the prayers coming....

Prayers for Noah and his family.

This might cheer you up. My sister had it when she was 3 and we were told she would die or remain comatose. She is currently 38 and anything but in a coma! Miracles CAN happen!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      My question I have proposed to the FDA through their website is why Prescription and OTC drug manufacturers are not required to list what binding ingredients were used to bine the drug? They list this on Capsules which are made of cellulose but not on pills? As it stands I or my pharmacist must contact the manufacturer to find out and my list is long from...

I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!
