Urgent prayer please.

For anyone who is reading this tonight PLEASE PRAY for us right now! Dh 'pulled' his back yesterday and it has been sore all night and all day today. He has done this many times before and a good rest puts it right.

He laid down for a nap this afternoon and when he woke up he was in agony!!! He attempted to get up off the bed despite the horrific pain and he simply crumpled up in a heap on the floor!

It has taken us half an hour to manuvour him flat on his back on the floor so that the pain would ease a bit. I have now phoned the medical service and am waiting for them to arrange an ambulance. We believe he has slipped a disk in his back.

I need to sort the children so that I can go with him. He is just worried about his appointments at work tomorrow! The boys and I gathered around him on the floor, anointed his head with oil and prayed for him. Please join us in praying that his back will go back in - and SOON!!! I hate to see him in such agony!

OH, man! That is NOT a good thing. I truly hope you get better news than a slipped disk. I'll be praying for all of you!

p.s. You are welcome to come visit when you get over to the States ... sorry the bedroom won't be set up, but you can sleep on the sleeper sofa and put the boys next to you on the sofa or on the floor in sleeping bags in the downstairs den! So, my home is open if you need us!

I'm praying. I'm so sorry. I'm sure it's scary for you as well. Trust in Jesus, he is so faithful, gentle and loving with us. He will take care of you.

Praying!!!!
My Honey has gone down like that with his back before...thankfully, it took only a trip to the chiropractor to have him back on his feet. But, it was soooo hard to see him in such agony.

Do keep us updated...

Blessings,
Laurie
