Update on Daddy

It's been a long week at our home,but not in a bad way. First, I'll update on my Daddy. I took them to the doctor this morning and it was so cold,still is. It didn't take long to get back and see Dr. Faggard. The people at this hospital were so nice too,unlike the one where I had Daniel at. Wow, I'm seriously contemplating using that place maybe next time. The nurse asked him some questions and then we waited for Dr. Faggard. My parents are so funny. They're just so country. It's a good thing I went with them. Dr. Faggard asked some questions and examed his right hand. He said the symptoms sound like Psoriatic Arthritis. I did not know psoriasis could cause arthritis. He told him that they would take some blood and have him back in 2 weeks. Daddy is in pain,but he didn't give him anything for it. I'm not sure if there is anything,well I just read about one and I will not let him take that mess. I'm going to try and find some sort of natural/herb medicine. That would be much better for him. If anyone has any info please share it with me. He will go back February 16 at 4:00 pm. It's been going on for 8 months and he's worked maybe a month out of the 8 months. They are living off of my Mama's income,which isn't much. Thankfully, we are getting on our feet and we are going to help them,if my Daddy will let us. He does carpentry work and his shoulders may be bothering him because of that. He's always done hard,manual labor. Thank ya'll for praying and please continue.

I'll keep everyone updated and will try to write about the party later tonight or tomorrow. I am sorry for the lack of me at everyone's blog,it's been a busy week! I've missed fellowshipping though!

Prayer Request!

Ladies, I have a prayer request. I thought I posted it last night,but I forgot.

My Daddy has been having a lot of trouble with his hand/wrist since the summer of '08. He went to a specialist today in Lucedale. Well, that doctor sent him to Mobile this afternoon for a nerve testing. Well, they checked them in and all,but for some reason the testing doctors were not notified. They sit there for an hour and a half. He has another appointment with a different place Friday at 9. I am gonna try to get them to stay with us Thursday night and let Mike keep Daniel while I take them there. He was not happy today when they got there and waited that long. Soooo the appoinment with that place will be next Wednesday. Mama can't take off too many times or she'll get fired. Wal-Mart is so ridiculous.

It will hurt so bad and swell. Most nights he's not slept. He has to sit a certian position and it'll be fine for a few hours. It's had him out of work since August or September. They're making it on my Mom's meager pay from Wal-Mart. Thankfully, their church gave them a $2,000 dollar check around Christmas and they paid bills. We've not been able to help much,but my sister and her husband have. Pray God will heal Him somehow,someway. We've been praying for a supernatural healing,but I don't guess that's the way He wants to do it. Which is fine,He can use doctors too.

He cut the tip of one his fingers off while working one day and instead of going to the doctor he just wrapped it with black electrical tape,not smart. So they believe it has something to do with his nerves. They don't know why it swells though,it will be huge! I'd appreciate your prayers. Thank you! I'll keep you updated.

But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
