Hi everyone,

I am sorry this e-mail is too personal for most of you since we don't
know each other, but I don't have the energy to write everyone
seperately and In need as many prayers as I can get.

Below I explain why if you want to know. If you don't, that is really
fine, just say a prayer for me! I also set my e-mail for all my groups
to 'no mail' because I cannot keep with all the mail at this point.

After three weeks, I am, most of the time, still in a lot of pain
after something obscure I did to my back. I am in good hands treatment
wise, and unfortunately on a lot of medication, but the healing
process is very slow. Only yesterday was I able to walk from room to
room a little. I thank God my mom is here to help, but needless to say
my children are getting done... In between doctors' appointments, I am
able to do some homeschooling and these are sweet moments.
On top of this, a good friend of ours is dying (my husband is the
Godfather of their youngest (4 yrs) little girl). I am very sad I am
not able to provide him the hospice care I had been giving him and
that I cannot offer any other help I had been able to give their
family by God's grace before this happened.

Please keep Michael in your prayers as well as his wife Debra, and
their children Mikaela and Fiona. Michael has started the labor of
dying and will die between now and Sunday most likely.

Please also pray for my family, my husband Aaron, my children Tobias,
Rachel and Matthias. PLease pray that God's will be done for them and
for me and that I will somehow be able to direct Michael's funeral,
emotionally and physically (had a podium made and a wheelchair at my
disposal, it's just dealing with the pain).

Thank you all very much.
In Christ,
maria

To all of you who have prayed for me: Thank you so much!
For the first time I slept without pain for 6 hours! I woke up at 4.30
am without pain and felt the room filled with angels. I said an
Akathisit to St. John Maximovitch with tears in my eyes and fell back
alseep peacefully unti 8 am.
My right is cramped up again a little now, but it is nothing compared
to yesterday and before.

Thank you so much!

My prayers are with you and your loved ones. Glory be to God for all things. Though we may not understand now, in faith, we will. Love will overcome the darkness you may be feeling now. I pray that God grants you peace, understanding, and hope.

in Christ,
Antonios

Debra, Aaron, Tobias, Rachel, Matthias, Maria mikael and Fiona and all of you suffering,
May Saint John Maximovich be with you all
