A prayer request


Hi folks...I got a bite of some type (insect, though didn't see what) on my left index finger while in Mexico; it has gotten infected, despite taking antibiotics and being drained several times. I am now having some pain and streaking up my hand and arm. I have treated several patients with community acquired MRSA recently...I am on doxycycline that is one of the drugs we often use to treat that; the other one is a sulfa based med but I am allergic to that. I work on a computer all day at work as we have an electronic medical records system and it is getting difficult to type with my left hand..or at least quite painful to do so. The next step if this does not improve is IV antibiotics...I can do that in our office but not really wanting to...I have a full schedule of patients as we are getting into cold and flu season..plus I was out on vacation for a week. I know, medical people make the worst patients! But I truly would just like this to get better...so if you would, could you say a prayer for me?

Dear Merciful Father, You know the source of this affliction. You know the reasons for Your servant's suffering. Father, I pray You restore Deena's health and ease her pain and suffering. Father, draw Deena ever closer to You during this trial. Lord, I pray for wisdom for the medical staff treating Deena, that they will quickly identify a treatment. Father, in all things, we submit to Your will. We seek these blessings in the name of Christ Jesus, AMEN!

Lord I stand with the rest of the boggers and ask for your healing power to be released. In Jesus name!

I just read this too Deena and I am praying for your speedy recovery from this and that it is not MRSA! Please let us know how you are doing today. Hugs!

May God Bless You in ABUNDANCE

Hi PJ...doing much better since asking everyone to pray; my entire arm had pain and streaking up to the armpit...now over the last 24 hours or so that has greatly regressed; the infection is confined to the fingertip now...think I will have it drained again tomorrow...and hopefully after that it will resolve soon. Had been antibiotics that cover for MRSA as I have treated several patients with that recently...and was on them more than a week, getting worse and not better...until I asked for prayer. Happy to say the improvement has been amazing. Thanks for asking!
