my partner needs prayer again... and she's not the only one
I am not religious, but she needs prayer. I last asked on DU back in 2018 for a condition which is now in remission thanks almost entirely to her own efforts rather than to doctors. I last asked elsewhere just two weeks ago as she was going in for eye surgery. But what's up now has nothing to do with either of those. The eye surgery went perfectly and everything on that front is looking great; we just saw the doc for a followup exam this morning...
but now she's felled by terrible back pain! A chiropractor may have done a small amount of good. Ice and heat may have done a small amount of good. Magnesium-infused lotion may have done a small amount of good. But the big picture is that she's largely immobilized. And wants prayers. I hope you have some to spare. I thank you, and she thanks you for previous prayers as well as current ones.

Another person who could also use prayer is a former foster-sister of mine, who has gone through a medical wringer with everything from rare blood disorders to kidney stones, each problem interfering with the others so that treatment is constantly being postponed and delayed. It's horrifying. She needs a positive intervention from God more than anyone else I can think of. She very much believes in prayer and I'd like her to receive a full measure of them.

Another friend of mine just had an operation for bladder cancer. He could use one.

So sorry to learn of all these people suffering so terribly.
