Recently divorced (literally "Thank God") single Mom, works full time, goes to school part time. Her ex-husband thinks $249.00 total a month is okay for child-support and all the bills he left her with, AND she has kidney trouble. She had her ~10th surgery today for cystine kidney stones in the last 7 years. Last one was 3 months ago. She just gets everything in order, and has the surgery. I take care of her for a couple of days (even had to do that when she was married :hoboy: ) and she is back to being a great Mom, worker, and student. She has to take many different medications for the rest of her life, deal with a great deal of pain on a daily basis, and she still has a fairly positive outlook. Say a little prayer for her. She needs to have the medicine work all the time so she can live a more normal life.
Thanks,
Mom

Wow. Makes my problems in my other post seem pretty trivial. Its a testament to her character and to her parents that she is able to be positive in times like this. And yes, $249 is a joke.
Glad to hear she's hanging in there!

She needs to understand that no mater what happens in her life, that Gods eye will allways be on the sparrow. As a father who watched my boy go from A++ Christian student. to a wild looking member of the "Gothic scene" with painted up face. anti scocial, and all the extream that was inbetween, He is now a loving Christian husband who leads a large Bible study group at his home. and is very successful in Business. I would pray on the end of his bed before he would go to school. i would pray in his room while he was away. i woud pray, pray. pray....there is nothing else you can do. And inturn the Lord promised me that he would never take his eye off him. I prayed for him and all those parents in this world that was going through the same thing as i was. You have to be careful not to make your prayers "self centered" it is easy to do. and upon being obedient to the Lord. my 19 year old Son came home, wanting to let me know that he is sick of this life style, and he wanted back, and back for good......i will pray for your daughter!
