Prayer for my family
Hi All.
My wife is in her 2nd battle against breast cancer. This month, almost to the day, marks when her doctor told her that typical life expectancy is 2 to 5 years. Please pray for her.
And then a prayer request for my family. My wife has suddenly decided that we have never had a good relationship, 18 years, and she doesn't want to waste any more time while I try to repair it. For various reasons, many true, some not quite as true in my mind, she thinks that I have never been there for her. If I had a job she would ask me to leave. I'm not sure how much of this is end of life craziness (meant only figuratively). Please pray and ask that god keep my wife, 11 year old daughter, and I together as a family.
Maybe a little prayer for my sanity as well, because I am lost and losing my grip on reality.
Thanks,
Brian H.

Re: Prayer for my family
Hello Brian
Prayers for your mother and family
If you don't mind me asking are you a believer and do you belong to a Church?
For you and your wife you should look into finding a love and respect group through church or get the video or book but better to go to a group
also you should watch the movie fireproof
love and respect was a real eye opener for both me and my wife
Get marriage conseling through your Church
Prayers can work wonders but you have to meet God part way and give Glory to God. There is great wisdom in the Bible when it comes to marriage . Love and respect series is a Bible based marriage series
Don't put off getting help until its too late do it now .

Re: Prayer for my family
Hang in there. My prayers are with you. My wife was just diagnosed with breast cancer two weeks ago.
