Need a Prayer
« on: July 07, 2008, 09:42:13 PM »
I know this is a Gun forum, but I like to think of it also as my family. I have met great people on here and been priviledged to make good relationships with people I would otherwise never meet.

I have a dog that is a year and half old black lab, and has been something that has really helped me since my return for the other side of the water. Yesterday while playing catch with her she tried to stop suddenly and her leg got caught somehow, and I have come to find out, broke her pelvis.

She means the world to me, her name is Ellie and rightnow she is in a hospital till tomorrow morning when a surgen will call and let me know what my options are. The vet I took her too before the hospital, I didnt know how bad it was, was not very re-assuring do to the placement of the break and severity. I know some of you might think she is just a dog and dont want to waste a prayer on her then maybe just add one in there for me to over come this. Cause this hard. Thanks everyone.

Ksail, you have it from me. Dogs are one of God's greatest gifts to us, teach us the real meaning of unconditional love.

Know that He is watching you and with you at all times. May His grace be on you and your friend Ellie.

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

We have 7 dogs...who are more like children. My dog (little foo-foo dog named Princess) sleeps with me every night. I don't know what I'd do if something happened to her. I look forward to her greeting me at the door every day when I come home from work. It's a lot of work to spoil a dog that much.  :)

I will say a prayer tonight for you and for Ellie.
Whatever you have to do.. know that God will be there for both of you.
Try to get some rest ...

I will light a green candle of healing before I go to bed in a minute and let it burn all night for you both.

Ksail, my prayers are with you and your little buddy.  I lost one of my boxers, just a few months ago, to cancer.  I never thought I would get that attached to an animal, but it broke my heart.  Since then my other guy has become even more like my child and I've probably spoiled him rotten, but I just can't resist those big, brown eyes.  God will see you both through, just keep your head up. :)

Ksail, I had to put my best friend of 14 years down.  It broke my heart.  I think I am not alone in saying any of God's creatures deserve our prayers for any reason - especially healing.  I join with the rest in that prayer.

God Bless,

Richard
