:Lori --SPARE? nope -- there's no 'sparing' -- there is exceedingly abundantly beyond all you might ask or want. Not gonna just 'spare' a prayer I'm gonna pray LOTS and prayer big!!! There is never ***ever*** 'too much' that you've asked. The Alpha of all Alphas loves to show us His Hand -- He loves to show that even "His eye is on the sparrow" -- and how much more on something WE love.
You've done so well -- so yes, ask Him as we all will. He loves it when we all pray and talk to Him together. He loves this little corner of this board -- He loves to show HE reads it too. This isn't asking too much -- this is just plain being faithful. This is letting Him show how much He truly loves all of us -- and if for a dog, then how much more for one of us.
Lori -- time after time after time when Billy was sooooo very very sick -- I asked for prayer both here and on my other little board -- I'd ask friends, I'd ask ... acquaintences ... I'd ask God to touch the hearts of others.
And you know, even today I get emails from people who were faithful to lift Billy up THEN. And I get blessed anew that He uses all things -- even dogs ... even .. .yes, the sparrow (the little one in that parking lot we all walked by today??) nothing is beneath His notice. AND His love.
So oh yes, I will lift her up now and in the morning -- not just for 'numbers' but for it to truly show how she is. To give the vets good discernment to know what they *should* do now and that it will truly be good and wonderful progress. To give them superior wisdom about how to wean her off the pred the best best way to keep this problem resolved ... not just for tomorrow during the test but day after day after day for the rest of a long and productive life.
AND for you -- for calmness and peace and a good night's rest. *hugs* my friend. I have soooooooooooooooooooooo been there. And as long as my arms can help hold you up I surely will. *good hugs*
I've said it before --your loving care of this dog is awesome. YOU caught the problem initially before it became fatal. YOU were vigilant, so I gotta pray for you too, that you have the strength and the wisdom to remain vigilant.
