| Posted 7/11/2002 7:59 AM (GMT -6) |   | Would you guys pray for my six year old daughter? She was born with basically an over active immune system which results in chemical sensitivities and many life altering allergies to foods and environmental stuff as well. Because of all of this she started struggling with the symptoms of peripheral neuropathy(nerve related tingling/ possible damage in her fingers and toes) at 2 1/2. At that time we took her to the top ped. neurologist in the state who scratched his head and said the only children he knows with symptoms like hers have been on heavy doses of Chemo.and could only offer us risky meds with many side effects which he actually recommended us not to do.
At about the age of 4 1/2 we were able to get it under control through much prayer and feeling led by the Lord to an Alternative treatment. It was resolved for the last 2 years and now out of nowhere over the last 2 weeks it has come back again without mercy. She is consumed with misery when she has to deal with it. It is heartbreaking for us to see her go through this. We are desperate for an answer.
Thank you!
love Shell

| Posted 7/11/2002 8:18 AM (GMT -6) | | Thanks mouse! It is such a comfort to know others are praying. This whole situation brings back a lot of bad memories of feeling very helpless and at the mercy of these things that happen to her body that are out of everyone's control...except the Lord. All we can do is pray.
Thanks and bless you!

| Posted 7/11/2002 11:40 AM (GMT -6) | | I seem to have a special burden to pray for kids lately. I'll be spending a lot of time over the next few days.
If you feel like sharing a name with us, that would be cool. I always like praying for someone by name--it's not a theological point, just a preference.
I'll be praying for you too.

| Posted 7/11/2002 7:04 PM (GMT -6) | | Dear Shell,
I have never been a good prayer warrior as I can rarely manage more than 2 minutes in prayer before I find my mind has wandered - but like the lady with the two mites, if 2 mins prayer time is all I've got, then your daughter has it all.

Iconoclast and I will be praying. Email me if there is anything I can do. We have a family member who has chemical and environmental allergies, and when she goes into a "reactive" state it is so debilitating for her and her family. Searching for the cause each time is incredibly frustrating, and even when it is discovered it is very difficult to get her body back to a normal, less reactive state. We will be praying for your daughter and your whole family as you go through this.
Love,
Semeia

| Posted 7/12/2002 1:12 PM (GMT -6) | | Oh you guys are so great! Thanks for all of the responses, you have truly warmed my heart and I am soooo thankful for your prayers for my daughter. Markus...your 2 minutes are greatly appreciated...that was so sweet
Terry...I am a paranoid mother in this day in age and I don't put my kid's names on the internet( is that wierd?), but I am like you in that I like to personalize prayers with names, times of surgeries etc...But thank you thank you thank you for praying and carrying the burden for the little ones...that is awesome.
Semeia, You nailed our life on the head when you talked about your friend...we are constantly walking a tightrope to keep her system in balance...or it's an all out disaster. Thanks for your love and prayers.
Springs, Mouse, Brett, Brandon, Brandi(welcome to the board!),Shine,
Pouringagape...thanks from the bottom of our hearts.
My mom has been very worried about my daughter because of this and my youngest daughter said "Grandma all we need to do is just PRAY!!!"
Thanks
love Shell
