Title: needing some prayers badly
Post by: loulou on July 05, 2008, 12:08:15 PM
Hi everyone

I am deeply worried for a very dear young man who is in a London hospital on a kidney and liver dialysis, he is in a induced coma state in order for his body to rest whilst he waits for a liver transplant, he is only 27 years and a lovely man who has been unwell of recent.

He is very weak and the doctors are not sure if he would make the operation, it just gets worse. He won't survive without it.

He has 3 lovely children, youngest only nearly 7 months. He is my sister's son in law. I am asking for as many prayers for this young man as i can get. I pray he will make it.

THank you everyone
loulou

Prayers coming.  It is so sad to hear about all these young people with such large medical problems.  And his family is so young too.  Prayers for all of them and his doctors too.

Prayers and good thoughts are on the way LouLou.  I'm so sorry to hear that this young man is so seriously ill.  He has so very much to live for. 

Hugs and God Bless,
Pooh

  Lou Lou,  My prayer's are winging their way to your young man, he is in the best place (London) to have the chance of a liver transplant, and  his youth will give him a better chance if and when they do the operation...
    Give his family all our good wishes , and tell them we are right there with them... God Bless. Dolly

LouLou,

My prayers go out to this young man and his family.  I pray a matching donor is found quickly and the transplants are successful. 

God Bless them all,

Sue

loulou, I will also keep this young fellow in my prayers. It is amazing how there is so much illness in the world. Also, so much of the stuff is so darn serious in these young people. He has such a long road ahead of him and with 3 kids---what a hard thing for this young gal to go through. Plus, your sister is suffering a lot also.

Also, how many of you have heard of Caringbridge? I think if you go to caringbridge.com you will get an explaination about how the site works. It is such a great site but I don't know if there is a charge or not. Irish ;D

Bless you all and thank you.

An udate: he has had the transplant and is in recovery, he is still extremely ill but the next 42 hours will be hard. He does have youth on his side, and its seems that London know what they are at.

I am grateful for this site and the most wonderful people here. THANK YOU ALL that have given time to pray, i ask that we continue to pray for a full recovery.

Take care

Loulou,

My prayers are also going out to this young man and his whole family. I am glad that he received the transplant and send more positive thoughts that during the next few days his body will accept the new organ.

Prayers also go out to the organ donor and his/her family. Organ donation is something that should be very near and dear to all of us and is the ultimate last act of giving to another human being in need.
