Urgent Prayer Request For Shiela Wall of Bluebirdy (Life- 4 Hours At A Time)

This an urgent prayer request for Shiela of Bluebirdy (Life- 4 Hours At A Time). She is so sick and has just been rushed to the hospital with her equally sick mother. She just suffered severe lupus flares. Please pray for her, for her healing and that of her mother and sick brother and for God's divine providence for them. Thank you all very much. God bless us all.

I am reprinting her email answer to my frantic letter to her regarding her present condition . To wit:

Hi Mel;

I don't think I've ever had a friend care so much about me. Thank you. Mom and I were both in the hospital, and I was quite sick for a long time before I finally decided to go get help. We got out last night. Mom was given medicine that made her feel better already, but I was told that I will get worse before I get better. This emotional grieving caused my lupus to rage. Rage is a good words because it has caused red, angry, hot, painful inflammation all throughout my body; which also messes up all my body functions like blood pressure, heart rate, blood sugar, and every other chemical in my body...so I have spent a lot of time semi-conscious or just unable to think or function. I am not even able to get up and shower and get dressed. My heart stopped again a couple of times again. When my first husband left me with only 3 hours notice, (and I didn't even know we had a problem,) about a month later, my heart stopped a few times. Now it's happening again after losing this husband, so when a person with lupus grieves, they suffer not only emotionally, but physically.

For bout 2 weeks, Mom and I were too sick to even check on each other or help each other. All we could do is call each other on the phone, so finally we needed help. We were not even able to get up to get enough to drink or eat. We talked about hiring help, but we are not even well enough to get up train the person and show the person where things are. Maybe I will hire help when I feel a bit better, so that if we get this sick again, they will help. We are just doubled up in pain, existing...but this too shall pass. Mom is already up and around and doing better. I will take a bit longer.

My mind logically tells me that the Lord has kept me alive for a purpose, and that I will get better so I can function enough to accomplish what He is keeping me here for, but at the moment, it feels like I am only half alive.

My heart is deeply touched that you even noticed that I have not been well enough to do much on the computer. For 10 years I never failed to meet my goal of answering 100 emails a day, but I have not even been reading my emails unless they are from someone dear to me, like you. I just have no strength right now, and more pain than I can bear. It will pass, it's just a hard stage I am going through right now. The Lord has been carrying me through it. Things could be so much worse. I really don't have any right to complain, but also not enough energy to think of something great to post online, so I just stayed silent. I think of you and your family often, and pray for you when those thoughts come.

I have passed out so many times just writing this...it's so frustrating! I have probably repeated myself a few times. Sorry, my mind is not clear. You are such a precious friend. I am so thankful to have you in my life.

Bless you in all ways!
Sheila
