As IF MG Isn't Bad Enough

I don't feel like I can really go into detail, but I would like anyone who is able to please pray for me and my family.  Having this disease is brutal.  It's brutal on me, on my husband, on my son, on my marriage, on everything. 

Then you throw every day life in: squabbles and disagreements over child-rearing techniques, opinions, money, sex, you know, just the "stuff" of life that people argue about.

Add in extended family.....that's a whoooooole different post; one that I probably will never write....

And then just being a mom, housekeeper, cook, oh, and small business owner.

It is only by the grace of God that I am still vertical and functioning.  I have had to put up with so much on my own.....Horrible stressful decisions that are beyond difficult to make if you have someone to help you make them, let alone doing in all on my own.

I know the Lord is with me, and that's what keeps me alive.  But I really have some decisions coming up that are going to affect the rest of my life, and the lives of those immediately around me.  And I've given myself 30 days to pray before I make the decision.

I would appreciate anyone who would throw their proverbial "prayer hat" in the ring with me.
