BIL needs serious prayer

Esther · #1 07-31-2008, 08:16 AM

My BIL never complains nor goes to the doctor. He was released from the hospital yesterday without knowing what exactly is wrong with him.

They found a spot on his kidneys and said something is wrong with his skeltal (sp) spine.

He is in so much pain he can't sit still. Yet the hospital sent him home without any pain medication. This man never complains about being in pain nor feeling bad.

He had rode his horse and a 4 wheeler that morning and come in around 11:00 white as a ghost. He would sit in his recliner for a while and then get up and walk outside. He goes hot then cold, back and forth.

Needless to say, he did not have a good night last night. Since he never goes to a doctor they had to find one quickly that would see him soon. He goes to a doctor tomorrow morning but with the weekend coming up I'm afraid he has a wait ahead of him.

On the spiritual side, he was raised Baptist and refused to go to a church except for a funeral and doesn't want his funeral in a church. So he needs prayer in that arena as well.

This is my husband's only brother. He was just out here to visit us last month and was seeming fine.

Thanks for your prayers.

Thanks!

I wish men would not be so stubborn about going to the doctors and they might not have things in such serious condition!

BTW...they also found out he is diabetic.

What is this about men being stubborn?

My hubby is just as bad.

He needs to have his shoulder checked, but noooooooo he keeps on playing golf and probably making it worse.

BTW...he is going to the doc this morning. I hope to know more today IF possible.

Thanks all for the prayers!
