Received from Marie (one of our dedicated prayer partners) via email on 5/15/08:

"Please keep me in your prayers. I woke up Sunday morning (Mother's Day) sick with a sore throat and generally not feeling well. I was on the couch all day and woke up Monday feeling just as poorly.
We had taken my daughter to the family dr. previously and she had a follow-up visit scheduled for Tuesday, so I figured I'd wait til Tuesday. I did indeed see the dr. They did a strep test, it was negative and finally they determined it was some type of infection. She put me on antiobiotics for strep, just in case the test was wrong. (my dh can't be around strep or staph due to cellulitis in his leg)

I've been so sick and can't seem to kick this. I woke up last night, after having taken some homeopathic cold syrup. The Lord woke me up out of a sound sleep and told me to go take Benadryl NOW! I did and the swelling in my throat, which I mistook for soreness in all my grogginess started going down and I was able to breathe normally after a bit.

Today my right ear is sore and infected and I still have a fever. The dr is out of the office til Monday, (I called earlier today) and I am incredibly sick. We have no insurance and I know the Lord can heal me. I know He can. I am miserable. I'm asking for prayers for Him to heal me. I'm really tired of being sick in bed all day.

Thank you for all the prayers in advance. I appreciate this prayer chain so much!

Blessings,
Marie P.
