PRAYERS REQUEST. my family and i have a special prayers request, for our dear friends Emma (Sissy831), and her family. Emma texted me last night, she's not been feeling well, and has been experiencing some health issues, that are very worrysome. i called Emma after 10pm last night, to talk with her for a little while, and to help uplift her's and her family's spirits. Emma wants to return to DS more often, her husband thinks it will be good for her, and healthy for her. :) i told Emma, how very strong she is, and how she's gonna make it through these times. She has diabetes, and also has heart issue, that is worrysome. i told Emma, to focus on healing, and also doing all that her doctor's say, so that she can get the very best care, for chance of healing progress taking place. many friends know Emma, as i've mentioned her in many of my journals over the years. we care deeply about everyone.  please keep Emma, and her family in your thoughts and prayers, and send healing energy, and also continued prayers and healing energy, for our dear friends DC (DCUK) and her pet Pippa.
