My Family


My Family are very precious to me and when one falls ill, we all suffer.
Unfortunately, Den seems the one to be ill the most due to an illness called Chrons disease.
It means that if he comes into contact with anyone who has a viral infection and catches it or if someone does not clean their hands thoroughly before preparing his food, he catches it! He does not have an immune system like you or me so his body cannot fight off infection.
Dennis was admitted to hospital very very early yesterday morning in serious pain. He has to have steroids and anti-biotics pumped into him to make him well again.
However hard it is to see him in pain, it is also hard to see my children in pain too. Jessie has had to cope with having her dad miss her birthday yesterday which was such a blow for an 11 year old and Jake sees that I struggle and wants to be the big man around the house at nearly 13. It is hard to have to be a grown up so quickly and the whole thing just causes so much stress.

I ask for your prayers for Dennis and the family because I believe God answers when we call out to him.
