~Mighty Oak~Gamma Knife Prayer Request For 12/19/08

Friday is the big day for The Mighty Oak, his Gamma Knife will be performed again on the newest met and any more that we waited for to pronounce themselves!! We are geared up and ready. I even have some extra pocket money packed so I can spoil myself in the giftshop and restaurant in the Gamma Center...LOL

I know we do not need to ask for the prayers that I know you include in your routine already. This time around though I am asking for special prayers for me. Although we are very excited to get this done so we can move forward, this happens to come at a time that I am so depressed (not the holidays either).

So please, when you are thinking positive thoughts and sending prayers for Mighty Oak's good outcome, l ask for my own. I need to remain strong and steady for him. Pray that I can maintain my positive demeanor, but most of all to help me through this depression. This is a happy time for us both and even if I remain positive that he will heal, I am more worried about me right now. Funny, seems the only thing that is keeping me afloat is how positive I feel about his outcome. Good things are about to happen for him and I, I feel it. I just wish I can get out of this rut so I am able to enjoy it.

Did not mean to make this post more about me but I guess I needed it to be. I love you all and I am sure your responses will lift me out of this dark place I am in.

So that is it in a nutshell, nice and neat. Prayers for our continued strength and that I can see through the fog that is trying to overcome me.>>Believe51

PS: I'll get back to you and let you know what I ended up making mine in the giftshop! (smiling).....last time it was an expensive scarf with....you guessed it, LEAVES all over it!! (really smiling)
