Thank you, and I hope that your Thanksgiving was as well.
I will indeed join you in this prayer, and please include my wife in this prayer as well, if you'd be so kind.
God's bless!
Praying for healing, Denise ~ Love you ~
Blessings Sweet Denise,
Since I can't comment on your blog, I will comment here. I wrote you about it yesterday!
Diabetes is such an epidemic right now. Of course, you know and have pointed out so wonderfully here. I lifted a prayer for you and the many facing this chronic illness and their families. I will continue to pray for healing for you. Although November is almost over, this was still GREAT to have you focus on this. Thanks for sharing and caring for yourself, your family and others!
Love and BIG TURKEY HUG,
Peggy
Joining in prayer with you, dear sister...many family members of mine fight this battle daily, too...
