prayers for hubby please--long

[Anne-Samantha's Mom]

oh my god..yesterday he wasnt feeling well..he has hep c and emphysema..well he drove his mom to his sisters in his dad's car..neither one of them saw that his other sister had her car parked almost right behind the garage..when hubby backed out he ripped the whole front end off his dad's car...not much damage to his other sisters car.....hubbys mother felt so bad she said she would pay to get both cars fixed & hubby can pay her back..that is not the problem...his brothers are the problem...he kept getting sick last year & kept missing work..they all worked together --I finally dragged hubby to a dr where we found out about all this stuff..his brothers uncerimonously fired him!! their own brother..and have not spoken a word to him since!!! they say he is faking his illness & is nothing but a liar...dear god..his mom & dad have been really good..I mean his mother came with us to the liver clinic over & over...he saw a total of 6 specialists and 11 drs for the live...and his own dr and a lung specialist...how can he be faking it?? awfully hard to fake out a disability claim..he is on long term...believe me..I know him..he is not well...so last night they were all up in arms about a simple accident & acted like it was the end of the world...why are his brothers treating him this way? I dont understand why & never wlll..they talk with me..I dont mention dub...i just say hello & we talk about other things...please pray for my hubby..he is so down after yesterday that he is shaking...I have never seen him shake before...he is a wreck..if it wasnt for sam I think he would have done something drastic...I am at wit's end...and I feel helpless as hell...I work we are pretty broke and now we have to give his mom 100 a month to pay her back (thank god it is not more than that)--what next? cant someone give this poor man a break???? I am so worried about his mental health and well being...so worried..and it aint helping me to be a nervous wreck all the time either..thanks for listening.....

My goodness...
I don't know what to say. I did say a prayer though. Thank God you he has you, sam and his parents. Maybe his brothers need to be reminded that they ARE brothers and they should be grateful they are not in his shoes! I can't imagine this makes his parents especially proud either -them treating him this way. Pray for them too...ask God for wisdom and the heart to forgive...
Bless your heart. I can't imagine....

Maybe that is there way of not wanting to face the truth-It is scary when someone in your family has so many problems all at once. They are looking at their own mortality & rejecting it and mad about the car, perhaps they are afraid they might catch an illness. You will make it, you just have to believe that things will get better & remain strong for him & Sam. Your parents deserve a blessing for their support. Maybe they can talk to the brothers and give them some insight & time to think it through. ((hugs))

I imagine that they initially thought that he was faking, and then they were too ashamed later to admit that they were being jerks when they found out the truth. They will be the ones in the long run to have to suffer the consequence of shunning their brother when it's too late to apologize.
If this is really affecting Dub, then maybe he could try to talk to them, or you could talk to them on his behalf and try to put an end to the abuse.
I think that it really doesn't matter who makes the first move here, as long as someone does and this doesn't turn into a long term war with a bad outcome. If they persist in being jerks, then it would be better not to associate. I am really concerned that the parents haven't taken up for Dub some to try to offset the situation before it got this bad.
i will pray for you, and I hope this ends up being one of those happy stories later on.

[Chrissy and Flock]

You got the prayers for as long as you need them and then some. :) I am a firm believer in what goes around comes around, so the next time they are being ugly keep that in mind. Let God deal with them in His time.:hugs: from me and my flock.

His brothers will get what's comming, sounds like some jeolousy & guilt both going on there. Hang in there Anne, you have us all for moral support dear. Things are ruff now, just count the blessings you have.

Anne..a preacher once told me..all people get down..but God's people get back up:pyou are a strong woman & you will survive this..I know this may not be much comfort..but..plz know my prayers are with & Dub..sometimes your family..can be your worst enemies..it is a fact that some people are jealous(I hate that word)that others don't have to get out every day to the ole grind of the work force..what they don't realize is that the disabled would gladly trade places.

:sadeyes:Well I am new here but my heart goes out to you and your husband. I know how hard it is when your family isn't getting along and what it's like to have a husband hurting. As a wife you feel like you should be able to make them feel better, but in these situations all you can do is watch them hurt and give them a shoulder and all your love. But if my husband is anything like yours that means more to him then anything else in this world...I'm sure he feels very lucky to have you...as he should:bowdown:! I hope that all of these prayers from this "family" of bird lovers help you and your husband to at least see that there are people who care, and have faith that things will get better. Wether it be his brothers coming around and realizing their mistakes, or god giving you two the strength to accept that you two have enough love for each other to live a happy life with out them in it.
you will be in my thoughts and prayers
