Sorry for the long post in advance.
Prayers for my Gram. She's 88 years old, diabetic, and just got out of the hospital into a nursing home for rehab. Well now she's isn't acting herself, refusing to use the restroom, and other things. We are worried about her. And it looks like she may need permanent nursing home placement or a stay at home nurse. Prayers for my mother's side as they deal with this.
Prayers for my biological mother, who is experiencing many tough health issues.
Prayers for my parents who are really struggling with financial difficulties.
Prayers for all those affected by the wildfires.
And prayers for me, as I am recovering from a very recent concussion.

I ask that you guys say a prayer for my little cousin. She has badly injured her leg, and she is a gymnast. There is major concern about her recovering completely. She can use all the support she can get.

I am currently dealing with a lot. If you all could think good thoughts that would be awesome. Might help me to work through this a bit more than I am, currently.

We all possess resilience, we just need to realize it.

Please pray that I will get through this horribly difficult time of my senior year of college. I don't know when I'll break down again because everything's so overwhelming. I also want prayer for peace, comfort, and for people to not elevate my stress as well.

For a dear friend who is going through a lot right now that their situation improves soon.

Please pray that my best friend lives a happy life, forever.Despite how my life went after she left me, she's brought me nothing but happiness.
Please pray that she and whoever she's with will be protected from misfortune and disaster, and that they will always be blessed people.. and that they will never, ever experience anything bad.
My best friend is a special person.. Please also pray that whoever she comes in contact with will appreciate her and not take her for granted.

Pray that I get the job I am interviewing for on the 14th. I need it for multiple reasons.

I have an interview tomorrow. Please pray for me.
I did a bit of studying. I have three letter's of recommendation.
I know I nailed the last one and I have a decent closing statement.
I just worry I'll get tripped up but I know what skills to focus on and emphasize and I know a few other things to emphasize.
I need this job and it would alleviate so much stress that is coming up around May.

My grandma is in hospice. She has been for about 3 months. She is a fighter. I guess the tubes to her pace maker got infected and the shunt in her brain swelled so the connections to that got infected too. She isn't strong enough for surgery to have them replaced and the doctors say she won't ever be. She has days where she's smiling and talking to me and others where she is sleeping and barely wakes.
The whole situation is stressful my family (mok and aunt) are fighting over who is getting what stuff of my grandmas. My mom who i don't speak to even had the nerve to tell my aunt she didn't want my boyfriend and i to have my grandparents wedding rings because she thinks he will pawn them. My mom has a lot of nerve. I have been with my boyfriend for 5 years. He would never do something like that. My mom would just to spite my grandma and my aunt. She says she isn't going to visit my grandma any more and isn't talking to my aunt.
In my honest opinion someone who hates my grandma has no right to come to the funeral. I'm gonna be mad if she shows up there.
My grandma deserves visitors and happiness she is dying for crying out loud. When I'm in town i try to visit her every day. My aunt went on vacation after Christmas and I went to feed her 2 times a day and bugged the nurses to turn her and change her catheter.
I guess my prayer request is for my grandma to be happy and in peace. I also want my family to stop all the nonsense and visit our dying relative.
I don't want anything if it has to be fought over. I just want to know that I made my grandparents proud. I love her so much. Because of my mom i didn't get to know my grandma as much as I would like to. She turned 85 on March 3rd. Im so proud of her for fighting as hard as she is. I know she missed my grandpa (He died Dec. 2016) and sees him all the time. I just don't want her to suffer and be at peace. Lord hear my prayer. Amen.

One of my best friends is having complications in her pregnancy. We aren’t 100% sure what it means but the things I researched make it seem potentially dangerous to her unborn son. She still has a long time to go in the pregnancy so please pray she and her unborn son both survive this.

Please keep my dog in your prayers. We’re waiting on the results for a few more tests that will hopefully tell us what’s wrong and why she’s knuckling and having trouble walking/standing. It’s like when she walks she’s beyond hammered and is unable to support herself.
We have an emergency visit booked this afternoon at a specialist vet (a doggy neurologist) for a CT, MRI, a spinal tap and a nerve biopsy to be sure we tested for everything. Hopefully they’re able to figure out what’s wrong because our vet is so baffled. If we aren’t able to figure out what’s wrong, we’re going to have to put her down because it’s not fair for her to be suffering this badly. We don’t want to do that until we are sure that we have run every test. If the results show nothing that is causing this or that there is no treatment for what os, we have to because she’s suffering so.

Pray for my friend and her unborn son. I mentioned that she was elevated in a protein a while ago but tomorrow she is going for the ultrasound to see if there are any abnormalities and if so what they are. Her doctor said there's also the possibility of it not actually being anything so please hope for that.

Please think positive thoughts that my living situation will get better. Things are tense and I am dealing with so much. Relapse is a big worry right now and I am doing what I can to stay safe.

Our Medicaid documentation and cancellation crossed in the mail and our kitty is going to the vet tomorrow. Please pray that he gets better and that Medicaid is reinstated.

I'm taking a belt test tomorrow. I know I'm gonna pass it, without a doubt, but if I pass it at a high enough level, I'll move up another rank to make up for my last test, which I failed.
I've never been more pumped in my life, but I could use some prayers.
EDIT: I did it! I really appreciate anybody who sent me their prayers!

Thoughts my way as I have a stressful couple of weeks. Wednesday is going to be a struggle. I did find tools to cope better than I was but I am dreading it. After Wednesday I have to prepare and study and the following week I'll be doing something stressful every day except Monday.

I just applied for new health insurance after the Medicaid saga. Please pray that the documents they need get where they need to and that this issue is finally resolved.
