Extra prayer request, please!

[Guest guest]

Gals,

Please remember me (and my hubby, Jeff) in prayer this weekend and upcoming week. For starters, I go for my consultation this week. I'm having to break the 7 hour drive up into a 2 day drive each way in hopes of limiting motion sickness and migraines. Please pray that our trip will be safe, and my consultation with Schnarrs will go well.

We are leaving Wednesday. We have a friend who house sits who will stay here with our cat -thank God for that, because I was so worried about what to do with her. She's old, and it traumatizes her to be boarded any where.

I'm so worried and very much afraid. My hubby has never been the type to go into appointments with me... I have social phobia to a disabling agree by itself, and I feel so alone and unsure of myself... but I just have to keep telling myself that while I'm alone in the flesh, I am not alone in spirit. I know I will have the thoughts and prayers of my fellow friends who've already gone through this, or are planning to, and otherwise. God will also hold my hand, and I have to keep telling myself these things.

The weekend prayer request is for a loan. To make a long story short, my husband has asked to borrow money for my explant from someone using his SUV as collateral. They are considering it, although it looks like a long shot. No one truly understands that this isn't cosmetic, and isn't something I'm just choosing to do out of further vanity. People here haven't heard of this, and don't really care about it enough to learn just for my sake.

I have 6 doc appointments in the next 4 weeks (just that I can think of off the top of my head), as well as a few other minor surgeries and tests to go through this winter -all of which I just found out about last week. My goal for explant is November or December. So, there's a lot to do, and I'm just not up to all of this. The stress and worry of this trip and our financial situation is just overwhelming right now.

While it is like me to be theatrical in my expression, it isn't like me to be emotional and dramatic -but that's just what I've reduced to! lol So, please remember me (and my husband) in prayer, as I offer all of you my own prayers in return.

Prayers to all of you,

Brigite

PS: Thanks to all of you. If not for you, I wouldn't be so close to explant. I'd still be uneducated on the matter while moping around sick all the time feeling helpless.
