Prayer Needs...

In this weekend I heard two sad stories about our friends. Both of them are sick and need to be help. Let me share it with you…I think I will make a false name to hide their identities.

Yah, 35 years old, is a woman who lives with her teenager daughter and hubby. Last Friday she was brought into a hospital because of suffocation. She has a pneumonia for about 3 months. I visited her a day before she went into a hospital, she was still ok. I was surprised when my mom told me that she was in hospital now.

Doctor said that there is a constriction in her lung, and an ulcer in her stomach. What makes me very concern is that she is a needy. She works as a maid with salary around 44$ a month. She has a hubby who likes to spend her money for drink and women. In order to get some money she cooks and sells ready meal to her neighborhood workers. I estimate her husband and she can only earn less than 100USD a month.

She loves her daughter very much, unfortunately her daughter seems not to understand her. One day, her daughter left home for several days without permission, and Yah cried all day looking for her daughter in her illness. She searched her daughter, walked very far although it is hard for her to breath! I wonder how her daughter could let her mother so in pains like that. Thank God her daughter has come back home now.

This evening my mom visited her in hospital and asked her to believe in Jesus. They cried together and prayed to accept the Savior in her heart. I am very grateful for this and I hope she did it not only to be healed but also to be saved. My mom said that may be she can’t live longer.

Please help us to pray for Yah and family. If one of my readers want to help her you can contact me.

Another sad news is about Wan, my husband’s employee. Yesterday he got electricity shock. It was so bad that half of his body burnt severely. His leg was black, his skin was peeled off! It is not a work accident, luckily. He was climbing a mango tree to pick some mangoes when he was stroke by a high voltage electric wire. Thank God he is alive.

Now he is at the hospital, my husband brought him at 9 o’clock yesterday night. There’s only one hospital in our city which has a burn injury division. We have no choice, we have to take him to this general hospital in Bandung. What makes us concern is that the service is so terrible. The doctors seem does not have a heart to help their patients. They leave Wan without taking care of him carefully. They even don’t give a cloth to cover his burnt body!

Now he got a fever, we assumed that he got infection. May be the meds didn’t sterilize his wound carefully. When my hubby asked about his condition to the doctors, they can’t explain clearly. It is really pathetic if a doctor only pursue of knowledge and position, they become so ignorance towards other people’s pain.

I am so sad about them. I hope this writing can touch your heart to at least pray for them. May we always have a thankful heart for His blessings and may we always have concern towards the needy.
