For my son

It's awkward asking for support on a forum like this but there are a lot of good people here and my son could use your prayers. He's 9 years old and we've known since he was a toddler that he has some issues. He hasn't been diagnosed with anything, I think mostly because his symptoms are so varied. At first they said maybe autism, then aspergers then bipolar and finally a combination including turrets. He does not fit in socially at all and lately has been groaning and grunting subconsciously to the point where it is almost non-stop. His facial ticks have gotten much more severe and he has been drinking more fluids than he can possibly need for his size. I've been able to handle it up to this point and just let him know that I'm here for him. But lately, it's starting to break me up and I'm really worried that things are getting worse. Like any parent I just want him to be happy and healthy so if you have a minute, please say a quick prayer for him and for me that I can accept whatever is going on. Thanks a bunch.

My strong prayers to you and your son. I too have a son seriously afflicted and the wonderful people on here have been super supportive. Watching a child or loved one with serious illnesses, problems, afflictions is gut-wrenching, and emotionally draining. We're pulling for your son and you, too!
God Bless.

 

Prayers of strength and courage your way

 

Lots of prayers and a squadron of my best angels are now on there way to watch over you, your family and your son. Prayer really does work.

God Bless you and give you unending strength as you move through life with your precious son, it will be ok.

 

I don't know what else to say except thanks. I think I might have kept this bottled up a little too long, now I feel like an emotional 13 year old girl....
My wife is taking in a urine sample today to test for diabetes or something that might explain the excessive drinking, I pray to God it's not but we'll just keep going one day at a time if it is. Thanks again for your thoughts and prayers!

Thanks Ben! I'm really glad you're on here. You're a very reliable person.

 

Prayers sent your way!

God bless,

 

Prayers being sent your way man. I have a son and when he gets so much as a cold I feel horrible cause I can't do anything to take it away. I can only imagine how hard this must be for you. Hoping for the best for you and your family.

 

One day at a time man, my thoughts are with you and your son.
