I've been here lurking since October 2017. And I'm amazed at the progress that's been made through sheer intention and focus. I've tried to contribute, but working only with an ipad and the anons here are so much faster and have more knowledge about finding things than I do. So I've read, and researched to prepare for when this family needs the information.

I have one favor to ask of anons. I need a group prayer for my son. He is very sick, and because of this, he's lost his job. He's been to so many doctors and none of them have been able to do anything. Some have even accused him of being delusional, (he's not delusional). He's in pain all the time and has the sensation of parasites under his skin. He's been suffering with this for 3 years now and it's only getting worse. I'm afraid it's going to kill him. Today he's unable to stand or speak coherently. Last time we took him to the emergency room, they accused him of drug shopping and kicked him out.

He's got two little ones and a wife that depend on him. His quality of life, and therefore, theirs, is imploding. I can't find any other doctors that will help him. He no longer has insurance as he's lost the job that provided it, so he's stuck in a medical black hole. We are in Broward, that illustrious county, and there's not a whole lot good to say about the doctors we've already seen here. We have no idea what this is, nor any way of finding out since we've exhausted all the routes we could, and none of the doctors he saw ordered any tests to find out what this is. He's so disillusioned with doctors at this point that he refuses to go to any in this county.

I don't know what else to do except pray, pray daily, and pray hard. He needs help.

Please anons, I would so greatly appreciate a group prayer. At this point, faith is all I have left.

Sincerely,

Sad and desperate Mom-anon
