Default Your thoughts and prayers are needed....

for my wife and our family. She will find out later today or tomorrow if she has MS. Scary time for her and myself. Not to mention our 9 year old son who doesn't know anything yet, and the impact it may have on him in the future. Please pray for her.
Thanks!
Ray

Will definitely be praying that she doesn't have it. Our union president's wife has MS. I'm not sure what kind of medicine she's taking, but you would never know she has it. They say the medicine is pretty much holding it steady, and she's not getting any worse at all.

Put in a good word for your wife, you and your son. I know where she is sitting right now--tell her to hang on, you hold on tight, too. Nothing but love to all of you, my friend.
