My son has gotten home from training before going to Iraq

Just wanted to let my friends know that my son got home this weekend. He has been gone for 6 weeks and he came over today and spent most of the day with me. Of course when he called he said he was on his way and to have coffee and hot cinnamon rolls ready. He absolutely loves Pillsbury canned cinnamon rolls with the white icing. So did he come to see mom or get rolls???? LOL. Unfortunately he told me he is having some medical problems and the medic told him to see his doctor immediately. I won't go into details but it could be serious. He goes to the doctor Wednesday morning and I am sure is going to have to go for a battery of tests. I am very concerned about it and have spent most of my day praying for him. I will keep you posted as to what we find out. But I can tell you this, that big hug I got was the most wonderful feeling in the world. Say a prayer for him, his name it Tracy and keep him in your thoughts. Thank you all.

Dear Heavenly Father we lift Tracy up to you in prayer. We ask that you bring a healing to his whole body from the tip of his head to the bottom of his feet. We cast into the pits of hell anything that Satan has made for bad. Lord you said, "by my stripes you are healed." We are claiming this in faith and give you thanks for what you have done and what you are going to do in Tracy's life. Lord Jesus Christ you will get all the praises for the miracle brought forth through Tracy. In your precious name we pray Lord Jesus Christ. Amen

Whenever someone ask for prayer, I will post a prayer like this, for one so the person asking for prayer knows that one truly was said, and for two, the others reading the post can pray it as well as they are reading the post. God uses me to pray this way, because prayer flows through my finger tips a lot smoother than it flows through my mouth. I am just being obedient.

Prayers for Tracy, of course. I have known of more than one young man who has had medical problems get uncovered while he was in the military. I am glad we still give medical care and insurance to the people serving us. Please keep us posted. Big hugs.

Thank you so much Gerty. I am hoping some of the problem is just stress and that can take a toll on ones body but time will tell. Hugs and thank you so much.

I'm sorry to hear Tracy is feeling ill. I'm really glad you got to see him though. I've seen the pictures of your two boys and you have something to be proud of. : ) They won't send him to Iraq if he is ill will they? I'll be praying for him whatever happens.

Hi let me tell you at first, I am sure he comes home to see his mom and not to get rolls.:) I am sure it have to feel really good to hugh your son. I am sure you are worried now about him, since he has some medical problems and have to go see the doctor, but I am sure everything will be ok. I would think about you two on Wednesday and hope you will post some good news for us, who will be waiting to read it.

Thanks so much for your well wishes. We probably won't know anything for a while as I am sure they will do some testing and that can take some time to get results back. I will definitely keep you all updated when we find anything out. I guess to be honest I would have to say it is a real toss up as to which he loves most me or my cinnamon rolls LOL Hugs and thanks

To all of my dear friends. I have started a new discussion called Tracy and I so I could add a picture of us. I thought it would help if you could see this soldier you are all praying for. May God bless each and everyone of you dear friends Love and Hugs.
