Update and Prayer Requests

I wrote "What Just Happened?" early last week but before I could post it, I got hit with a massive tidal wave of depression, fear and despair. Depression is an old familiar nightmare so utterly terrible that I'm not even going to try to describe it here. I have posted some helpful websites under "Links" but that's all I can do right now.

I know people are praying for us and God is walking through this with me. After countless used tissues, some journaling and some therapy sessions, I am feeling slightly less miserable today.

Please pray for my emotional healing and recovery. I know that the hard work of recovery is just beginning and there are unknown months of painful healing ahead of me, which feels very daunting. Please pray for me to find new courage to face each day. Please pray also for my physical healing, as my emotional pain and tension are now manifesting physical symptoms. Please pray for our insurance to cover as much of our bills as possible, both for last year and this year. Please pray for blessings for HK in his work and that he would be encouraged in his own healing process--which is very different from mine. Please pray for us to find ways to connect and grow together in all this. Please pray for God to provide what we need.
