Prayers for Brandy

One of my dearest friends, Brandy, is struggling and needs some prayer. She really needs a miracle, folks. She is heading to Måyo Clinic on Monday to hopefully find a reason and cure for her looooonnnnnggg list of crippling ailments. She suffers from:

Depression
Chronic Migrains (about a 12 on the pain chart)
Chronic Pain (They say she has fibromyalgia, but she's not so certain)
Memory Loss
Slurred speach
Blurred vision
Vertigo
And I think I'm forgetting a few things. Things were tolerable for her until the birth of her son, Henry, 18 months ago. Then her body began to betray her. She has had her depression under control for about 5 years now, and on that front, is doing great. The doctors haven't been able to find what's wrong. My instincts are she has Lyme disease, but that test came back negative. (Which I know can often happen, even when the person does have lyme) She just wants to be able to function. It kills her to not be able to be the active Mom she craves to be. The passionate wife she longs to be, the functioning human being she deserves to be.

Anyway, please say a prayer for her. Add her to your prayer list if you have one. Or, if you don't pray, just send her some positive energy.
