PLEASE PRAY FOR MY SON, JONATHAN

Blog Posted:12/4/2021 10:31:00 AM

Hello, Soupers....

I have not really been much in Soupville lately.... and I am not a long member... just became one last year.

I am asking for your help. Please pray for my son Jonathan, he contracted Cov 19 the week-end before Thanksgiving and not getting any better. I took him to the doctor and they gave him medication; but not working. I do have to take him to emergency and he is really scared. He is 41; but in my heart he is still a child, a boy and my heart is breaking.

I know prayers can help, much more with group prayer... so I am asking for your prayers for my son, Jonathan Morris Evans.

Also, please be very careful. I am fully vaccinated including the booster and I tested "positive". I am fine. I just want all of you to be reminded to Be Safe and Stay Safe.

Thank you so so much... Appreciate it with all my heart... Blessings to all of you...

UPDATE (12/5/21)

Thank you so much for your support and kindness (thoughts, wishes, prayer, hugs). I appreciate them so much. It was really tough for me to take him to the hospital because he was scared; but he really needed it because he was getting weaker and weaker to the point of being out of breath when he gets up to go to the bath room.

I had a brother who was taken to the hospital, put on the ventilator and died in the hospital. That was the reason why he did not want to go, plus all the other info he got from the internet. I told him that only happens if the oxygen level was very low. I started monitoring his oxygen level, which was OK and the more he did not want to go. I kept telling him he had to because it is only OK when he's in bed.

I know deep in my heart, your prayers made me think all the ways I can do to make him go. Yes, I found a number, where I can talk to a state nurse, gave all his symptoms, who talked to him and told him to go within four hours. With that and other resources, I was able to take him and he's now receiving the care he needs. Thank you. Thank you.

I hope for your continued prayers for his recovery. Thanks again. I appreciate it.

I can relate to your fears. Your son will certainly have my prayers. I lost my 44 year old son in June to a stroke but my stepson was saved by prayer. Many blessings for his fast recovery. Aloha, Connie xxoo

Marilene Evans
Date: 12/11/2021 10:18:00 AM

Jo, thanks for your prayers. I know the care he got from the hospital is the care I cannot give; but they only kept him there for two nights, released him with 24/7 oxygen and could hardly move. Really tough. I thank God he is getting better. Blessings to you.

Try carom seeds. Chew or swallow or even carom water is very effective in making someone hungry. I always take it when I feel heaviness in stomach. Take care

Saw this just now. Don't worry strong allopathic medicine can make anybody weak. Ensure he drinks lot of liquids and eats well. He should be okay soon.

Marilene Evans
Date: 12/7/2021 11:32:00 PM

Rama, thanks so much for your reassurance. He's drinking a lot of fluids; but lost his appetite. He's just kind of getting back to it. Blessings to you.

My thoughts are with you and your son Jonathan. Was he not vaccinated, Marilene? I am fully vaccinated with a booster, but I have a friend in his early forties that I cannot convince he needs to be vaccinated.

L Milton Hankins
Date: 12/4/2021 12:25:00 PM

I don't understand it either, Marilene. I simply cannot, but it really worries me.

Marilene Evans
Date: 12/4/2021 11:19:00 AM

I don't really know what is with this age group, what is preventing them to get vaccinated.

Marilene Evans
Date: 12/4/2021 11:18:00 AM

No; however, he worked every day with no fail with all precautions. Never skipped a day with the Covid going on. All he did was go to Las Vegas and saw the Raiders game, and it did not matter that he was wearing a mask. Majority were mask less in an inside venue. Thank you so much, I appreciate it. Blessings and Be Safe and Stay Safe.
