my sweet cousin; why did you go away?


I need huge prayers for my cousin who has seemed to run away after a huge bout w/ depression & pain. She left her home in her van to travel many miles away to go to a church she basically grew up in on a day that most churches are closed. She has taken off before on foot to go see her son. She recently moved away from a home she has known for many years. It has really been an adjustment for her & the rest of her family to move & also to deal w/ her many symptoms. I am really frightened for her not to mention seeing how her family must feel. I think she is suicidal too. She needs so much care & I am afraid she is running away from the only help she can get.

So, I am doing so much better & now this is tripping me up a little. I need to call her daughter for sure & see if there has been any trace of her. She left yesterday(the 24th). All I can do right now is think of her. She & I as most of you know have been in touch for a few years after being unable to get in touch after over 20 years. I got in touch w/ her after my dad died in Dec of 2011. So, what can I do but pray? I don't want to get too anxious over this. Any other suggestions?

I am desperate for support as I know my cousin is.

Kathleen

Prayers for all. Even if you don't know her whereabouts, her HP does. I know this is a concern for you and hope you hear some facts about her soon. Until then, maybe the Serenity Prayer? (((K)))

you are such a caring person. I like how you come here and ask for what you need. Just make sure you keep energy back for  yourself. Your cousin is on their own path in life. At least she thinks of something and goes for it.

What are you doing with yourself? Whats new and positive? hugs and love honey!!
