Thanks again for prayers for me & my family & friends & our pets. I have always had my usual issues. My most urgent prayer at this time is the healing of my injured finger. I vaguely remember having cut that finger recently, but it didn't seem any worse than all the others, whether they were paper cuts or I cut my finger while washing or drying a knife. But the top knuckle of my finger is swollen now, and worse than that, it is purple. I have asked my doctor to prescribe an antibiotic, to be mailed directly to me.

My friend Beth is grateful for prayers for herself & her family. She especially asks for prayers for her to feel well enough to return to her 12-step work. She tests negative for COVID now, but she is still very tired, and her chronic back pain also distracts her from her good intentions.

And thanks again for prayers for my kitty, Cootie. He is looking good now. I am glad I was able to take him to the vet.
