Nathair/|\ Posted April 28, 2011 Posted April 28, 2011 If anyone is willing, please pray for my family. I'm not willing to say more than what I have said elsewhere in open forum, except that I am having a difficult time fulfilling Elder Oak's counsel from last Conference. It is my greatest desire, but I can't seem to pull it off. If anyone really wants to know, PM me and I will share.

Family stuff is too much sometimes, I can relate. Hang in there and my prayers are with you and your family.
Garden Girl Posted April 28, 2011 Posted April 28, 2011 Hello Nathair...Yes, I will keep you and your family in prayers... I'm sorry you are having difficulty.GG

Nathair/|\ Posted May 2, 2011 Author Posted May 2, 2011 Thank you all. The lessons I've learned from this are that I need to be more valiant and more patient. I can be very patient with people's weaknesses, but when something is really important to me, I tend to want it now.
Nathair/|\ Posted May 10, 2011 Author Posted May 10, 2011 Hey, guys, things have taken a turn for the worse. The situation involves manic depression, not mine. I went to church yesterday, and there were dire consequences for attending. Tomorrow morning at nine, mountain time, the situation will come to a crisis. If things go well, recovery can begin. If things go poorly, it will be very bad for my family.
Calm Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 (edited) Mental illness is huge burden for any family to bear, just remember the Lord can turn even the most horrible eventss to our good (I am not saying that the experience is any less horrible, just that it doesn't have to be only meaningless suffereing). This is perhaps a cliche, but it is one that has helped me endure the unendurable over the years. Edited May 10, 2011 by calmoriah

Nathair/|\ Posted May 10, 2011 Author Posted May 10, 2011 Thank you, everyone. I was able to get the hearing delayed until the same time a fortnight from today. That will give me time to meet with counsel and gather witnesses and affidavits.
Nathair/|\ Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 The final hearing is at 0900 tomorrow. Ideally, the other party will drop the case. Any other result would be a disaster.

Nathair/|\ Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 Thank you, everyone. I lost the case, but I did manage to avoid a worse disaster. The other party can also still drop their case when they are ready. Blessings to y'all.

Blessings to y'all.Sorry to hear it was not all resolved well, but at least it's not the worst and things can always improve.
Garden Girl Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 Well, we'll hope the other party will not pursue the case.GG
Nathair/|\ Posted June 8, 2011 Author Posted June 8, 2011 Woo Hoo. The other party dropped their case. They were pressured into starting the case in the first place and when they were in a position to do so, they went to the judge and had the order against me dropped.Now I can work on following Elder Oaks' counsel from last conference.Thank you all so much for your prayers and support.O frabjous day! Calloo! Callay!
Garden Girl Posted June 8, 2011 Posted June 8, 2011 Well, that's a relief... you know the old saying: Live and Learn... I hope you have done so here and will go forward wiser for the experience, and trusting in the Lord.GG

HeatherAnn Posted June 10, 2011 Posted June 10, 2011 I'm glad everything worked out.... as somebody mentioned, live & learn.Manic depression was mentioned... I read an interesting possible spiritual meaning of it...Wanting to be perfect so much, that one imagines it to be true (the high/manic)...Then somehow realizes they are not perfect & it's an "all or nothing" - so then depressing despair.Realizing nobody's all good or all bad & learning to not get too carried away either way is important.
