Thanks, all of you. Please see reply 13 below.

I try not to post very much that's personal here, in part because some of my relatives knew long ago that I post here (I no longer mention the board name to any of them and never told them my user name) and wouldn't be happy with some of what I post. (I love them all, whether their political views are to the right or left of mine, but I don't want to discuss politics with them.)

And I won't be going into detail about what the health problems are, again because too many details would be identifiable, and it would be a very long list. But they affect a number of family members, the oldest in her 90s, and some of the health problems are potentially life- or limb-threatening, as well as causing a lot of pain and stress, not just for those with serious health problems but those who are their family caregivers, who are developing their own health problems from the stress.

I don't need any prayers for myself. I'm pretty much okay, other than losing sleep (others in the family are, too) and losing my voice a couple of times lately from all the phone calls about the health problems.

I know many of you are dealing with your own health issues. I do say a prayer and send good vibes when I see those requests, but I don't always post a reply as well, and I apologize for that.

If you can spare even a moment to send some positive energy to my relatives who are ill, it would be greatly appreciated.

to all of you.
