[Magdalen] Prayer request

[Marion Thompson]

This is for my son, Chris, for an upturn in his affairs.  He phoned this 
morning. "What's up?" I asked, because there is always something up.  
"Do we have a history of heart problems in the family?"  "No."  So, for 
the last long time he has had irregular heart rhythmn.  "Stress!" I 
immediately said.  He saw a doctor yesterday and ya-da ya-da.  Not clear 
that he thought to suggest stress, but that's where my money is.  That 
medical exploration isn't over.   His crazy and difficult ex, his 
irresponsible nominal student daughter who's living with him and who is 
a financial drain as well as a worry, his working virtually for minimum 
wage although they keep promising upgrades and the possibility of 
F.T.E., all round and round in an endless cycle.

On the brighter side, he has just made contact with a former colleague 
in the high-end car business and that may well come to something.  He 
has just done two TV auditions and has a call-back for one.

Really, he is so over-due for a positive and permanent turn-around!  
Mothers never stop worrying.
