{prayers} needed

I don't generally care too much about the comings and goings of our government; but right now I'm concerned for our family.

Here in Minnesota the government might be shutting down on July 1st, IF an agreed upon budget can't be reached. That means services many need, including us - would stop.

There are some court petitions/filings to keep key services up and running; but who knows what will happen with that.

My concerns lie in Melisa's medical services and her PCA hours. We receive 20% of our monthly income from the state for Michael's paid parent hours as a PCA. This would impact what bills we can pay, what food we can buy, you get the picture...but more importantly - Melisa's BIG surgery is July 7th. How can we afford 3 major surgeries with a 7-12 day hospital stay and all the follow up without her Medicare? We can't.

So, I am just asking you to pray that the services we need, and many others - would stay in place regardless if the MN Government shuts down or not.

Thanks for your prayers.
