Hello! It's been a couple weeks, so I think it's time for an update.
We're doing good. I have been learning a lot about magic/prayer/psychic phenomena, several of my favored deities, metaphysics (I would maybe prefer less difficult methods, but this has nonetheless been an excellent way to put Plotinus through his paces), and the nature of my situation. The good news is that the attacks on our persons are successfully being mitigated: I've consistently slept well for two-and-a-half weeks, my physical health is recovering, and my family is having no problems out of the ordinary. The bad news is that the situation is so far gone that "fixing it" is not possible: I'm going to be dealing with these attacks indefinitely. Oh well, I suppose that's fine: I like my deities and having the excuse to spend more time with them seems good to me. Since I'm no longer doing triage, I'm taking time right now to get my bearings and put into place proactive measures (rather than just taking reactive ones).
One of the things I've learned is to be very focused in my prayers, so with that in mind I'd like to update my entry in the list to keep up with the situation on the ground:
Jay (sdi), Liz, their children, and their property: for protection from the spiritual attacks being sent at them; for recovery from the harmful effects of those attacks; and for inspiration in meeting the challenges raised by those attacks; in a manner benefiting those involved and causing no harm.
I wanted to thank you all again for your continued prayers—they're clearly going to very good effect! I also wanted to give special thanks to those of you who have gone the extra mile and reached out separately to offer your love, support, and aid: these have been instrumental in helping us to understand and work through the situation.
