Ask:
We found out this morning that my cousin slit his wrists last night. He called his brother, who called 911. He is in the hospital now, and will have to stay there a min. of 72 hours on watch. At the same time, his grandmother went into a coma the day before in another state, after a series of 7 seizures. His poor mother is with his grandmother, who just came back out of the coma. He called his mom last night and she tried to convince him to call 911, but when he wouldn't, she called his brother.
If you've read some of my other posts, you'll know that this is just one more thing in a line of tragedy's my family has had to go through. His family really needs your prayers, but especially my cousin. My sister's death was the start of his downward spiral and he has been a mess ever since. He really needs help, please pray he gets that help.
Thanks!

Edited to add: This will be postponing our trip to MN that was to bury my grandmother, who passed during the winter. The ground was frozen and the tiny cemetery didn't have a way to thaw the ground for burial. We will be going up next week, instead.

Answer:
Thanks for all of the prayers. My cousin seems to be doing ok, considering. He actually doesn't even remember doing it. He's got a bit of a chemical imbalance and has memory blackouts sometimes. I just found that out. I think they are going to have to put him on some sort of medication, to help him out.
