Bipolar Cousin, Dad's Work Problems

[Romans1513]

Well, I just had a very depressing phone conversation with my mom... need some major prayers on a couple issues if you have a minute please...

First, my cousin. She is almost 17 years old and is severely bipolar. She just got kicked out of yet another foster home, for bad behavior, etc. so I guess things aren't going so well, now she's in a detention center. A bit of history- her parents (my mom's adopted brother and his wife) lost custody when she was 2 and she went to live w/ my grandparents with her sister. She's been having major problems for several years now, resulting in various foster home and group home placements, living with my family until my sister found her cutting herself, and spending a lot of time in the detention center. To make matters worse, she just found out that her dad (they've kept contact, and since my grandpa died he's the only dad she has) might not be her real dad (I didn't know this either). So they're doing the paternity test now... definitely NOT what she needs. So please pray that he is her dad, and that she is able to improve and be able to live a normal life. She turns 18 next year, and things aren't so nice after that...

Ok, sorry that was so long, but I have another one...
My dad has been in the process of buying into a business to become co-owner. To make a long story short, he and his partner are having issues that could end in major financial problems for my family or possibly my dad splitting off into his own company.

Thanks soooooo much in advance. I really need prayers for this stuff.
