Ok, I am sure there is another, easier, way to ask/explain this question, but for now it is aluding me :roll: if someone was sick themselves, or a family member/ loved one was ill, who would they go pray to for their recovery? Also, if the wanted to give the god a gift, what is that called... can't think of the word to save my life, I keep wanting to say they "donated" it, and I KNOW that is wrong. As for the God, I want to say Bast, but deep down, I am pretty sure that is totally wrong. Thanks in advance!!!

I have seen some info about people offering to Horus.

There are examples of magical stelae for instance. See:
http://nefertiti.iwebland.com/religion/magic.htm
There is a magical stelae from the time of Nectanebo (dyn 30) on this page.
Magical stelae were called cippus
The focus of each cippus is an image of the god Horus as a child (depicted naked and with a side-lock)
The idea seems to have been to pour water (rainwater?) over the cippus while reciting spells so that the water would take on magical power.
The water could then be drunk or externally applied.

Isis may also have been associated with healing?

:D No problem. Glad I could help. We all suffer from that tip-of-the-tongue dilemma now and then.

Sekmet was the goddess of healing because being such a fierce goddess she was thought to frighten the sickness away. Doctors were said to be 'Priests of Sekmet'.
