Prayer Request Update on Mama Gail

Please continue to pray for Gail.  She underwent abdominal exploratory surgery yesterday, to find the source of substantial blood loss she has been experiencing.  They think they know the source and did some repair, but are not sure. 

Her bone marrow has not started producing yet, since the chemo ended, and that is complicating matters as well.

Our hearts are very heavy for our friends.  They live over 2 hours away, and we are not able to be there for them.  Also, we have all been sick, and would not be allowed to visit Gail any way.

If the Lord burdens your heart, please hold them up in prayer.  If you are local, please consider going by to visit.  She is in Weustoff Hospital.

Thank you,

Alesha

And no, it isn't political!  (just in case you were wondering!) πŸ™‚

Some days, the Lord send me an extra special blessing – just for me!  Today was one of those days.

Vanessa, at A Sweet Fragrance, shared her thoughts on "People, not Vegetables".  It really touched my heart.  I think you will be blessed by it as well.  I especially loved her use of Scripture!  I had never thought about it in those terms before.

Thanks, Vanessa!

A Prayer Request

Please pray for my friend, Gail…known to those who love her as "Mama Gail".

She has completed chemo treatment for lymphoma, and has received a clean CAT/PET scan. 

However, she is now hospitalized with pneumonia.  Her recovery is also complicated by Hepatitis C.  There are also some other very serious issues that have arisen that have the doctors very concerned.

Also, please pray for her husband Mike, who is understandably worried, and who is dealing with health issues of his own.

Thank you so much,

Alesha
