Would you please offer up a prayer or two for my extended family? There are several crises taking place right now, very confusing and upsetting, but my oldest brother is in the hospital, possibly with severe liver damage. My parents are also not well. Thank you, and as always the intentions of this board are on my heart.

Updated: 10-22: My brother is doing extremeley poorly. I am on my way to NY right now...There's talk of a transplant, but he's not a good candidate for a variety of reasons. There are many facets to this family situation that I can't get into, but please storm heaven!!


Update 10/26: My brother Sean passed into eternal life on 10/22. His liver was too badly damaged and he was never stable enough to transfer him to the transplant hospital. My family is devastated, but we are consoled by God's mercy...my brother was able to receive annointing just before he died. This truly has brought us peace. Thank you all for the prayers.
