Ladies - I don't usually ask for prayers when it comes to garden variety ickys, but I'm begging today!

Let me tell you my schedule:

**Sarah will be confirmed this Saturday - how overjoyed I am!

**My brother, Chris, has brain surgery next Thursday, May 7th.

Now, let me tell you what started last night - a stomach bug. Right now, it's just John Paul. But, you all know what is likely to happen next, right?

Please beg for me that John Paul will recover quickly - he seems fine so far this morning - and that no one else comes down with it. My mom is Sarah's sponsor. If this starts moving through our family, mom will not be able to come and neither will Chris (because he is immunocompromised and obviously doesn't need this little gift before surgery!) which will be devastating to my dd as she is very, very close to her Uncle Chris. And, if this sweeps through our family I won't be able to be there for my brother's surgery.

I'm begging you to beg for me! I know how powerful your prayers are! God's will be done.

Jen - your family is our prayer priority today and this weekend. Abby has lit a candle for S. and is invoking the intercession of Blessed Jacinta and Saint Therese the Little Flower.

Hugs my friend - and prayers for peace.

Oh, no. When it rains, it pours, doesn't it? I'll continue to keep all of you in my prayers! (And I'll let K know when she checks in; I'm sure she'll say a prayer for Sarah.)

Praying for your intentions.


Try grapefruit seed extract and apple cider vinegar to combat the stomach bug.
