Hi all,

I am temporarily breaking my Lenten fast from the boards to ask for a very special prayer request.

My niece's best friend's son has just been diagnosed with leukemia. His name is Manny, and he is only 3 years old. As a result of the chemo, his bowels have temporarily shut down, and the doctors are doing all they can think of to evacuate his intestines. In the meantime, he is in a lot of pain, the poor little thing.

As if that isn't enough to worry about, the parents are taking their 3 month old daughter in for an MRI to rule out a possible brain tumor.

May the Lord give this family comfort and faith in this time of trial.

Thanks.

I will be praying .This can be extremely tiring and exhausting on a family our friends child has been having treatment for 2 yrs now he is only 5yo now and has 1 more yr to go .
   our little grandson loves to pray for other children so I shall give him this prayer request too.
May They find comfort in Our Mothers arms at this time

This makes me so thankful that we have only been dealing with 6 weeks of the flu. I will be praying for this family. Please update us on their situation.
