Dear Moms~
Please storm Heaven with prayers for a little boy in our home schooling community whose family also goes to my church. He was taken to the hospital this weekend for dehydration from a sickness, only to find that he had a brain tumor the size of a lemon!

It is definitively cancer.

He took a turn for the worst last night and spiked a fever and is not doing well.

He has 12 brothers and sisters. All of the kids are beautiful...and are all home schooled.

The family needs a lot of prayer...as does this little boy.

I will update when I know more.

**UPDATE 10-26-12**

Met with the mom and dad at the hospital today. I gave them a spiritual bouquet from friends, and added all of your prayers and intentions to the card. THANK YOU SO MUCH! The prayers are really sustaining this family.

The little boy smiled for the first time yesterday! They are hoping he will "graduate" out of the ICU either tonight or tomorrow.

It is likely he will be undergoing chemo and radiation, but I think he needs some recovery time from the operation first.

Please pray for a "COMPLETE recovery", as requested by his mother.

THANK YOU ALL!!

Oh, no. What a horrifyingly scary turn of events.

Maggie, please tell this family I am praying for them!
