Request

Most of you know that I have an aunt with Downs Syndrome who is very dear to me. If you have not already, you can read more about her here.

Last night we received a call from one of my uncles to let us know that she is in the hospital with a very bad case of pneumonia. She has always been scared of doctors, hospitals, even band aids used to make her shiver and she tried to avoid them at all costs. So I'm sure that this whole experience is being very traumatic for her.

Though there's not much we can do for her physically right now but, I would appreciate if you would consider joining us in prayer for her.

  12. I will pray for a quick recovery and less fear. I'm praying that a nurse or aide will befriend her and she will find trust in that person or more than one person so this is not all so hard for her. Blessings
