My 34 year old son goes in tomorrow to finally get a shot that hopefully will help the sciatica/piriformus pain. He hasn’t been able to stand or move comfortably for weeks due to the excruciating pain. We are thankful he is getting it tomorrow. We pray this will work and lead him to healing and strength.

Lot's of medical things that are surrounding at the moment. My mom is having a CT soon to be sure she is still in remission from cancer as she has been cancer free for one year now and we pray it doesn't return. My boyfriend is dealing with quite a bit medically at the moment and still no answers. Hopefully, doctors can figure it out soon to give him something in order to be well again. Also through his early stages of sobriety. My son is also due for his cardiologist appointment soon as he was born with a heart defect and had surgery as a baby. We pray his heart stays strong and no more heart surgeries are in his future. Lots of health concerns and praying only for strength and healing.

I’ve been praying for 7 years, believing for breakthrough and for God to get the glory. Thank you, God bless.

Thanks be to GOD who orchestrated Viv's acceptance to Cincinnati Children's Hospital, the number one hospital in the country for her condition. Viv and her mother were airlifted from Blank Children's PICU on Saturday. Andrew and I drove down and arrived safely late Saturday night. They have run multiple tests and we are still anxiously waiting for them to schedule a cardiac MRI. Once they have that taken, the ENT doctors can access if her breathing tube can be removed. We have a diagnosis, but they are checking to see the extent of it and what is affected. She has been sedated throughout most of this, but today she opened her eyes for a few minutes and was able to see her parents. Please pray for healing. She is responding to treatment they started yesterday to begin to shrink the hemangioma tumors in her body. Please pray for shrinkage of her tumors and that her tests can be completed soon. Please pray for stabilizing her heart rate and clearing her lungs. Lastly, please pray for a room to open up at the Ronald McDonald House so Andrew and Disa can have some solitude and a comfortable bed and shower. This will probably be a few weeks stay. Thank you for your continued prayers.
