Rick Santorum has canceled his Sunday morning campaign appearances because his young daughter has been admitted to the hospital in Philadelphia, a spokesman for Santorum said.
"Rick and his wife Karen are admitting their daughter Bella to Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia this evening. The campaign will cancel Rick's upcoming Sunday morning Florida campaign schedule. However, Rick intends to return to Florida and resume the campaign schedule as soon as is possible," Santorum communications director Hogan Gidley said in an email.
Gidley said nothing more should be read into Santorum's scaled-back schedule, explaining: "No one is getting out."
Santorum has spoken frequently about Bella, who has ongoing health issues, during his 2012 campaign.
Oh you sweet baby...May our Lord put His hands on you and make you well...
Please Lord, hear our prayers...
Prayers for the Santorum family.
For those interested
Dear Lord, be with little Bella. Give her family comfort during this time of illness. Lord they know they have been blessed to have been able to have 3 yrs with her so far. I pray that they may have many more years.
she looks like a china doll—a child of the Heavenly Father
Oh! So adorable. Once again, Dear Lord be with her and the family.
Meet our daughter Bella

Prayers up for Bella and the Santorums.
Bella was born with a genetic malfunction worse than Downs Syndrome. She was not expected to live beyond a couple of weeks. She is now 3 yrs old. They feel blessed to have had her this long.
If recall serves me, it was during a Iowa debate or similar that Santorum mentioned just a few days? weeks? earlier his daughter was having problems?
Do we know what type? It just makes me so sad to read she is in the hospital.
I don’t know how to ask the question...what are the problems his daughter is suffering?
Is there anything we can help with or is it strictly in Gods hands?
Sometimes it makes me angry to feel so helpless, I can’t imagine what being the parent must feel like.
God bless the Santorum family! One certainly must respect his faith, he is so hopeful, when I think I would be so angry.
No pain hurts a parent like a sick child.
God Bless her and let her be fine.
Thanks for the information, God bless this family, and I know she is in good hands, his very own.
The honesty and beauty of Santorum’s love for his daughter shines through in that picture. God Bless All Of Them! But, most of all, Dear God, lift little Bella up and keep her safe in Your healing hands. Prayers tonight for the family.
Bella was born with a genetic condition and was not expected to live much past a week or two. She is now 3 yrs old and she and the family need all our prayers.
Picture at the posting I am pinging from.
Blessings to Rick - Bella and his family.
My prayers are with the Santorum family.
Thank you father for your healing! AMEN.
Praying for little Bella and the whole Santorum family.
> “Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia” There is no better place.
That's an excellent hospital, indeed. I'm sure they'll take good care of her.
My heart goes out to this family. God Bless them, and God please grant continued life and improved health to little Bella.
A prayer for Bella and the Santorum family.
