Please pray for a 7 yr old with Leukemia

I would like to ask for prayer for Jacquelyn. She's 7 yrs old and was diagnosed with luekemia in late June. The prognosis isn't that great, the doctors give her no more than a 50/50 chance to survive. She has been taking chemotherapy treatments every other week and has been a trooper and so brave.

She is supposed to be having another treatment this week but she can't because she is too sick. She has a blood fungus and some kind of infection and she's in extreme pain. They have her on morphine. I'm just so concerned about her. She's such a beautiful little girl, so full of life and personality and I know she's in God's hands but we all love her so much we want her here with us.

My daughter-in-law said that she teared up in front of her the other and Jacquelyn hugged her and told her don't worry I'll be okay. Saturday, they let my grandchildren see her and they read her a book but she's been too sick most of the time to have any visitors except her parents.

I ask everyone I see to pray for her and I know how faithful so many of you are and I'd like you to add your prayers.

I wish I had a picture of her, you'd all fall in love with her immediately.

Amy, that would be a great idea. Links from the Poetry thread to these children who need helpful prayers would be great! And links to other threads! Super idea.

Someone told me about this song so I went looking for the lyrics.

I consider myself a fairly grizzled man, but I had the bad luck of listening to this song for the first time while watching my 4 year old daughter dance for me to the music on wonderful Saturday afternoon. I never thought that a song would bring tears to my eyes, but it did.

Jacquelyn is not doing very well.
The inflamation is very large and she is in excruciating pain and there has been no improvement yet.
Please pray hard.

I'm like you, I woke up this morning wondering if they could give epidurals to children. Well, I looked it up on the internet and it said they could so I had my daughter-in-law (she calls her every day) ask. Well, the upshot is that in her condition it would be too dangerous.

I don't know what they are giving her but it isn't morphine, but it sounds pretty powerful. My daughter-in-law says that she's just whimpering rather than crying and sometimes screaming now. She has had some sleep but not enough. The sad thing is that she was in the other hospital for 10 days and they never diagnosed her and so the problem just got worse.

I pray that God will take this little one into his arms, be it on earth or heaven, and that she be out of pain. In the meantime, I pray that the doctors do NOT allow her to be in excruciating pain!

God please help this little child. Jaquelyn is your child; let us remember how precious she is to you, and how your hand is with us even in pain. God, I believe in you. Heal Jaquelyn...relieve her pain.

Eternal God, please remember little Jacquelyn in Your grace. Amen.
