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.
Praise God for the good news about Jacquelyn!
Children are our most prized possessions; a gift of value without measure. Everything else in this world pales into insignificance when compared to this precious gift.
Life in this world can be a series of trials and tests. The manner in which we handle these trials determines our character. Dealing with the suffering of children is the toughest trail we can face in this journey through life.
We are told that in the end our lives are but a twinkling of the eye, yet when faced with trials such as these, for us time seems to pass inexorably slow.
May God continue to shine His grace down upon Jacquelyn, her family and her friends, in Jesus' name.
How awesome! A co-worker of mine went through the same thing with his stem cells for non-Hodgkins lymphoma. He's been doing great and just got married last Sunday!
Prayers of thanksgiving and prayers for continued success!

Thank you, dear Lord, for hearing our prayers and answering according to Your will.
Thanks for posting good news.
Prayers for a little one.
Thank GOD - tell Jacquelyn we are still praying for her!!
God bless you all. There are no words, only prayers.
Oh God love this angel who is going through more than a child should. I had a sister who died from leukemia many years ago when it was a certain death diagnosis. A reason I donate monthly to St Jude's. Treatment for this disease has come so far since that time and I rejoice at this news of improvement of your dear granddaughter. I was unaware until the Tonk ping today and will add her, her family, and you to our prayers here.

A Child's Prayer for JacquelynLord, teach a little child to pray,And then accept my prayer; For thou canst hear the words I say, For thou art everywhere. A little sparrow cannot fall Unnoticed, Lord, by thee: And though I am so young and small, Thou dost take care of me. Teach me to do the thing that's right And when I sin, forgive; And make it still my chief delight To serve thee while I live. Amen

You do know that when she's better we'll expect to have a party...at your place.

God is good.
Matthew 4:23-25
23And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people. 24Then His fame went throughout all Syria; and they brought to Him all sick people who were afflicted with various diseases and torments, and those who were demon-possessed, epileptics, and paralytics; and He healed them. 25Great multitudes followed Him--from Galilee, and from Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and beyond the Jordan.
