If You Are Praying...and Update

So many are taking some time this morning to stop and pray for Tricia and Nathan as she undergoes tests today.

If you are and would like to post a comment of encouragement to them, here's the place to do it. You might include your location as well.

Thanks so much.

Rick Lawrenson

Tricia's PET scan was delayed until 2PM this afternoon, which will bump her biopsy until Thursday. She will still be admitted into the hospital today.

I also thought the "map" idea of where the prayers are originating was great. So I started it. But it's too huge a job! If anyone else has the time and wants to take a stab at it, please go for it. Here's a site that you could use: http://pininthemap.com/.

Praying that whatever is found in these tests will be easily and swiftly remedied and you will be back home with dear little Gwyneth as soon as possible.

We are praying for you all as well as our CF friend who led us to your site. She is in absolute peril. 13 years old and was put on a vent yesterday and it's not working for her. They are switching vents today in hopes of getting her CO2 down. If not, they'll lose her. She is ready to be "listed" for lung transplant if they can get her past this HUGE hurdle. Please pray for her as well because we wouldn't know about you if it weren't for her. Her site is www.CaringBridge.org/Visit/HaleyPalmer
We know that with prayer, ALL things are possible and we saw not only what He has done for Tricia but also Haley was in dire straights last fall (not this bad) and God turned it around and brought her lung function back to 94% and able to go to school and all until suddenly, this turn for the worst that may take her life. I hope you'll share her story with those on your site that they may lift her up as well. God is mighty and powerful and able to heal and overcome ALL these things CF patients fight. We know it's all in His timing but these ladies are touching lives with their stories and winning the lost to Jesus so I pray that He's not even close to finished with them here.

I have told everyone I come across in conversations about your incredible journey. At the vet with my sick kitty, standing inline to see Indy, my 7 year old nephew who says he hates science (we did a biology lesson) so I want the world to know of you and I hope I have encouraged others to think of organ donation. I don't pray (I am a naturalist) but I believe human energy can heal the body and soul. I have been thinking of you all day and have a candle lit. I hope you see it in your heart. Be well.
