Please Pray


My heart is so heavy this week.

I've made friends with other moms whose kids also have Aplastic Anemia & a few of us email every week or so.

We vent to each other. Share our fears. Share our joys. Share that we can't believe we are all stuck in this boat together with kids with this crazy terrible disease.

Well, one of the kids, Drew, had a bone marrow transplant (BMT) 4 months ago & has been sailing along defying all the odds of possible BMT complications.

Just this Sunday he started to come down with something so his mom took him to the ER at Boston Children's Hospital. He was admitted & by Monday morning he was on a ventilator in the ICU. Just stunning considering on Saturday he was outside playing with a friend & even still looked good when his mom took him to the ER on Sunday.

Would you take a minute & please just pray for Drew & his family?

This precious boy was born smiling & I pray that his parents see his smile for years & years & years & years to come.

This is a picture of Drew & his mom, Jen, on his 100th day celebration post-BMT.

Thank you for your thoughts & prayers!!
