Hello FRiends,
I know I've gone into lurker mode after being active here on a daily basis for so very long. I've come to you today to humbly ask for prayers from the very best Prayer Warriors I know. You've come through so many times in the past, and this time I make the request with the permission of a friend of mine.
She is the mother of a 2 boys and also a 5 month old baby who has Down's Syndrome. Her baby girl "G" is currently undergoing a battery of tests and they both have been in the hospital for a week or so, with more tests coming.
Baby "G" has an enlarged heart, and one of her lungs is smaller than the other. Her mother, my friend, told me the CAT scan "doesn't look good". They've been giving her extra oxygen to try to inflate the smaller lung. Her lungs have fluid in them, and the latest test will be a biopsy to test the fluid & determine the cause. This is as best I can recall from what I was told, and if something here doesn't make sense, consider it my own error.
This precious baby is still smiling at her mama and is such a trooper while the doctors poke & prod her to find out the cause of her condition. Her mother is hanging on to hope, but she could use some additional prayers to help strengthen her resolve. She is afraid as any parent would be for her daughter not knowing what the prognosis is for her.
Please if you can find a moment to send them both your prayers, especially to Baby "G". She's a precious little darling who already has brought so much happiness to her family. Thank you very much.
Right on. Another push to remind me to daily pray the Rosary.
Hah..Great to see ya pullin out the old guns Gramma.

Gianna hmmm curious about the roots of such a beautiful name.
Sounds like a name of a fancy perfume you would find at Macy’s.
We are pulling for ya peanut and hoping your body is healing and not stressing to hard this morning.
Dearest FRiends & Prayer Warriors... this is a very brief update as I don't have a lot of information, and am without words.
I am so terribly sorry to share the news that Baby Gianna has passed on sometime in the past couple of hours, and is now resting without pain or sickness in the light, warmth and love of God's arms.
Please extend your prayers to her mom & dad, and her 2 brothers who I know wish she was in theirs. Thank you for your faith & your wonderful prayers for Gianna, her mom & dad and her family.
Prayer BUMP

Notre père, qui êtes aux cieux!
Que votre nom soit sanctificié. Que votre règne vienne.
Que votre volonté soit faite, sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donnez-nous aujourd'hui notre poindre ce jour.
Pardonnez-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi a ceux, qui nous ont offensés,
et ne nous soumetez pas à la tentation, mais délivrez-nous du mal.
Car c'est à toi qu'appartiènne, le régne, la puissance et la gloire, pour les siècles des siècles.
Amen.
Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

OMG, I am so sorry. That is beyond sad. I will pray very hard for the family and I just know that God is caring for Gianna now, keeping her safe and at peace.
Prayers up.
So sorry to hear that little Gianna has left us. Prayers of condolence for her family.
Gianna lives forever in the loveliest part of heaven where the most beautiful innocent souls go.
Ahhh uh.
Well Giannas name meaning Gods Love is now with our Holy Father.
Prayers and love to all who are grieving.
Very Sad News Update
Baby Gianna went to be with the Lord today and she is now free from pain and with Him in Paradise.
Please pray for her parents and family in their time of need.
Thank You and God Bless
