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.

Jacquelyn, we are asking God to care for you, to help you feel better, to show the doctors and nurses what they need to do to help you, and to let you know that He is with you so you are not alone. Always remember that God loves you and all your family loves you and many other people do, too.

[Canticle_of_Deborah]

Will do.

As one who believes that we can never be called to prayer too often, I make no apologies if any of you have already been pinged by others to this thread.

Please join us in prayer for Jacquelyn and her family.

Father, I have seen you heal the sick - I have seen those who "didn't have a prayer" be healed by your hand. Please, let it be so for little Jaqueline. I call on you, knowing you are God...

Oh Tiki,I am so sorry for her and her mom and all who know and love her. I got behind in my rosaries this week,so I will go right in and say a few decades for all of the family. Mary will take my prayers and give them to the One Who will know what to do for each of them,and you,and me.

Sometimes it is almost unbearable to think about the pain and sadness so many people have to bear every night and wake up with every morning.I will pray for a miracle for Jaqueline and for an abundance of hope and trust for everyone else.

[tiki]

Thank you so much.
