We stand with you. Amen to all of your prayers

[caww]

Hello Amy.....I've been watching the developments and so very sorry this couple is facing such a difficult decision. What I do know is whatever they decide God will be with them and so should all their friends and family. This affliction is often brought on by a virus/infection. As you know the outlook isn't favorable for the long haul. Therefore I sooo sympathize with the father for wanting to 'protect' his son from suffering....

Let's pray together,...... Lord Jesus it is so very hard to understand these extreme and difficult positions when those we care about face decisions which are beyond our ability to relate unless we ourselves have faced these. ....But you know the way in which you want this wee one to go, and his parents, and so we ask that your wisdom would be given them to do exactly according to your will for this dear child. Help them to see your way through the fog of uncertainty as they struggle on this path...and give all those standing with them the love and understanding they will need for the parents as and when it's needed most..... ..And Lord bring your loving and sustaining hands to the aide of this little child whom we know you love more than any can. Carry him through this as you will and desire so that your will and purposes are entirely fulfilled.

We lift to you all surrounding this child completely into your hands as well..and may all be touched to see your face. And this for your glory and honor....In your name we pray...Amen.

P.S. And Amy I leave with you these flowers, a scented candle and a window to gaze out of to comfort your tears...He sees every one.

I have a similar autonomic cardiovascular anomaly. I’m old, still here, and can’t figure out how or why. Keep the faith. Prayers up for Richie.

[Yaelle]

Praying hard. Poor baby boy. So unfair. Full healing I pray.

Dear Lord, You have Richie in Your hands and Richie will be the stronger from being so very close to you...but Richie’s parents and those who love him and them will be sorely tested as this plays out and I ask you to give them the strength of faith in Your goodness. Father, don’t let the adults ignore the example being set by the child and fall into despair and second-guessing...please place Your loving arms around them and help them cope with what they see as a needless slap against an innocent and beautiful child...give them strength and peace and allow them to appreciate Your goodness as they watch over Richie and his struggles...make them stronger.

Amen.

Found this :::
An infection precedes the onset of transverse myelitis about 50% of the time. Transverse myelitis often develops following viral infections such as varicella zoster (the virus that causes chicken pox and shingles), herpes simplex, cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr, influenza, echovirus, HIV, hepatitis A, and rubella.

Rubella is on of the vaccinations they give children.say to vaccinate children against polio to ‘help ‘ not get it. So I wonder if polio vaccine isn’t a risk too.

2018 is the first case of it!!

Correction,,, the first case in Michigan. Too early and writing getting ready for work.

[TianaHighrider]

This might be their diagnosis, but I still wonder about the vaccinations causing it. This is related to the same diseases the vaccines were for.

Prayers continue for Richie and his family. Hold them in my heart.
