Please Hold In Your Thoughts

Photobucket

Photobucket

This afternoon my family will be travelling up to London. They will be staying in accommodation provided by Great Ormond Street Childrens' Hospital.

Daniel is scheduled to have his operation tomorrow morning, 3rd January.  We do not know exactly what time but he has to be on the ward by 7.30 a.m.

We all wish that surgery was not necessary but it is the only answer as all other treatments have failed.  He has been through so much in the last four months and, as you know, he is only two years old (he was two last August).

You supported me so much last year through my trials and now I ask all of you to hold little Daniel in your prayers and thoughts.

Please pray the Lord guides the hand of the surgeon, that He gives strength to Becky and Dean who are going through this ordeal with their little son and that Daniel makes a speedy and permanent recovery with no lasting after effects.

Tomorrow is going to be a tense day for us all as you can imagine.

I shall be lighting a candle tonight and again tomorrow morning and asking the Lord's blessing and protection on this sweet and beloved little boy.

Thank you, dear friends and readers.  God bless you all.

May God bless,

One can only imagine how you are feeling by imagining it was happening to our own grandchild, and that thought makes me feel quite ill with worry.  I know my grandson Mason's parents would be devastated to be in your children's place Jeannette,  so my good wishes and vibes go with you all for a splendid recovery.

Morning, well it is almost noon and I have just got up.   This horrible cold and flu bug hit me like a tons of bricks but it always seems when we slow down or stop work we get sick.   Chuckie is down at the cafe helping the folks as he is just the kindest man.   The new owners were to have all their training down by the end of the year but they had to many irons in the fire and therefore they did not come so last night I was making biscuits and muffins for the restaurant.
I am not sure what the surgery is for you grandson but we will definitely commit him and the family to prayer.
Continue to keep us posted.

BLessings,

Lori and Chuck

I hope everything will go well with Daniel`s operation Jeannette, I can`t even imagine what you are all going through just now. It is almost too much to bear having your child or grandchild go through so much at such a tender age. I`ll pray extra hard for your darling little boy and I`ll await your update.

Much Love  Sandra xxxx
