Isaac


Please continue to pray for Isaac.  Yesterday, his tumor was removed successfully but it was malignant.  Once he heals from brain surgery, he will have to start cancer treatments.  Isaac is 5 years old.  

I grew up with Isaac's mom, Sarah.  For most of my elementary years, I called her my best friend.  I can only imagine the absolute and utter helplessness and all-consuming worry she must be feeling right now, especially since this, specifically, was a fear of hers.  As a new mom, I worry for my child all the time.  Even obsessively.  And, despite always thinking the worst might happen, I cannot imagine this.  And so my heart aches for Sarah.

I have lit a candle in my home for Isaac.  I am thinking about and praying for him and his family all the time.  But, I feel helpless at this distance and so I am doing the only thing I can.  I ask for your prayers.  As another  blogging friend of Sarah's wrote..."the more people pulling for this little boy the better."

And, if you want, you can follow Isaac's story by clicking here and leave a comment including the place where you are from.  This way, Sarah, Rob, Jonah, Eli, and Isaac will know that the prayers are being lifted up from all over.

Thank you.
