Prayers Needed

Hi Everyone - Some friends of ours need your prayers with them during this trying time. Their 2 1/2 year old little boy was diagnosed with SMA when he was about 10 months old. Spinal muscular atrophy is a rare degenerative genetic disorder that affects the spinal cord and nerves, resulting in muscle wasting and weakness. In other words, things we take for granted such as coughing and eating are next to impossible for him. Recently he was admitted to the hospital and is currently up and down from day to day. He is not doing well at all and his parents have started preparing to say good-bye. He is a fighter and continues to do so even in his weakened state. Please pray for him and his family during this very difficult time. Parents - please thank God that your little one is able to climb on the couch and run...it truly is a blessing.
