Prayers, please.

We have been blessed the past 3 months to have no issues. Last Sunday, Anna suddenly developed chest congestion with a wet and heavy cough. We have upped her therapy and today she started an antibiotic. She is not eating well either. Needless to say we are worried and asking that you please pray she get over this quickly.  .

She’s outside and I am going crazy. 


It has been a beautiful and early spring but having Anna outside and playing causes me so much worry.  It is in the dirt and mud and water, I am told, that the evil “pseudos” lurk, waiting for a chance to invade her lungs. How does one avoid these things that will make her sick for the rest of her life?

Every time she falls I want to wash her hands. I want to yank her fingers out of her mouth as she chews on them. I want to strap her in a stroller and never let her out.  I want to slather her in hands sanitizer…..

I want her to be happy. I want her to play. I want to see her curls bounce in the sunlight.  I want her to bounce the ball she loves so much.  I want her to live… for a long time.
