Unhappy Please pray

I am being a tad selfish here but I wanted to post a thread begging for prayers for Bailey. She was referred to us on 6/7. Since then our case has dragged on for various reasons. Now it seems she may have Leukemia. They did the test late Friday and hopefully I will know something on Tuesday or Wednesday. Please pray that this dear, sweet baby does not have Leukemia or any serious illness. Yes I ask this because I do not want to lose her referral but I also ask this because I can not imagine an infant having such a serious illness so early in life. Please send positive thoughts and prayers her way. I am beside myself with worry over her.

Thanks,

Amanda
