Need major prayers for our daughter...

My 9 year old was suffering from anemia and they couldn't figure out why. Yesterday we went to the Children's Hospital, and they found a water balloon size growth on her liver. They admitted her and today she is undergoing major surgery to remove the growth and part of her liver. We do not know if the growth is cancerous or not. This is not at all what we expected, and to say we were shocked would be an understatement. Please pray for her. She is our angel. Yesterday she was undergoing a blood transfusion, and she looked at me and said, "Mom, you look tired, you should take a nap." Here she is the one sick, and she is worried about us.

We are suppose to leave on Wed. to go to Guat to pick up our son. We think only one of us will be able to travel. We are trying to balance her needs with the needs of our son. We are praying for good news...

Oh my. That is a lot going on at once. It sounds like you have a very strong little girl. Know that my thoughts and prayers are with all of you and that your daughter is soon well, with this behind her.

I am praying and believing for God's healing. "By His strips you are healed"! You speak that over her every day until you bring in through Jesus into existance! This is not God's will for her. All is well.
