Sisterbears sweet Carmen needs our prayers

Carmen is not doing well and needs our prayers. She is having an increase in her seizures and her breathing is very, very labored. Carmen's dr. said the next few days will be very critical. Please, please pray for Lana and her husband during this very difficult time. Also, please pray for sweet, beautiful Carmen.

To read about Carmen go to Lana's blog at
Beautiful Canvas - Homepage

Lana-my prayers are with you, Dave, Lauren and Carmen. I am praying that the medicines keep Carmen comfortable and out of pain. I pray for God to continue to give you and Dave the strength to continue to get through every day. Sending many, many hugs, and prayers to you Lana.

Martina

I know that Lana planned Carmen's party to be a celebration of her life. May they be celebrating, even in their sadness...may Carmen feel their joy in knowing her and loving her, even in her pain.
