Praying

We've been praying a lot the last couple of days. One of Belle's little friends, Adri, is in the hospital waiting to have surgery on Friday to remove a brain tumor. Her parents, Josh and Natalie, are dear friends of ours. We are hurting for all of them right now.

For a couple of weeks Adri had been having absence seizures and was scheduled for an MRI Monday. Sunday night she had a bad seizure so they called 911 and she was taken to the hospital where she had a CAT scan and an MRI. The doctors found a tumor in her brain. Unbelievable. Now they are in the hospital awaiting brain surgery. The surgeon is optimistic about the surgery and thinks he should be able to remove it. We are praying.

We love you, Josh, Natalie and Adri!

Here's a picture of Adri. She's the cute blonde in the brown shirt. (This picture is several months old, she is almost 3 now.)
