Prayer Warriors Needed

Meet my Aunt Jean and my Aunt Jane (yes they are twins and Aunt Jean is on the left.) Aunt Jean has had MS since she was 35. She has fought this for awhile now. We pray daily for a miracle of healing for her but right now there is more.

We (my family) are advocates for Multiple Sclerosis. We even do a golf tournament in memory of my grandfather. All proceeds go to MS. As well as Walk MS. We pray for a cure for MS, so my Aunt Jean will at least be able to get around. This is a lady who has always been athletic and even had a career of a Physical Therapist.

Something that my sweet Papaw (our angel looking down on us now) has taught our whole family is… family comes first. So, I am interrupting my normal blogging for an urgent prayer request.

Aunt Jean already has to use a walker around the house and has to be in a wheelchair outside of the home. My uncle has been there for her from day one, lovingly, unconditionally! (Thank you Lord for him!) Working, taking care of her and taking care of the home and their girls when Aunt Jean just can’t get around.

I am asking for two prayers… prayers for my uncle to continue to have strength.

More importantly, Aunt Jean has been really sick since this past weekend. With a high fever, can’t eat, has lost all mobility in her legs and one arm. She has a Urinary Tract Infection. If you know anything about MS, you know that with MS comes an immune deficiency. Her body is having a hard time fighting this infection. The neurologist has told them he is hoping that after the infection is gone (which will be hard to get rid of), she will have her mobility back. However, it is possible that it won’t come back because of the MS and infection combined.

My Aunt Jean is very dear to me… her and I have had heart to heart conversations. I need her to be able to travel from the west coast to see her family, so I can have more of those conversations! The only way I know how to help from this distance is prayers. And prayers are the best way! I am begging for prayers. I am asking you, my blogging friends and readers to please pray for her. She has been through episodes of not being able to walk and having blind moments in the past but “normal” came back, we are praying for a miracle. We pray for her daily but this is something I feel needs more than just my family’s prayers.

I’m asking my online community to come together and be prayer warriors for a Christian lady with two sweet children and a husband that loves her very much…  and a niece’s heart that hurts for her Aunt.

Matthew 9:22 says “Jesus turned and saw her. “Take heart, daughter,” he said, “your faith has healed you.” And the woman was healed from that moment.”

Please leave a comment that you are praying, I would love to show her how many strangers, family and friends are praying for her. The hope and strength that would give her and her sweet family could be life changing!

God bless you all!
