Re: Prayers needed for Sheila

Jen,

Thank you so much for letting us know. I have been following her posts on facebook and I just hate that she is in any kind of pain at all. I hope this hospital stay is able to get things under control, and bring her platelets up for a chemo treatment. I'm sure this is what she is hoping for.

I want you to know that I adore your Mom. Thank goodness I was able to meet her in person once in San Antonio. I love her like a sister and I wish and pray nothing but the best for her. She is the picture of courage and strength and I wish I could do something more than just pray, but I believe our prayers our powerful too. I continue to pray for her comfort and for peace.

~alice
