Prayer Reqest..

I would like to ask any of you who read my blog or Monkey's blog to pray for a friend of ours. His name is Jax and he is currently on the Liver transplant waiting list. He is 9 months old and has Biliary Atresia, the same disease Monkey was diagnosed with. Jax is not a candidate for a living donor due to complications with his portal vein. Please pray that someone says yes to giving him a chance at life.



It is a bitter sweet prayer, to ask for one child to gain a life due to someone else losing theirs.  Trust me, I know.   While Monkey was a candidate for a living donor, we received the call before we had the chance to further explore that option.  We were veru blessed and Monkey was only on the waiting list for a total of 28 days.  I can only hope and pray that Jax has such a short wait.  He has already been on the list for 14 days.  Please keep little Jax in your thoughts as well as the families who are saying yes to saving other lives.

  4. He and his family are in my prayers... I remember when Lil Kiwi went in for surgery that was one of the questions that was brought up. That wanted to know that IF something went wrong were we willing to donate. It was horrid to think about but I know if I had to I would have said yes...
