Special Prayers Needed for Alicia

There is much that I want to share with you but am limited by time right now. So, I will simply share an urgent prayer request with you and ask for your intercession.

IMG00350-20120130-1048Four year old Alicia from La Gomera is struggling. Several months back we found a sponsor to provide some urgent, tri-weekly medication for her ailing kidneys and anemia, and we saw almost immediate improvement. However, after a few months of improvement, she has taken a sudden turn for the worse. Her mother took her to the national hospital and the doctors told her that they were concerned she would go into cardiac arrest…and then sent her home after telling her to get some tests done that she cannot afford.

We are arranging for Alicia to come in and see our local doctor and have him line-up the specialists she needs. She will definitely need a urologist (we have a great but expensive one in Guatemala City who sees patients for us) and will probably need a cardiologist.

Please pray for Alicia. Pray for healing. Pray that we will be able to get her in promptly to see the doctors. Pray that the doctors will have wisdom. Pray for financial provision to pay for the appointments and follow-up care. Pray.

Thanks!
