Jim:...A 53 year old man with Abdominal Aneurysm....................June 21,2000
Jim was just diagnosed with Abdominal Aneutysm. He is scheduled for surgery
July 31th 2000 or as sooner, if any cancelation, He will be called. He needs to go out of the town for this.
The gravest threat an aneurysm poses is that it will burst and cause a stroke or life-threatning hemorrhage. But even if it doesn't rupture, a large anerysm can impede circulationand promote unwanted blood-clot formation.
Jim and his wife Alice needs our prayers so Jim gets his surgery before it burst
and for strength.

Angele:.A 16 year old girl with Systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE)...........May19, 2000.
This disease of a 1000 faces because in general, no two people with this form of the
disease will have the same symptoms. It can affect almost any organ of the body.
Symptoms
Although lupus can affect any part of the body, the most common symptoms of patients with lupus are skin involvement, joint pain, kidney involvement, as well as heart and lung problems.
Unfortunately, the cause of lupus is unknown at this time, but there seems to be environmental, hormonal and genetic factors involved.
We will not be able to learn the cause of lupus until medical research can fully understand how the ifunctions. Fortunately scientific research into the cause and cure of lupus is underway. This research has already led to the improvement of tests, and a greater ability to predict when will occur.
As you can read for yourself we need prayers for those children affected with this
disease and for a cure.

Bobby:....A 38 year old man with kidney disease......................March 22, 2000
Bobby married his high school sweetheart and together have a 16 year old son. About two
years ago Bobby had both kidney removed because his kidneys were so huge and diseased.
He was put on the hemodialisis machine three times a week. His sister Debra wanted to give
him one of her kidneys but because of her high blood pressure she was turned down.
God bless this girl for showing the love for her brother. In January Bobby got a gift.
He received a transplant. But Bobby is still so very sick. His system is not adjusting
to all the drugs. All Bobby wants is to be well enough to follow his dream of
working with abused children.
Bobby needs our prayers.

Brianne: ..... A 8 years old girl with chronic pain. .................February 28th, 2000
It started when Brianne was 4 years old. She was having a lot of pain and was having a hard time even walking. At one point Brianne couldn't even walk. Tests were done on Brianne and her parents were told that Brianne had discitis, a disease that ate the tissues between the disc in the spine. She spent several months not walking and in bed then was put in a wheel chair. Finally she was able to walk, still in a body brace. The next 3 years she was just like any other children her age, running and playing.
At the beginning of this school year something happened to Brianne she was having trouble with her school work and often found crying. She was having a lot of pain but not saying anything until asked.
What ever this is, did fracture the bone in her spine. She still has a brace which keep the pains away.
Again she had to undergo lots of test and found she had antibodies in her blood that tell them something is wrong but still can't find why she was in so much pain. Brianne just had more test and still waiting for the results. The next step is the doctor will send her to a gene specialist, but first must wait for the result a
they don't want to put her through more if they doesn't have to. So now the wait is still going on.
We need all your prayers for this little girl to be healed and to stop attacking her.
Richard: ..... A 14 year old boy with Autoimmune Hepatitis..................February 26, 2000
..............At this point it is not life threatening and he does not yet need a liver transplant so we must pray that it doesn't come to that.....
Autoimmune Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver which is not infectious and is due to
the fact that the body, in some way recognizes the liver as being foreign and starts to attack it.
