Praying For Abby



Dana sent me an email today regarding this little girl
I see sick little kids all the time. I have become in some ways numb to the sadness that surrounds a child's illness. However, Abby reminded me that it is not "normal" for kids to be sick. Especially with cancer. Abby has a very aggressive form of Leukemia. She also has a rare genetic disorder that magnifies the disease that is wracking her little baby body. Her chances of survival are not great... about 20-30%. However, her family has great hope that she will be healed. She is currently undergoing the most aggressive and difficult part of her treatment plan. I asked Dr. Vicki what this treatment was like, she responded, "awful. dangerous. hell." Please keep Abby in your prayers. I have never met Abby. Dana and her family are close personal friends with the Riggs clan. She speaks of them in the highest regard, calling them inspirational. Keep this sweet girl and her family in your prayers.
