If you have a chance in the next couple of days, please say a prayer of healing for Ian, a 17-month-old little boy at our church whose parents found out a month ago that he had a brain tumor. It was removed about 4 weeks ago, but has since grown back and was found to be a rare and and agressive form of cancer. He and his parents Jason and Anna are at St. Jude now for treatment, and Ian is scheduled to have a second surgery tomorrow to have the tumor removed again, and then will begin chemo treatments. Here is what his parents have asked specifically for prayer:
"Continued peace as we all face another dangerous brain surgery; that Ian will remain stable until his surgery on Wednesday so Dr. Boop can do the surgery; a miracle that will take away this tumor and cancer cells once and for all; a strong, healthy body for Ian that will be able to handle the surgery, recovery, and chemo."
We had a special time of prayer for Ian a couple of weeks ago at churhc, and he was running around playing and blowing kisses at everyone in the room. He is an angel, and it breaks my heart to think of him going through this. Sadly reminds me of a year ago when I was praying for little Joseph, who has since gone to be with Jesus. If you would like to read more about him and follow his progress, here is a link to his Caring Bridge page.
