A little background:
about 8 years ago, friends of ours adopted a little girl who, at age 7 had spent her entire life in and out of the foster care system...bouncing back and forth between foster care, and an abusive, drug addicted household. Then she was adopted by Steve and Shelley. She captured the hearts of everyone who met her...she is vibrant, beautiful, and full of life.
For the past couple of months, she's been complaining of pain in her joints (especially legs and hips), and has been visiting DR.s to find the cause.
Monday it all came to a head, when she collapsed. She was admitted to the hospital and underwent a battery of tests, where it was diagnosed that she has AML Leukemia. She's a pretty sick little girl right now. I'm providing a link to her carepage for those who would be interested, but here is what her parents are asking for prayer for tonight:We have a few goals that you can be praying for:1.That they can remove the breathing tube soon.
2. That the Chemo & Radiation will continue to shrink the tumors and kill off the bad blood cells.
3. That she can be removed for the kidney dialysis machines.
4. That she will no longer be sedated and we can move her out of ICU and to the 9th floor.Please pray specifically for these things and in this order!So I'm asking for more prayer covering for Shonta from all of my friends here. There's so much more info on the care page, and more of an idea of what a Spunky, Beautiful Girl she is!http://www.carepages.com/carepages/ShontaFrody
