These are for students at the middle school I work at. One of them her father killed himself last week. her parents are divorced and she was set to move in with him next month.

2nd is a little girl who has cystic fibrosis or something of the sort. she is in a drug induced coma for her pain. the has lived longer than any doctor expected. they woke her once from the coma but the pain was to intense so they put her back under. it is just her and her mom. please pray for her and pray for her mother to have strength. I can't imagine what she is going through right now.

thank you.
 
Ugh...there are times when I wonder how God could make people go through such horrible things. I know he has all of us in His hands, but, geesh...

I will keep them in prayer.
