Prayer Request

I'm asking prayers for nine-month-old Joey, he is undergoing testing for the best way to treat his hydrocephalus.
I know well the fear that is gripping his family right now as our youngest daughter Ellie was diagnosed with hydrocephalus (water on the brain) at the age of ten.
I know that Joey will most likely have to endure numerous brain surgeries, the initial surgery for shunt placement to drain the fluid, and then further surgeries to replace the shunt as he grows, and I know his family will have to keep a watchful eye on Joey for any sign of shunt malfunction.
Please keep Joey and his family in your prayers.

I know I've been away and my first post back is a request, but I also know your generous hearts will understand.
Love to you,
Eileen

  4. Eileen I've had you on my mind so much lately. I actually looked up at the stars last night while walking the dogs and said "Where are you Eileen?".
