Yet another prayer request for your blog, please? Kreed the nonverbal autistic teenager we\u2019ve been praying and fundraising for for so long is having some kind of severe medical emergency\u2013despite the fact that he\u2019s usually a very well behaved and loving child, his behavior is suddenly raging completely out of control and since he\u2019s seventeen now his parents are finding that they\u2019re not strong enough to keep him from harming himself or others. Thankfully he\u2019s moved to a new city where doctors are willing to take his symptoms seriously instead of always blaming autism. The new doctor has ordered an MRI as she suspects a \u201cPotts Puffy Tumor\u201d in his head. I\u2019ll keep you and the readers posted as we find out what\u2019s wrong. If the doctor\u2019s suspicion is correct he will have to have immediate surgery to keep the tumor from spreading to his brain and killing him. Obviously his parents are terrified, this has been a horrible long road and their beloved son could die at any time from his health problems.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Father, hear our prayer for Kreed\u2019s complete healing in body, soul, and spirit. Give his caregivers grace, compassion, wisdom, counsel, knowledge, creativity, insight, skill, and the proper technology to assist in that healing and give him and all who love him grace, peace, consolation, strength, faith, hope, and love. \u00a0Mother Mary, St. Luke, and St. Peregrine, pray for him. \u00a0We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
