Now, I have never "met" Nikki or her family, but we have known each other online for a long time now.
I ask today that you pray with me, for the family to find some faith and comfort.
I have been making cards, I almost do not want to share, because I sat in tears making them and they feel so personal and private to me.
I enclosed scriptures in each card with very little message except the message of faith.
I would encourage you, if you do "know" the family or have followed their story to please send a card of faith to the family.
I know we cannot do anything to help from so far but we can pray and send a sense of community from near and far. So please, whatever your belief send thoughts and prayers their way.
This is Nikki's request of prayer
Many of you ask continually "what can we do for you?" My answer is to pray - just keep praising God for all He has given us and thanking Him for Ellie and her goodness. Pray for the healing of her body, a complete and total restoration, so that she will go on to glorify God with the story of her healing. Pray for Pat as he struggles to hold his family together. Pray for me that I find the right words at the right times when my children ask me difficult questions. Pray for our parents, brothers and sisters as they stand close by to us and strengthen us, even though they are struggling themselves. WE love all of you and so need you, thank you so very much for fighting with us.

On a sweeter love note, I wanted to thank LisaMarie for coming to my blog.
She won the stamps and privately messaged me to please send them to Jingle.
I just thought that was so sweet and that is what true love and friendship is all about!
Thanks for sharing your kindness Lisa!
I don't I can explain what that did to my spirit today!
