I just received a link to another blog from a good friend of mine and I feel the need to share it with anyone and everyone who visits this site. The summer after my freshman year of college I worked at a camp in the Santa Cruz mountains. One of the couples (Dana and Dominic Orlando) I got to know and work with recently had their second child - Jim also worked very closely with Dominic during the summer he was at this camp. They also just discovered that their first child, Natalie, 2 years old, has leukemia. Her life story is one full of ups and downs, including having Down Syndrome, and now she is facing a very scary illness. I ask you to please pray for this family and for Natalie. Check out her blog and read as her story and life unfolds. I write this with tears flowing as I cannot imagine these trials, and yet I know this is a family that is faithful to God and trusts in His perfect plan. May you lift up this family and pray for God's healing to come quickly.

Thank you for sharing Natalie's story with me and the need to pray...I passed the update on to as many family and friends as I could think of...My heart ached for those dear parents who are facing such a serious illness in their precious Natalie's short life. I want you to know I am praying for a safe delivery and healthy baby for you & Jim.Love, Grammy
