HI everyone,

Here is the prayer list that I will be adding to the prayer group. I will be
taking this list to church with me and praying while I am there.

LuAnn and family, Jeff has left for Iraq, he will be there 4 months please pray
that he is safe while there and returns home safely.

All families that Cancer has affected their lives, pray that God gives them the
strength to overcome anything that has been put in their path, say special
prayers to those who have been out of treatment, but not yet cured, they need to
feel your peace.

Please pray for Noah, he is in ICU, probably with a line infection, please pray
for him that he does not have to have it removed, unless it is absolutely
necessary. Please pray also that the new treatment that that they are trying
(ICE) works on his tumor.

Please pray for Ben Bowen and family they are asking the Lord for these things.

That this tumor will go away.
* That we are sensitive to give pain meds when needed. It is difficult to know
when he is hurting because Ben doesn't demonstrate typical symptoms.

* That Ben get some much needed rest during the day. His pain meds seem to
cause him to be restless. This is a real struggle for Ben right now. He can't
settle down for more than a few minutes - constantly wanting up and down. He has
fallen several times from pure exhaustion. We are trying new meds to see if we
can get more desirable results.

* That he not experience seizures.

* That he be protected from difficult and painful side affects of tumor growth.

* For Eli - to know that he is loved equally. That we know how to explain the
things he has to see every day.

* For mommy and daddy.

* For our friends who share this journey - and the thousands who will if we
don't find a cure.

* For Ben's medical team - St. Jude (Dr. Weiss, Dr. Gajjar, Elizabeth and
Tara), Dr. Gibbs (our local attending doctor), the Hospice team (Dr. Conjura, Jo
and Crystal). They are dealing with challenging circumstances that (at times)
there is no real good answer. Pray for wisdom and guidance.

* THANK God for everything He has done with Ben's story. It is a powerful
demonstration that He is answering our prayers.

Please Pray for my family Michael that he has the strength to continue keep
his family lifted. Please pray for Mekala, Jessica, Lil Mike, and big mac.
pray that they continue to grow with their own personal relationship with Jesus,
and the Heavenly Father. Please pray for me. Pray that I continue to be able
to lift my children up, and be the patient mother you want me to be. Help me to
develop my ways to be more patient and less frustrated.

Please Pray for the Emily Cook Foundation please pray that we are able to reach,
teach, and network with the people who will make our goal of finding a cure for
Rhabdoid Cancer.
