Prayer requests

Please continue to be in prayer for the Smith family. Andrew has been showing signs of tumor progression. His latest scans also show signs of tumor progression. The doctor at NIH is recommending treatment with a medicine not normally used for DIPG.

Also this afternoon we received the following email from Barry Secrest.

Dear Praying friends,

Just about five minutes ago I came from Julia, Cacho
and Jonathan´s house. Jonathan had thrown the phone on the table when I
walked in the door. He is disgusted with a problem that just took place
with his mother. Julia just fell into a coma and Cacho is going to have to
stay in the hospital tonight. They have had to put her back on all of the
machines today. Cacho told me on the phone that the doctor´s report
was, ´Julia was very bad off before, but now she is worse´. This is
all happening in just a question of a few hours this afternoon. Please be
in prayer in favor of Julia´s natural life at this time as she fights for her
life in the hospital. Please form any kind of prayer chains that you might
have in your churches over this matter. Pray for calm for the family as
well. Pray for Barb and I as this is a difficult and stressful time for
us.

In Christ,Barry Secrest, Uruguay South America. for Barb, Thomas, David and
Anthony
