URGENT PRAYER NEEDED

Dear Friends,

Above is a photo of my cousin Isaiah (Ike) 16 (next week)

Has Hydrocephalus, Epilepsy,  Chiari Malformation and is in the hospital at St. Paul Children's Hospital in the Twin Cities. His shunt valve is not working and they are tentatively planning surgery to repair it.

This is one of the strongest kids I know. He is half of a set of twins and amazes me, His brother Ethan, is a normal 16 year old, but has a gentle heart, and even though he is healthy always looks out for his brother. Ike, Goes through life with a joy and positive attitude, always willing to hug and love everyone. He has a gentle kind heart, to everyone. He gives his all, if he plays ball on the Miracle League to school, it is hard to squash his spirit. Such a great kids from a great family. Angie and Bryan also have another son Caleb, and this family works and plays hard. They love spending time outdoors and being together as a family. Angie and Bryan are devoted to their kids in such a strong way, making life for Ike as normal as possible. Never putting their needs ahead of his, giving him balance and stability. They are an amazing family. PLEASE PRAY for them, Ike's impending surgery, Strength and peace, Provision, hospital food and just being there and driving the 1 1/2 hours to get there costs money and as with all of us that is tight, especially this time of year, Patience and rest. Christmas is hard for many (me) but Angie LOVES it and celebrates it to the hilt. Shopping not being on her priorities list, please pray how God can use you to bless them (contact me if you don't know them) this holiday season. Life with special needs kids is never ever easy, so please remember this family as you pray today. Here is an opportunity to be Jesus with skin on and bless someone, or a family of someones.

We LOVE YOU BECKER FAMILY.

Merry Christmas

Be blessed

Always
