Pray for Ava

While we typically use this blog to share fun, light-hearted updates on Anna, we have a very serious request for all of the friends and family of Anna that visit this site.

One of Anna's friends, Ava, was recently diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor, and is undergoing treatment at Texas Children's. She has bravely endured two brain surgeries to date, and is facing extensive chemotherapy and radiation over the next months/years in order to beat this cancer.

Ava is the daughter of friends of ours, Amy and Jeremy, and is also one of Anna's classmates at "school".

While Ava is in the hands of some of the most gifted medical professionals in the world, the real key to her overcoming this challenge is PRAYER. Please please pray for sweet little Ava, and please pass her story on to your friends, family, prayer groups, etc.

Here is Ava's story:

Also, please sign the guestbook on her site if you have a chance. While Amy and Jeremy may not know all of you, they are so strongly supported by seeing the number of people praying for and caring about their little angel, Ava.
