First, please pray for Dana Hanley and family at roscommonacres.com as they lost their son “Tiggy” to a tragic accident Mattias Ryker Hanley February 23, 2009 – December 12, 2010 My second prayer request is for Elizabeth of TrenchesofMommyhood. Her 5 year old son Jacob was recently diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. Jacob will be in the hospital for Christmas, following a surgery. So, as you gather around the table or tree with your family this holiday, please keep these two hurting families in your prayers…..
Oh my goodness. I sit here crying my eyes out. My heart is breaking for the Hanely family. Right now I can't even read the other story - I gotta go hug my kids. Prayers going up.
That is so sad. I am crying and wishing there was more I can do for the Hanely family. I have a daughter the same age as Tiggy and I can't imagine the pain of losing her. Prayers are being sent for both famillies.
Yes-I forgot to put in my post-you will cry....I have been crying for days as I read their blogs each day and thought of my own children.....
Oh my stars, I just sit here and cry. Its so sad. I feel the pain with the Hanley family I lost my little brother at that age its so sad. My heart goes out to the other family too. So sad... and heart breaking.
I am praying for those families! I saw Tiggy's story and I bawled like a baby, my own little "Twiggles" is just 17 months old and is himself a climber and I can't imagine the pain of loosing him or any of my children. I also have a 6 and 7 year old and couldn't imagine getting news like the family of Jacob has gotten. I have been frustrated with my children this week, and I am SOOOOO thankful that they are here for me to be frustrated with. I will keep these families in my prayers. Lord, Please bring peace and comfort to the family of Tiggy, let them know that you are there to carry them during this time of pain and need. Bring strength and healing to little Jacob, and comfort to his family, hold them in your love and give them peace and strength to get through this difficult time. Amen.
My prayers are with both families, but yet I still feel helpless. I feel as if I want to help both families in some way, but don't now how to other than to pray for them. My heart goes out to them. I can only imagine the immense pain the families are in now. May God give them strength and peace.
Yes, I knew about the poor Tiggy. It is heartbreaking. I did not know about Jacob...so sad. So much heartbreak. I pray for the Lord's guidance and comfort in these family's lives.
We will be praying for these families as well. I cannot imagine going through this and also wish there was more we could do to help them.
I haven't said anything up to this point, because I don't know what to say, but at the same time I can't stop thinking about these two families. They have been and will be in my prayers.
Please keep sending up prayers-Jacob and Beth got some more bad news yesterday-it's not the 'favorable' type of cancer they thought it was, it's harder to treat and will need aggressive treatment. I'm just sitting here crying for them....
Oh no! That is just heartbreaking. Thanks for keeping us updated. I commented on her blog that I was praying for her. I know that may not mean much during this time and she may not have the time to read it...but I wanted to give her a nugget of encouragement.
