Our OMS friend needs prayers....

Hi to all who come here to read and check on Connor. We love you and want to keep you posted on another little boy's struggle that is getting harder and harder for him. His name is Braeden and he is 3 years old and he has OMS like Connor and so many of Connor's online friends-but his neuroblastoma is stage III , high risk and not much is left to do, but send our prayers for peace for Braeden, and strenghth for his family. Here is the latest blog entry on Braeden's condition.

"Hello friends and family, I know you all have been anxious for an update and I am sorry for the delay, it's hard to write it this time. I am sorry to have to tell you all that Thursday's CT showed no real change in the tumor, and Braeden's blood pressure has gotten worse. It breaks my heart to say that at this point there is nothing more we can do than work to keep him comfortable and keep him feeling well and happy for whatever time we have left. He had the nerve block done yesterday, and will have the ablation done Monday (to kill the nerves permenantly). This will hopefully keep him pain free without the epidural. We are working to get back down to the 7th floor and hope that will be early next week. Yesterday the big kids were up and Braeden was happy, talking, and playing with them. It was great to see.

I want to share with you a verse that has been special to me these past months. Hebrews 10:23 says, "Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful." God never promised us this would be an easy journey, only that we would never walk a step of it alone. He as been with us all the way, and through you all we have seen Him daily. You have been his hands and feet and we are blessed by you. He also promised healing through His Son, either here on earth or in heaven with Him. Braeden will be whole, he WILL be healed, and he will be happy.

I will post more about visiting in the days to come. We appreciate your patience and understanding. Also, please continue your prayers. Pray for the hearts of all who love Braeden, that God would heal them, and pray for continued strength for us. God bless you all."

God Bless You Braeden...What a fighter you are and so brave too! So many people are praying for you because you are so special-not just to your wonderful family, but to all of us whose lives you have touched with your sweet smile and courage you have shown in all you have endured. We love You Braeden!
