Prayer for Miller Family
 
A good friend of mine gives piano lessons to a little 8-year-old girl who about a year ago lost a sister to a very rare cancer (Turcot Syndrome).

Now, the 8-year-old is exhibiting similar symptoms, and since the disease is genetic, the family is literally in a FOG with worry.

I know there are a lot of prayer warriors on this site. Please help pray for Jana Miller, and her entire family.

See story below & link at bottom:

We have again had a very emotionally draining day. We sat and waited again for the outcomes of Joelle & Cameron's testing. From what they can tell, all of Lauren, Joelle, & Cameron's initial screenings are OK. They have all had biopsies and we should have results sometime by the middle of next week. We are feeling like we are in a fog....trying to brace ourselves for the possible results of Jana's polyps. We have talked with all of our children. There is mixed emotion for the children ...knowing that we have had good news and bad. It has just been very difficult to try to explain to an 8 year old what genetics is all about without producing a lot of fear. The staff at DuPont Hospital have once again been incredibly wonderful.... as well as the outpouring of love and prayer support that we have felt from so many of you. We know that we are in the hands of an Almighty God who has allowed this valley for a reason...it is not easy thinking of the future. We are trying to live one day at a time. Could we again ask that you pray for grace to accept whatever lies ahead, as well as strength to hear the Dr. on the other end of the phone give us the results of the biopsies....We deeply appreciate each of you! Marty & Lori, Lauren, Joelle, Cameron & Jana

You know, it's odd. When I first heard this story, my first thought was, "What is this cancer's name?" I felt like I desperately needed to know its name. I had to ask some questions to find out, because all's I was hearing was rare cancer. Wasn't good enough. I felt very strongly that I needed to know its name, so I could come up against it in THE NAME. The only name. The name above all names. JESUS is much more powerful than Turcot. AMEN??
