Please pray for my friend and her family

[Margies3]

My friend Maria lost her 15 month old granddaughter two days ago. She drowned in a pond.

Maria's daughter, Charli, is the mother of Sayde. She is a young girl still in high school who made a big mistake and got pregnant. But she did the right thing and did not abort the baby. She and Sayde were still living at home with Maria and Rick. But Charli and her boyfriend recently split up. He moved in with a 23 year old girl who had a 2 year old of her own. It was his day to have Sayde for visitation. He went to work and left Sayde at home with the new girlfriend. She apparently was distracted while watching the babies. Her story is that her two year old let Sayde out the door and that's how she ended up in the pond.

Charli is having a terrible, terrible time with this (of course!), as are Rick and Maria and the rest of the family.

In addition to this, Rick's sister (who he was very close to) just died less than a month ago of cancer.
And Rick has kidney failure and is on dialysis, waiting for a transplant.

So, see, this family has had way more than their share of heartaches lately. Please ask that the Comforter will surround them with His peace right now as only He can do.

Thanks so much!!!
