I asked for prayers 'round this time last year...I'm asking for them again...

this time for a different reason.

A friend of mine's baby boy was diagnosed with a rare blood disease in October and today, May 12th, he will be receiving a life-saving bone marrow transplant from his big brother.

So if you all could, take a moment, think a happy thought or say a little prayer for Liam and his family and the doctors and nurses who are performing the transplant, please do...all I ask is for a second or two.

Everyone here was so awesome when I asked for prayers for my Grandpa last year...who wouldn't want to think happy thoughts for a baby who hasn't even begun to experience the world??

Here's the website/blog the family has started with Liam's story: http://liamsjourney.com/

An Update on Liam

He has an infection called Mucositis, but from what I understand, it's part of the healing process, so it's a GOOD thing.

His big brother is recovering well, also.

Continued thoughts and prayers are appreciated.

FANTASTIC NEWS! I just saw that Liam gets to leave the hospital today!! He will be with his family at the Ronald McDonald House and continue treatment, but the good news is that he gets to leave the hospital!
