Prayers Please!!!

I'm sending this post because I just heard some horrible news. My friend has been having a lot of problems with her health the past couple of years, and lost 4 family members in the past 10 months, oone of them a ten-month-old baby boy today. He died of heart failure. He had been on oxygen and more for months since he was born, and he was doing much better and off the oxygen and they thought he was going to be ok. He was lifelighted this morning and died. To make matters worse, his parents were only 17 and 18 years old! Why? Why does God let this happen? What are his reasons for taking such a young and helpless child? We most likely will never know, but God has a plan. He always does. Meanwhile, I'm keeping my friend and this entire family in my prayers. Will you all please do the same?

Also, my friend is going in for surgery (I can't think of the name right now but it's really, really risky), on November 15th. If you could pray for her then it would be greatly appreciated. She seems to think two more people are going to die this year, since apparently they die in sixes in her family. I told her she's being rediculous (in different, nicer words) and I'll be praying for her all-the-same, but she isn't at all convinced.
Prayers, or good thoughts if you don't pray, please? Thankyou

Hi, I hope Bilko is getting better! another suggestion for his allergies is a shampoo called Aloevine. It's sort of like putting aloe vera on your skin, only this is a shampoo that you bathe the dogs with. It works for my dog Troy, who has skin problems too. It's fairly expensive though.

I also hope your friend makes it through surgery. When I read your post I freaked out, but I'm also hoping that what she said won't happen. I couldn't blame her if she's so scared, but at the same time I do agree with you, people don't always die when you think they might... also I do sometimes read your blog. I've noticed that there's hardly any comments on here, so I thought I might do a comment because I have time and to give you some moral support, and so you know someone is reading.

P.S. I don't use blogger, but unfortunately it will only let me post this comment with my blogger account. My WordPress blog is here.

Hey Michelle! :) Thanks for the comment! You're right, I often feel like nobody actually reads this, so thankyou!
I think I have the shampoo you suggested, and it seems to help with dry skin (if it's the same thing) but not so much itching. I'll check (or have someone do it lol) and see if it's the same kind though. :)
I'll check out your blog too :)
