Can you believe?


Last night I found out that the baby we've been praying for, A.N. has been diagnosed with a rare vascular disease called Kasabach Merritt phenomenon which stems from the type of tumor she has which is called Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma. She started chemotherapy yesterday in order to shrink the tumor. She will receive treatments for probably two years.
     My first reaction, of course, was, why? Why Lord? But then I quickly remembered He is He and I am just me and can't possibly know what plans He has for this little girl. Maybe, since this is such a rare disease, He will use her medical team to make medical advances for this disease. Maybe He'll use the baby's family to advocate for the disease and bring public awareness to it. We don't know. It's not our job or our purpose to know.
     From what I read, this is a benign tumor so I imagine the chemo is used to shrink the mass so it can be removed. We need to pray for her and her parents and grandparents to get them through this process.
     Her family wrote: "We are very overwhelmed and not sure what to think but we are trusting God's plan and know He will provide for us."
So, please keep praying. Pray without ceasing.
