Prayers for Presley

Before or after you scroll down and read my newest post,I would like to ask all of you who have found yourselves stopping by today, to do me a favor. I would like you to take a few minutes and click over and meet a beautiful family and their precious baby Presley. Presley is a friend of Zoey's who has been in the hospital since her birth almost 6 months ago.Presley's journey has been long and difficult and will culminate in her open heart surgery on Monday. Her momma Kele and daddy Mike and siblings Mikah and Jett could use all the support and prayers they can possibly get.They are at a very stressful juncture right now and even the support of strangers will help rally them and give them strength to face all that is before them. Their nickname for Presley is little butterfly and she is just so beautiful. Presley is just waiting to bust out of that cocoon of hers,spread her wings and show them how very ready she is to fly home to the loving arms of her family. They want nothing more then to shower her with hugs and kisses, tube and machine free and get to the business of just doing regular baby stuff. Not too much to ask really. So please join me and let the Giles family know we are here to support them with our prayers because they have become so weary and so frightened and sometimes in these moments,especially these moments ,even praying doesn't come as easy as it should. It's the least we can do.

Thanks for sharing and giving hints about those who need us. To support, giving hope and sometimes just to be there. That special band that surrounds us means sometimes more than all the support of friends and family, well that`s in in my case. I sometimes thought about others who said the usual stuff to help us "so what do you know. You are definitaly not close enough." Unfair, I know, but it just happened.

We have Maximilian and his parents, who need our prayers and support these days, Maximilian needed surgery and is in hospital fighting for his life this moment. He lives in Mexico with his parents, the blog is in german, but I guess there is a translation possibility. You can leave a message on www.cabronsito.blogspot.com
if you want to let them know that there are a lot of people including them in their prayers at the moment.

I also wanted to let you know that I love the pic of Zoey in the header. Actually I guess I felt in love with her due to this photo!
