As most of you know, I am a great believer in the power of prayer and at the moment I find our family in need of all we can get. My granddaughter is pregnant with her third child and they have found a problem. The umbilical cord has insufficient number of arteries and veins and there is a mass where the cord attaches to the belly, it may be intestines outside the body. It can be lifethreatening to the baby. They are sending her to a specialist, but please, help us and pray for this baby's healing and strength for the family. Also, my husband went for a catheterization of the vessels in his leg yesterday and nearly died. He lost two pints of blood in a matter of seconds but the nurse that was with him applied pressure and essentially saved his life. However, there is a complete blockage of the femoral artery and without further surgery he will lose his leg. They are giving him blood transfusions and preparing him for further surgery to try to open up this artery today, tomorrow or the next day, depending on all the tests. etc. He needs your prayers. He is in Galachia Heart Hospital, Wichita, Kansas, room 216. Thank you, my friends and family, Sally
