This is Alex with her mother, Lori--I have corresponded with Lori many times. They live in Storm Lake, Iowa. Alex is 14 years old and has had paralysis (unknown cause) for four years. She has a breathing tube and is fed directly into the stomach.
Doctors have been unable to help her and various hospitals and organizations say, "she doesn't qualify".
Right now (February 21, 2009) especially she is not doing very well. The family is very weary. Please pray for a full recovery for Alex for that recovery to start NOW to the glory of God! Please pray now and every Friday at noon for 1 month.
If you pray for Alex, please send an e-mail to
alexsarmy@hotmail.com so they can be uplifted by each of you who are praying for her. In the subject line, please put "Prayed for Alex". You do not have to write anything in the body if you do not wish--just let them know you prayed for her.
Please forward this to all the real Christians you know and ask them to also pray for her. Let's keep reaching to touch the hem of Jesus' garment for Alex until she is healed.
Blessings,
Margaret Shontz
