Dear brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus:

As I prepare to write this prayer request, my heart is just absolutely torn apart and devastated at this point. This is an urgent prayer request. My aunt Amy is only 43 years old, she has cirrhosis of the liver, and it's so bad that it has also effected her pancurious is also effected and neither one is totally or properly functioning. In fact, it's so bad that her ammonia levels are up to 97% which means her liver and pancurious are only working at 3%. This has also caused a UTI, and she has no memory of anything or anyone, except her father, who's my grandfather, and the man that she has been with for years. Other than that she knows no one, not even her sisters, or herself. She was asked her name and couldn't tell us, she was shown a picture of herself and asked who it was, she had no idea. Her skin's already yellow, she's in tons of pain, and it's also causing her sugar to bottom out at 75, then spike back up to almost 500. Each of these are deadly threats to the human body, so obviously the hand, protection, mercy, and grace of God is upon her, and keeping her alive. At least for now, it's so heartbreaking to see her this way, please,please,PLEASE pray for her and our family. My grandparents have already lost two children, their only son who was 32, and one of the twin daughters who was 39. They just can't bear the loss of a third child, and we're remaining positive and optimistic, praying as hard as we can for her. I'm claiming victory for her, I've seen God works such miracles in her life already. This is just an extremely difficult time for our family, we're seeking Yahweh, and fully trusting Him with her. She's in His hands, and there's no better place to be. Please, lets stand in agreement of prayer for a FULL recovery, and for FULL restoration!

I've seen God defy the odds SO many times already with my aunt Amy, and there's no doubt whatsoever that He CAN do it again. There's no limits, for He is El Shaddai, He is in control, and He has her in the palms of His hands, where nothing and no one can remove her! By all human definitions at this point with everything that's going on, and as critical as things are, she shouldn't be alive, BUT because of Yahweh, she's alive! We (the family and friends who personally know her) shall not fear, we shall not tremble, we shall not be moved, we shall conquer fear with faith and LOVE, for God is love! I'm claiming these powerful truths over Amy right now in JESUS name! Thank you LORD!

Update: Today, Amy couldn't give a name, but she did recognize one of her sisters. Whereas yesterday she had no idea who she was, in fact she cried, and was absolutely terrified of her. This is a small step, but it's a step forward, and we'll take it! The LORD is already working in Amy's life and situation, may we all rejoice on her behalf in Jesus name. This is a great sign, the ammonia levels had decreased some. At one point yesterday, they were over 100. Our God is absolutely amazing!

Thank you everyone for the amazing out-pour of love, support, and prayers. Amy had a bad night last night, she pretty much didn't sleep at all from what aunt Sandy said. There's an additional prayer request I have as of today. My grandmother, my daddy's mama, was admitted to a different hospital today, they found blood in her colon. This isn't good at all, it's usually a sign of cancer, or something very serious. It's such a difficult time right now in life and I don't mean to complain, but guys, I really need the prayers. This going on, I've been out of work going on two months, and the company I worked for is appealing my unemployment benefits, my dad was in a bad accident in May, just 5 days after I lost my job, but thankfully he's doing excellent now. It's just like Satan is hitting me left and right with his attack, this tells me I'm doing something right for God! Yahweh is so faithful, He has given me peace and assurance that ALL things will work out for the good, and He will take care of it all, and provide every need. I need to win this case which is coming up on the 12th of the month, I was the only one out of 5 people in the house working, and now I don't have that income. Unemployment is very little, but I'm also getting food stamps until I get another job. It's amazing how God works and blesses us through trials, the best part is this: God's in the midst of it all, it passes through His hands first,and my heart shall rejoice because of these truths. I love you still Lord,thank you for being in control and carrying me and this load.

Update: Amy's ammonia levels have doubled. This is VERY dangerous, and very bad news. It seems her body is just weakening, and she has given up on life itself. She has had so many serious health issues over the years, and she attempted suicide before. She over dosed once, and luckily someone had gone to wake her up for something, but they couldn't wake her up, so they rushed her to the ER and they pumped her stomach and everything. She was in ICU for a while, then put in a mental health institution for evaluation and such. We're remaining hopeful, but also accepting the fact there's a big chance she may not make it. This is heart-wrenching to have to think about, but I know that she's a winner either way. She has Jesus all the same, she has healing here below, or life forever if she goes. It's sad, it's hard, it's trying, but our God is mighty and in control, He has a plan, and will work it all out for His honor and glory one way or another. Please everyone, lets just continue to flood the gates of heaven with prayer that God's will be done, and our hearts be prepared for and humbly accepting of whatever may happen.
