Sister

I would like for anyone who is reading my blog to pray for my baby sister. It is funny sometimes to think of her as my baby sister because she is 6' tall and she more or less tells me what to do. We are only one year apart in age, actually 1 year and 9 days to be exact. She has been having problems with her back for quite a while now. She hasn't really wanted anyone to know but it is looking like there could really be something wrong with her. I depend on her to buy my groceries and to take me places and I have been trying to back off alot on going anywhere because she is always in so much pain afterwards but then she just fusses at me if I don't go and says you need to get out of the house. She doesn't know that for the last two months I have felt like leaving the house just not wanting her to have to pick up my wheelchair and put it in her truck. She has had two MRIs in the last week and tommorrow she will be going to a specialist. We really don't know what is wrong with her other than a disc is really overfilled with fluid and bone marrow is leaking out around it. Everything I have found on the web has led to arthritis or cancer and I am really scared. I spent my childhood taking care of her and she has spent the last two years taking care of me. She will always be my doll, I thought my parents were bringing her home for me to play with and I called her doll when she was born and that sort of stuck. I wish everyone would please pray for her. She has been through so much with an abusive marriage that she is finally getting out of and I hope that God spares her more pain. She has a six year old daughter who is me made over. I sometimes joke with her that God felt she hadn't learned what she needed to from me so He gave her another me to teach her more. So please pray for her and my family. I know God will see us through all of this I just hope it is really nothing.

I will be praying for her. She is such a blessing to me. My soul always rejoices when she sings. I've never heard her sing that my spirit didn't feel uplifted. God can move for her like he did for me. They thought I might even have a brain tumor, but God loves miracles. We will pray that no matter what it is that God will heal her!

I am praying. It is an honor. I saw where Krista told about her miracle. I also had a miracle in my life several years ago. They do still happen.
