I recieved this mail by email and was just moved bt it and how his parents must be feeling. Daniel has pneumonia at the moment and I am worrying about it going further!!!
ALL THIS MAIL IS ASKING YOU YOU TO DO IS TO PRAY FOR THIS BOY'S LIFE.
Jordan (two years old) has been at Red Cross Hospital in Cape Town for the past 5 weeks struggling with cancer. The latest news from the hospital is that in the last 12 hours his body has weakened to the point that the side effect of the drug that they were considering using may do more harm than good.
At the moment everything is on hold and they are just holding there breath and praying. They saw what seemed like a glimmer of hope in the form of a miracle drug and now those hopes have been das hed but as the doctor says, this is how it goes and we cannot give up hope.
Please continue to pray for him and thank you to all of you who have been so willing to help, help which they still need depending on what happens in the next few hours and days. So for now as frustrating as it may be there is nothing else to be done but wait for all the medicine he is receiving to start working and pray for a miracle, a gift only God can give to him.
Jordan at the moment has 22 tubes going into his body, a machine draining fluid from his lungs, a ventilator to breathe for him , another machine to do the job of his kidneys as they are unable to get rid of the toxins. A tube to feed him, and a whole lot more to administer morphine for the pain, valium to keep him sedated and a whole lot of other antibiotics to fight infection and repair the holes in his lungs caused by the pneumonia. In the last few hours his condition changed a number of times, one minute giving some hope then the next looking hopeless. As you can imagine this is more than any parent can bear and I urge you to keep Craig and Karen in your prayers for strength, the doctors for wisdom and God for healing and mercy.
