Any update on April's health?

[Brucemusical]

Thanks for asking. No transplant yet.  Her health has been poor. Many complications and setbacks. She has a feeding tube now so is getting more nutrition, but is still very weak and frail. Please continue to pray for her and her family.

Our girl is gone to be with the Lord. She's not in pain anymore. She died about 12:30 a.m.. Thank you, Prayer Warriors, for your years of support to April's family. She appreciated you so much. Please continue to pray for the comfort that only God can give to us in these times of grief. Roger and the family want to thank you for all you have done all of these years. We will always love you for your faithfulness. God bless each of you is our prayer...Jimmie S. (for the family)

Hello April & Family,

Any news of a transplant for April as yet.Think about April often and if she has had any offers yet. I had a pancreas/kidney transplant 10th April 2008. Now at 3 month stage. All is well so far.

[Brucemusical]

Not yet. Great to hear of your succesful transplant. Praise God.

I am just in the very early stages of chronic pancreatites. I have been struggling with this for the last two years. I have lost about 10kilos of weight and it is painful and so depressing when my Church, family, friends and my extended family the destitute odd in my Children home say, Daddy you look so weak and pale, thin and weak. I am looking to the Lord for His promises to be fulfilled in my life too. I believe in Isaiah.58: 8 an many promises, yet my pain and weakness is overcoming my fait
