My War With Cancer

On April 12, 2007 (at age 18), Nicholas Raitt was diagnosed with stage 4 alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma - a very rare childhood cancer, located in his right sinus area. On April 15, 2008, he was confirmed to have no evidence of disease (NED). The cancer returned in his pancreas and he began his battle once again on April 15, 2009. On December 3rd, 2009, scans confirmed again NED but relapsed on August 18, 2010 in his abdominal cavity. On June 2, 2011, Nick earned his angel wings.

Please say a prayer for...

To those of you who have prayed for Nick, would you be willing to continue your prayers for our extended "rhabdo" family? The past few weeks have been particularly devestating for three families: Kiersten, age 23, Joshua, age 21 and Jordan, age 26 have all passed on to be with our Heavenly Father. The families are incredibly strong in their faith, yet their hearts are broken. I have witnessed the power of prayer from all of you and it would be a personal blessing to me if you would include these families in your prayers for peace and comfort.

Thank you,

Lori
