| I had a beautiful weekend birthday getting my five sisters together and in the midist of celebration we find that my neice's oldest boy(16) is failing in the battle with muscular distrophy,this is a form of md that is passed from mother to son and we have never figured how this happened to the oldest two of her three boys,
the survival rate is not very long and it looks like the oldest is started on the down side, we are grateful for the extended years that my neice's boys have been given and it looks like the oldest has started on the down side and to think what this is doing to the next boy is more than can only can be imagined, I've always prayed for the courage that this mother has shown, and now I pray that the Lord will up hold her through what looks to be even more trying times ; and wish that I knew what more could be done for them. for what we dont comprehend we must pray to the Lord for .

| Oh my Gosh, Mary....how dreadful. I dont think I could watch my child dying and know that the next one was due for the same fate. May Mother and Father lift them up and comfort them through this.
