Dear Friends,
Here is a recent photo of Ben and Nellie.They have been friends since they were babies and had the same kind of seizures - infantile spasms. Can you tell how much the adore each other? Ben has Koolen and FG syndromes, and is still quite disabled. God granted him a miracle and took his seizures away. Nellie, who has Multiple Sclerosis, still has severe seizures every day. She used to say "Mama" but can't any longer. She has the most loving heart and the sweetest smile you will ever know. Ben has just started noticing Nellie's seizures and is very worried about her. We have been praying for God to "put Nellie's seizures in the trash," just as we pray for Ben's fears to be put in the trash. Nellie will be 26 on April 24. Will you please join us in praying for Nellie? She needs a miracle too. If we could spread this around the world, share it with all your prayer warriors, it would be wonderful. " Please, dear God, put Nellie's seizures in the trash. Let her say "Mama" again" Amen
Thank you for helping us spread this special prayer request! Ben and Jan Wharton in Grand Lake, Colorado
Just got home from a short trip, and saw this picture of Ben and Nellie! It is so touching and full of feeling. Their sharing and caring is so obvious, and I truly believe they can see each other's heart through the window of the "eyes"! Perhaps, it is difficult to express their feelings with words, yet the strong bond is definitely there!
Sending up prayers for Nellie's seizures to stop. Hugs to you and Ben!
