Please pray for Michael and his parents Joe and Linda. Michael has received the last rites and is in hospital with necrotising fasciitis. (Flesh eating disease) He has already lost a large section of his side and much of his arm. Many thanks.
Yes, Michael is a highly respected research scientist in oncology. His brother who is a doctor, diagnosed him.
Michael, a brilliant young scientist, has spent his whole life trying to discover a cure for breast cancer.
Michael is still in ICU and still on dialysis and although stable is still critical. Further excision and perhaps even amputation may be needed. Thank you all for your prayers.
Dear Jesus, Savior, We pray for Michael as he struggles against an unseen enemy that would destroy his flesh. If he still has Your work left to do on this earth, we pray that he is restored to health so that he can continue. If it is Your will that he should live, then please, let him live, but not only live, to live with great joy. If it is not, we accept Your choice, for only you can see all. Humbly Yours, Amen.
Michael has just opened his eyes for the first time. He is still critical but it now looks like he may not lose the arm. Thanks for all the prayers. Please keep going. Pinecone found him on https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-joseph-porter-45b04b33 As she says its good to have a face for the prayer.
