06/18/2014 UPDATE:
Lulu made an awful turn for the worse early this morning
She is on full life support
Pupils are fully dilated
CTScan now
Her life truly is in God's hands tonight
Tonight
I'm asking for prayer
A young girl that I have grown to love
Is fighting for her life
Her name is Lulu Martinez
She has been facing and fighting her second bout with Leukemia
Leukemia is close to my heart as my father passed from
leukemia after battling for 6 years.
Lulu fought this disease when she was younger and won
However recently it reared it's ugly head
She began to fight again and was doing well until this past week
She has strep and her lungs are completely full of fluid
She has high fevers
Her body has not responded to antibiotics
She is on a ventilator
Today her doctors sat down with her family and recommended ECMO
To try and give her body a rest and save her life
They have called her family in and are believing God to do a miracle
Can you pray with me and believe as well
Here is her CaringBridge site if you would like to follow her story.
Thank you in advance
Oh, Cindy, my heart is breaking for this girl and her family. My MIL passed from leukemia, too, and it really takes its toll. How awful that this young girl is fighting tis for a second time. I will add my prayers to yours. xo Diana

I am so sorry to read about your young friend. I said a prayer just know! Chrsitine
ReplyDeleteCindy, what a shame. My little great nephew had leukemia when he was 1 year old. He is now 10 and is doing very well but it is always such a worry that it might come back. I certainly will join you in prayers for her and her family..Judy
ReplyDeleteHi Cindy, What a faithful prayer warrior you are; I'm lifting sweet Lulu up right now. We just sold our home to a couple whose 5 yr old has it too-he must be very ill because Make a Wish foundation is building him a fort.
