Please pray  for a friend of mine here at work - Renee.   She is in her
early 50's and and has been confirmed to have a 'soft tissue / connecting
tissue"  wasting disease.    It seems to be what her mother passed away
with at a very early age, and last year her younger sister also passed away
leaving 2 teenage children.   It seems to attack various internal organs,
with Renee it was/is her intestines,  her mother it was her lungs,  and her
sister who passed away last year,  the arteries in her heart just
deteriorated and ruptured.   They are doing some DNA testing at Duke, and
using autopsies from her mother and sister.

Please pray for healing in her life and in her daughters and that of her
niece and nephew and also for emotional healing as both families have had a
great deal of difficulty in marraiges and all too.

God Bless
