Living with Trisomy 13 Prayer Requests

Prayer Requests July 2010

2010-07-01T20:51:00.000-07:00

Dear Friends,

I am writing because a woman, whom I was asked to pray for, just lost her husband in a routine traffic stop. Her name is Sarah, and her husband's name is Jeffrey Kocab. He was a police officer working for the Tampa police department, who was shot by a man stopped for not having a license plate. Sarah has been trying to conceive for quite some time, and was finally pregnant. She is due in one week. It is suspected that the child she is carrying has Trisomy 13 (the same chromosomal anomaly as Samuel). Please lift up Sarah today. I cannot imagine how hard it must be for her to feel the weight of losing her husband, but I do know the heartache of losing a child. May our Merciful God reveal His face to Sarah, and pull her from the depths of despair into the mystery of His overcoming peace.

Thank you so much for your prayers! I truly believe that God can transform even the worst tragedy into something that reveals His love and beauty.

In Christ, Amoreena Berkley

Posting for Kimberle, mom to Niles,

For me and my husband to start experienced joy again in the things we used to find fun. And, for me with my depression and feelings of sorrow after losing Niles. I'd also like to ask God for another child, a healthy child that we can take home from the hospital and have with us for the rest of our lives.

Thanks again,

Kimberle Cooper

Prayers for Joey and Grace

adjusting medicines for increased seizure activity.

Please lift up Natalia in prayer as we have been adjusting her seizure medicine. She is still having some break through seizures.

The good news is she is walking all over the place, much like having a new toddler walking. I have to keep my eyes on her, she gets up and moves in stealth mode.. I think I'll add some bells to her ankles so I can hear her as she wonders off. :)
