Prayer Request: My Nephew

I was just nudging him a couple weeks ago to eat better. Just heard last night he was back in the hospital for the second time this summer, dialysis after a bad reaction to some medication that hit his kidneys. for a . Hubby took the day off and we were going down there at noon to see him.

Now, I just got a call from my brother and sister--he's been judged brain dead.

What?<---this is still not sinking in.

I lost it. I'm about to lose it again.

But my sister asked for prayer. I calmed down enough to type this before heading to the hospital to FB and do this and ask my friends from church and my online acquaintances.

If you're a praying person, please pray...quite frankly, for a miracle. We call him "Kiko".

I keep seeing the little boy I grew up with and the man who has a 12 year old daughter. And I can't accept this. My brain went on strike.

Things change so fast. Hug and kiss your loved ones TODAY, RIGHT NOW.

And please pray. Sorry...can't type more.

    I am so sorry for this whole situation. It's so sad when someone we love gets hurt and it's even worse when it's an innocent child.

    I am sending you and your family positive thoughts and well wishes.
