Subject: Fwd: William Reynolds: Urgent Prayer Request

Dear Nigel,

This little boy is known to me from nursery and the family to us from Cubs.

Would you please pray for the family and ask others to remember them too as  you think fit?

Thanks a lot,

Alison

Subject: Fwd: William Reynolds: Urgent Prayer Request

Dear All, Apologies for the mass e-mail but you are all people who either know the Reynolds family or who I thought would like to support them in prayer at this time (and whose e-mails I happen to have) Steve, Emma, William and Edward Reynolds are members of our church family. William Reynolds is 6 years old. He had Leukaemia in the summer and was told that he was in remission 2 weeks before Christmas. Yesterday the family found out that the Leukaemia has come back twice as bad as before and were pinning their hopes on a bone marrow transplant. Today the doctors have sat down with Steve and Emma and told them to prepare for the worst. William is currently having a 5 day course of chemo and unless his white cell count (which indicates the Leukaemia) is down to 0 (it is currently 340 and was 400 yesterday) by the end of treatment on Thursday then a bone marrow transplant is not an option as it would not work and he would not survive it. Steve and Emma would like as many people as possible to pray that William's white blood cell count is 0 by the end of treatment on Thursday For wisdom as they think about what to tell William. The doctors have told them that they should prepare him for the worst but how do you tell a child who was sitting in bed playing the X Box today that he might very likely die? For strength Emma has requested that people do not just turn up to visit in the next few days and to check with her first. They have quite a few people 'booked in' but also need some space. If in doubt you could also contact myself of Dee Russell It seems like a very bleak and dark situation but we do have a God who lights up the darkness Please pray and I will keep you posted Thank you love Sammy x ps - Steve and Emma want as many people to pray as possible so please pass this on to people as you feel appropriate
