She knows she has to quit smoking and has had success and then gone back. A recent ultrasound showed that the vein on the right side of her neck (maybe artery?) is 70% narrowed. This will mean surgery; she is at high risk for stroke; she is really scared because this is what killed her mom.

She is throwing her cigarettes away on Saturday. Please sent prayers that she stays clean this time. She says it is all that she can do, and she thinks it is too late - but she is doing it.

Thanks.
How is your BFF now?

Asking for prayers for my husbands family. As some of you know, his young cousin was killed by her boyfriend last Friday morning. The funeral is this coming Sunday. Please pray for them to have some way to get through this tragedy.
