 Sierra
Wiseman
Fundraiser -- UPDATE
Sunday June 22nd was her baptism here at
King of Kings.
Sierra's birthday was on March 17th --
she was 4.
According to the latest information that
we have, the chemotherapy seems to be stabilizing her cancer.
She will shortly be back in the hospital
for the bone marrow transplant and then home in isolation for 6 more weeks after
that.
She just completed more
chemotherapy and radiation -- so keep her in your prayers.
No new tumors have
been found. It will be a couple of weeks before we know if they have shrunk --
so please keep up your prayers.
Sierra is 4 years old. She
was diagnosed with cancer in early January 2008 and we raised money to buy the
family a reliable car to get her to Children's Hospital for her chemotherapy and
doctor's appointments. Any funds above and beyond what we need for a reliable
car will be used to provide insurance, AAA membership for roadside assistance
and gas for the over 100 mile round trip they must make daily.
