Update

For all who know Nialle, please pray for him. He is in hospital, with AIHA and is fighting a hard battle, with amazing courage and grace. He is so strong. He never whines. He is my hero.

He needs blood that will match, which he will not react to. With auto immune diseases, it can be a problem to find blood that his body will not reject. So far, the blood they are pumping in is helping him to stay even at about 80. (Normal for him is 160-180) So far, our prayers have been answered! Someone, somewhere, gave blood that was a close enough match that he has had no reaction. Blessed...that's what we are!

If anyone wants to "do" something...and many people have told me to let them know if they can "do" anything...(it's hard when you want to help and you feel like your hands are tied...I know) I would ask that you go to the nearest Red Cross Blood Services and donate some blood. Someone else out there is praying.


Here's Nialle, all dressed for battle, and Liam....and is that an angel on Nialle's shoulder? That explains a lot!
