Prayers, please!

I am asking everyone here to pray, and tell others to pray, for my sister-in-law, Becky. She gave birth a week ago and suffered a completely unexpected, massive heart attack last night. She is in a medically induced coma at a major hospital in Minneapolis for probably the next five days. The doctors are giving her chances of survival at 50/50. On the up side, if she comes out of the coma and off the ventilator, her chances of full recovery are quite good.


Her family blog is here.

Becky is 34 and has 4 kids (five years and under), including one with autism. If you could also pray for her husband and these kids....
