Prayers for Andrew

Joe & his son Andrew
For anyone joining in late - a good friend of ours (Joe Park) has a 17 year old son named Andrew who was diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia (follow his blog HERE). He was diagnosed with cancer 3 years ago but after remission it has mutated and returned. They found out he had this new cancer literally the day after my wife Kim was diagnosed. We know this was no accident and have found support in our struggle together. You can read our joint battle by clicking on the category Bone Marrow Donor (on sidebar) or just click HERE.  

Please lift up a prayer for Andrew Park. He will find out TODAY if his chemotherapy brought his cancer into remission and if so, he desperately needs to find a bone marrow match to be cured. Please lift him up and if you have not registered to be a bone marrow donor - REGISTER! You can follow his dad's blog HERE if you seek specific prayer requests and updates. Also, if you are in the Northern VA/DC area check out the local drives being run HERE. If you cannot attend or hail from anywhere else in the country please check out www.bethematch.org for great info on how to receive your own bone marrow kit at home - at no cost and get registered. It's so quick and easy and there is so much misinformation out there on the pain and sacrifice (if matched!) is involved - it's very minimal.  You can also read more about the why and how HERE

In His Grace,
Peter & Kim
