update on Erik

Elijah's friend Erik has miraculously been getting better little by little...after spinal surgery last week, he can now walk with help and the radiation is working on his brain. Please pray that it would continue to work on the spine and liver & not make him sick...he has many more sessions to go. This is a killer disease called nuroblastoma that he has fought since he was 6 yrs old with a 13 year remission. The nerve endings turn into tumors all over the body. As of right now, it looks like God wants him here a little longer! He is an amazing witness for Christ.
