Hi Gang, I have another prayer request of you. You will all have "Camel's Knees" before this is over. We have made friends with a family in Ohio. They heard of Seth's sucess with the Aloe Gold through a friend of a friend of a friend, and called me. (go figure, a God-thing for sure.) They have a daughter, Devin, and she has been sick since last June. She was diagnosed with UC like Seth. Devin has been VERY, VERY sick. She has had Panceitits 4 times and C-Dif (I think 4 times), she has a feeding tube, and now has a PIC line to help her get the nutrition she needs. Devin is only 14 yrs. old. She and Seth mirror each other in many ways, they are both athletes, scholars, have lots of friends and Seth was 14 when he was diagnosed. Devin has been in the hospital for most of 6 months. After extensive tests, they have now discovered a diesesed area near the stomach in the small intestine which changes her diagnosis to Chrones Diesese. The family has been stearing in the direction that we have just taken with Seth in removing all the Colon. They now are still thinking of it to rid her of the diesesed colon, but will have to keep the rectum and pray it stays healthy as they will have to pull the small intestine down to hook up. Please pray for this precious family. They have gone through SO much and little Devin just wants her life back and so does her Mom, Dad and sister. One of the most Stressful thing that a person can endure is to have a sick child. I believe this family has been pushed to the limit. Therefore on their behalf I ask you to stand in the gap for them and pray and continue to pray until we see the answer. We have never met in person, but look forward to meeting with both of of having healthy kids at our sides. A huge thanks to all of you for being faithful to this request. Vickie & Seth

Hi Seth & Vickie! I'm happy to read all the good reports. I bet you are very happy, Seth, that you are finding a few foods that are working for you. I remember you telling about Devin and will also be praying for her and her family. 6 months. Wow-that is a long time. I think the weather will be looking up after tomorrow. We want you to have a smooth, worry-free ride back home. Have a good night.
