Hannah has relapsed with ALL Leukemia after being in remission since October of 2010. She has a hard job ahead of her, but she's definitely a fighter! Hannah is a spunky 13 year old. Tons of personality, and not afraid to tell you what she thinks. She loves her family, and has plenty of family to love her. She's the 11th of 12 children, and has always been a cherished blessing since the day she was born. She loves snuggles and keeps us laughing. We love her and cant hardly bear the thought of her having to go through this again. She needs people's prayers and faith that the pain and suffering associated with this will be minimal. She is being treated at Seattle Children's Hospital.

From De Anna:

Just talked to Cindy – she expressed her gratitude at witnessing the hand of the Lord in their lives and for His direction and His peace. After counseling with doctors today, she and Mark have decided to do a minimal dose of chemotherapy which will start tomorrow. It will just last a few days, after which a drug that is designed to build up Hannah’s immune system will be administered. All this will be done with the hope of beating back the cancer enough that Hannah will be able to fight the pneumonia. Her body just doesn’t have the resources to do that right now. She asked that we pray for Hannah – specifically that she will be able to beat this pneumonia quickly. Their goal is that Hannah recovers enough to be allowed to leave the hospital and ultimately return home so that she can be surrounded by those she loves and all that’s familiar. Cindy says her heart’s desire is for a miracle; complete healing, if that is the Lord’s will. Just as quickly as she said that, she began to acknowledge the countless miracles that have already occurred, thanks to so many of you. Thank you all for your support and prayers.
