Pray for Cyrus

Sometimes things in life happen that we cannot understand. When illness hits, it can be heartbreaking and terrifying all in the same moment. We try to be strong, press on, and make the best of the life that lies before us, but sometimes life seems to be put on hold while we wait for test results, reactions to medications and the doctor’s short-term and long-term plans.

A dear friend of mine recently received the difficult news that her precious five-year-old son has Leukemia.

Immediately the things in life that seemed big now look very small. The problems that filled our minds yesterday look like frivolous issues that we ought not waste our emotional energy on. A mother’s normal concerns like who their child sat with at lunch or if they gave the teacher the note packed in their bag turn into more serious concerns like how long will the treatment plan last and what will tomorrow look like.

As I go forward with my seemingly normal life, I have a friend whose entire world has been rocked, tipped upside down. Just the thought of what she has been through in the past week brings tears.

Some of you may know my sweet friend Becca and her precious son, Cyrus, and you have already been praying, loving and giving to help this amazing family. I write this mostly for those who don’t know my friend and her son and I ask you to pray. Right now. As you read, pray for Cyrus.

Five-year-old Cyrus faces something many people will never have to – cancer. Maybe you have been personally impacted by the darkness that looms when that word is presented to your family – if so, would you leave a kind comment or a word of encouragement for my friend?

Share this with your prayer warrior friends!

If you would like to donate or be a blessing to the Hiatt family you can do that HERE. You can also follow Cyrus’ journey on Facebook.

Love & Blessings,

Micah
