My son, Griffin Patrick, is four years old (picture attached). He was
diagnosed in Nov. with cancer in his abdomen stemming from his prostate. It
is a pediatric cancer called rhabdomyosarcoma. He is in aggressive treatment
and is doing well - the cancer has shrunk about 65%.

I am asking for your prayers, and the prayers of the Storm Troopers, for the
complete and total healing of Griffin Patrick in boy mind and soul.
He is a wonderful little person and he has a natural devotion to the Mother
Mary and our Lord Jesus Christ. Please pray for Griffin Patrick.

We are trying to make a decision on the best course and place of treatment
for Griffin - whether it be St. Jude, Sloan Kettering or NCI. We pray for
the option of all three and that we be guided by God in our decisions for
his treatment.

We also ask for prayer that Griffin remain strong physically and
emotionally.

I have attached a picture of a prayer request for Griffin being handed to
the Pope from the commanding officer of my husbands aircraft carrier who
deployed two days after Griffins diagnosis (thank God Louis is here with us
and does not have to be deployed). We feel many blessings - and believe
in the healing power of prayer.

We believe in the Lord's miracles.

Thank you for your prayers for Griffin Patrick. God is listening.

Amen

Leslie
